Start by checking your cable hasn't melted and fused together under the rear turbo.

Have someone work the h/b lever whilst you take s look. If OK, search function should find you the procedure for adjustment. If not OK, new h/b cable.

Mine was doing the same last year. Cable had been tightened to its max.
1 hour labour to loosen it back up, adjust the shoes properly and re-tighten.
Hopefully yours will be the same.
