Pinched brake line by his newly installed shock. Allowed the brake caliper to grab the rotor, but kept the pressure on because of the pinched line.

That pretty much is it in a nut shell, darn shock resivor had pinched the rubber brake line and abs wire. this caused the abs to flash a code and the brake to not release the pressure..
