Handbrake and foot brake use different callipers - the handbrake only works on 1 set of wheels (front or rear) whereas the foot brake uses separate callipers on all 4 wheels. In your case, I would guess the handbrake calliper on the affected wheel has failed. Other, foot brake callipers and disks obviously working OK.
how do you change the handbrake cable on a 1997 Toyota rav4
Release the handbrake, pump the brake pedal a few times to settle the brakes, then apply and release the handbrake a few times. The rear brakes are self adjusting so be careful not to over do it or you will end up locking the your drums. If this does not work, then you need to get the tools out. Jack the rear of the car up, use axle stands for safety. Slacken off the handbrake cable adjuster nut, lift handbrake lever up 4 clicks, tighten handbrake cable adjuster nut until it takes up the slack, check rear drums rotate freely, job done.
Behind the handbrake lever there is an ashtray Take out ash tray Losen off smallbolt (3mm alen key) and you will see adjuster nut Ensure your car is on flat ground and wont roll away Release handbrake and tighten up adjuster nut till you get around 3 or 4 clics when you pull the lever up Check you have not adjusted to much by putting in first gear and lift clutch to just past biting and feel for back brakes sticking on Hope this helps G
THE FORD GUY SAYS` remove leather gater from hand brake you will see a 10mm nut, tighten nut a few turns then try and a bit more and try again, you want 4/5 clicks, good luck!

this is for a peugeot 306 made in 1999 (phase 3): to do this you need to remove the long plastic bit that surrounds the handbrake and the gear stick. When you've done this you'll be able to get access to the adjuster nut on the bracket with the handbrake cable riunning through round the back of the handbrake. 1) remove the rear ashtray. 2) remove the two screws (which have torx screw heads) that can be seen in where the ashtray came out from. (they're holding some of the plastic bit down. 3) remove the gearstick gaitor. do this by using a spade head screwdiver or an old credit card to lever the gaitor upwards, working around the edges. 4 )remove the 2 nuts that hold the platic bit down that are under where the gaitor was(1omm nuts) 5)the long plastic bit can now be removed. pull it upwards to let it over the two bolts at the gearstick, and backwards to remove it off the plastic tabs at the front. Adjusting the adjuster nut (13mm): it's probably easiest to get to this sat in the back of the car. 1) locate the adjuster nut at the back of the handbrake under the grey foam stuff. 2) take off the handbrake. (Make sure your car isn't going to role anywhere/ chock your wheels/get someone to step on the foot brake. 3)turn the nut clockwise to tighten the handbrake. You want to get the handbrake to be fully on at somewhere between 6 to ten clicks when you pull it up. 1) put it all back to together.
