Default Qiuck replys needed to rear caliper prob

Hi yall, the offside (UK righthand drive) rear caliper is not grabbing the disk when the handbrake is on, its grabbing the nearside tho.......the actual mechanism for the handbrake on the caliper is moving and you can see the caliper moving when the hanbrake is applied, but it doesnt grab....i removed the caliper and turned the piston to take up the slack between the caliper and pads but still doesnt grab?????? any ideas. Its a civic 93 3dr esi, calipers all round and just as a thought, i rebled all the system and the brakes are very good now but still handbrake problem.

Many thanks, Spevie
