how do you fix a fishing reel that stops locking?

Question: my reel stops locking like its brakes broke or something its a baitcast

Answer: theres a set pin in your reel that falls down to lock it. usually the inside of a reel get dirty/greasy and this pin sticks in the up position. try removing the reel handle and uscrew the tension control and soak with a high quality reel oil. this will sometime clean out the reel and free the pin. if this does not work you will probably need to take it to a reel repair place.
