So I lost my left front caliper on my '98 Porsche 986 Boxster.

The two caliper bolts completely came undone (I suspect lack of blue thread lock used when rotors were changed about 3 years ago).

The caliper rotated forward and the hard line from the caliper to the soft line was completely sheared off.

I was able to pull over and avoid an accident.

I reattached the caliper, replaced the hard line and re-bled the system.

I did notice that the ABS(?) line was damaged, See pic:



The pedal is now firm but the front pad is dragging. After a short ride the rotor is hot and you can hear and feel the pad dragging.

The damaged electrical ABS (?) line extends from the caliper up into the wheel well into the master cylinder area where it joins what appears to be the main wiring harness. It does not seem to have a connector before extending up into the wheel well.

Is this part replaceable? Do you think this is contributing to the stuck pad? Should I replace the caliper and pad?

Any advice is appreciated.
