do you have a good firm pedal if the plunger is not working correctly in the master cylinder it will not pull back the fluid for the piston in the caliper to release remove your caliper and try working the Piston back and forth a few times and gently press the break and see if they are working properly then reinstall I had a new one not released and my boss drove it home and chewed up the new brake pads and the rotor because the Piston would not release in the caliper for some unknown reason but the other three old ones did so I wound up changing out the master cylinder and cleaning out the lines and that seemed to fix it
