Default Clogged brake caliper - HELP!

Hi. One of my brake calipers is clogged somewhere inside itself. The caliper has 2 lines/hoses. Only one of the lines is clogged. Even if i remove the bleeding nozzle and push the brakes hard nothing comes out. IT,S NOT A BRAKE HOSE OR A BRAKE LINE, HOSES ARE NEW. The clogging is inside the caliper. Can i fix it somehow or i should get a new caliper?

Rebuild kits are cheap, you can try that


Make sure fluid is actually getting to the caliper too, aka unscrew the hose going to it
