As it happens, we had the same problem when changing a caliper
on my CGT last weekend. The thing worked fine on the 4000 we
wrecked, yet once we put it on the CGT, there was no handbrake
action, although the cable moved freely.
Turns out that the piston needs some time to settle itself. I drove
around for a while, made a few hard stops to heat up the brakes
and after that, everything was fine.
