Brakes sticking

I hooked up my 2010 TT today for the first time since September. I went to pull off and my TV would barely move it. Well about 30ft later I walked around to the passenger side and found the problem. A stuck brakes on the right side. It finally freed up and I was able to move it. Is it possible that it was just sitting up a while and everything is ok once it broke loose or do I have a possible recurring problem. I am headed of of town the weekend on the first trip of the year and I am a little concerned. Thanks

    You need to take it for a short test drive. Manually apply the brakes about half way and drive for a maybe half a mile to clean the magnet brake and drum surfaces and also the brake shoes. After doing that test the brakes for lockup, the same as when you adjust the controller. If you get the lockup again it is time to take a look inside.
