Front brakes dragging

I have a 2005 lx special edition with abs I assume with all the abs fuses. So I figured out that my front brakes were dragging by smelling burnt brakes an the excessive heat so I replaced the brake lines calipers ( yes the pins move freely) and pads and bled the system and adjusted the brake switch but they are still dragging idk if I didn’t bleed them right because of abs or if it’s something different like a master cylinder and help would be appreciated thanks

Re: Front brakes dragging

I am having a similar issue with my son's Civic. 2005 Civic EX. The drivers side caliper was dragging bad. We changed the caliper, caliper bracket and the pins. Replaced brake pads(burnt badly from dragging) and bled the brakes. Took it out for a drive and the same caliper is hanging up and dragging again. I removed the caliper and tried to push piston in and the only way it will move is when I open the bleeder up. Not sure what to check next?
