In this video I show you how to take off the rear rotors and brake pads from a 2016 Ford fusion. Video is for demonstrative purposes only and I take no responsibility for any problems that may occur from doing your own brakes. Vehicle should also be put in service mode before any work is done.

Super helpful! Very easy to follow with nothing left out. I just did the rear brakes on my 2016 fusion and it only took me about 20 minutes per side. Thank you so much for the great video!

Man, you are good :) I followed your instructions and I changed my rotors and brake pads this morning but I wasn't lucky at all. Firstly, the automatic maintenance mode worked for the half way only so I had to rotate the piston with a needle nose pliers which was exhausting. Secondly, I tightened the 7 mm bolts and I broke one of those bolts inside the caliper bracket so I had to look for another bracket which is expensive (120 CAD) so I went to a local shop to extract that stupid bolt and that worked well but costed me 30 CAD plus 60 CAD for taxi :D Anyway, I know I wasn't lucky but at least the brakes work well now and I have a great experience now 💪💪 Thanks buddy!

Hate it when the job doesn't go as expected! I'm glad that you were able to save some money by getting the bolt extracted. Plus, you have the knowledge to do it next time and it'll be a lot faster. Thanks for watching the video! Glad it could help.

It's annoying that Ford made it so difficult to put it in service mode, why didn't they just add it to their electronic menu? It's almost like they want self-maintenance to be difficult.

@@RSWarriorBryan the fronts went on pretty good. I noticed when I put the wheel on that theres like 3mm clearance from caliper shim to the rim. Kinda close but no grinding. I used akebono brake pads. The pad seemed pretty thick. I had more clearance before.

@RSWarriorBryan 5 жыл бұрын

I'm always amazed at how close the calipers are to the rims when I put them back on. You should be fine as long as there is not rubbing initially. Over time, as the pads wear away, they'll sink in more. Glad that you were able to get them changed out without any problems!

Your video showed these parts coming off fairly easy after you removed the bolts. There has to be something blocking these from coming off...? I've done brakes before, but not on a Fusion with electronic parking brake.

Is this the model with the electronic brake? I did mine a while back and had no problems with it. Then all of a sudden my electronic e brake “needs maintenance” I assume it’s cause I didn’t put it into rear brake service mode. Has this been the case for anyone else?

Maint Mode: Place key in ignition, turn key to ON position, press accel pedal down and hold down, then PRESS down on PARKING BREAK button (within 5 seconds) turn key OFF and back to ON (holding accel pedal down all along). Screen will verify. To turn off Maintenance Mode, same procedure except you PULL up PARKING BREAK button.

Hey Chris thanks for watching the video. Mine had no problem at all coming off once the bolts were out. May be a dumb question, but is the parking brake on? I haven't put the car into service mode at all to change the brakes and haven't had a problem either time. Putting it into service mode will let you compress the piston as opposed to turning it though. Hope it was a simple problem and you already have figured it out, but if not get back with me and I'll see if I can help. Thanks again!

@chrislent8142 5 жыл бұрын

I was able to get the Caliper off pretty easy...but only after putting it inot service mode. Unfortunately, I appear to have broken the piston. In playing around with this whole service mode thing I ended up having the piston extend all the way out. it is now loose and appears to have come off the threaded rod inside...and a little fluid leaked when I was playing with it. I obviously misunderstood other videos I wateched where it looked like they were saying you MUST put the car parking brake in service mode change the brakes/rotor. I'll be buying a new caliper in the morning! @@RSWarriorBryan

After 30 second you and use finger push piston back to install pad . After you finish lift e-brake up key on off on to switch car back to drive mode . That is done.

"Wow, you really know what you are doing with that car there, too bad I couldn't learn from you since you were blocking 75% of what you were "showing"."
