My brake pedal does not return up when pressed down. I have to physically pull it back up(with ease). The brakes work/stop as normal. The pedal feels perfectly normal and not spongy when pressed. I don't think this model accord carries a spring on the brake pedal as far i can see from the service manual and brake pedal diagram.

Any help will be appreciated.

 

Sounds like you may need to bench bleed the master cylinder.

 

So it turns out the problem was the brake pedal adjustment on the brake booster rod. Re-adjusted the it so the pedal will be higher and now it works perfectly fine.
