What is wrong when the front left brake caliper is sticking on a 1997 Mercury Villager?

Possible problem with the caliper, its slides, or collapsed hose. Check for ABS codes. Check that the ABS modulator is not holding pressure to the brake. Check for clogged line or junction. Also there is a check valve on the master cylinder which can hold pressure to both the front left and right rear brake. It is called a "dumping unit" in the diagram, but I have not found a use for it, or a proper explanation for why it is there.
