Thank you so much! I tried my first pair of brakes with electric parking brake and I struggled with compressing the piston at first. Wasted a few hours and once I saw this video I flew through the repair.

I prefer a mechanical parking brake. Auto makers keep giving us stuff we don't want.

Great vid, thanks!

Electronic parking brakes appear in many cases to add needless complexity and cost to what was once a simple and easier to repair system.

Very good explanation, Thanks for sharing.

Wouuuu! amazing tip and video very informative also very clear and very well explain, thanks a lot you just save me from a big mistake to made replacing the rear brakes pads in my pacifica minivan 2019, regards and be safe amigo.

Great video. I remember seen this guys in the advance auto parts training videos

Nice video... I mean really nice video. Well Done!!!👍🏿👍🏿

Most help full..................Thank you......

Very well done demo!! Keep up the good work .

I take the motor off and use a torx to turn the bolt inside the piston.

What you're doing on the bench with the voltage activating the brake motor in forward and reverse. That can also be done on the vehicle using the same concept by remove the plug from the motor and activating the motor with 12 Volts to retract the plunger then manually push the back.piston. I think this method also works without putting the E brake in service mode. Otherwise good video. Oh, I have a 2019 Nissan Rogue.

great content what kind of car was that one in video ?

You can also undo the two Allen keys on the motor and separate it and wind the piston back ,or just put in service mode

Good video

Couple of questions if you don’t mind 😊 How does the ecu “know” when to stop applying power to the motor when the pads make contact with the disc, what stops it continuously pushing. Is it a timed function or does it measure current ? After retracting the piston with the motor then installing new pads, will applying the EPB run the motor until it’s back to its usual on/off state ?

Good job which car this one

Very good

I am confused when do u discont the battery before u service or after

Thanks Mr

I have seen other brake replacement video's where they didn't put the electric E brake in maintenance mode and have to wonder if they had problems after they finished their brake job. It's too bad that some folks don't do their research BEFORE starting their repair.

So. maint mode, then dc the battery before removing caliper?

I try to rewind the epb, but it takes forever for one motor to stop. It is able to push piston out. After rewinding 5 minutes, I am able to push piston in to install new pads. The other motor works fine. Do you know what could cause the problem? Thank you. Thank you for your clear explanation of the working principles of epb motor.

I did this now.Tell me how to get my parking light maintenance from flasher

My car does not come with e-parking... can I remove the existing module (Calliper) and add this setup?

Thanks

1000 thanks and 1000 👍

no wonder the cowboys in the garage messed up my brake caliper

You don't have to take the electric brake motor off or out when changing brake pads or calipers for a new rotors do you???

Volvo and others recommend a 9V battery on the EPB. Does that push the piston all the way back or do I still need to manually push it back after it has retracted?

when replaceing the new caliper do you put the oil in first start the brake motor

Do you use a 12v to bring that piston in and out on the bench test

this is why I had too buy a new scan tool....

Thank you.

Fatalistic video and instructions. However, what can I do to reset the brake fault if I didn't set service mode first and the caliper is extended?? please help

Why can’t Honda Accords have this feature, I’m literally stuck with the Right rear side Electronic parking brake piston stuck and getting a message on the dashboard “Parking Brake Hold problem See your dealer” Any suggestions on if this is a electrical issue or the piston motor going bad?

Just have tge car in natural te cat

Disconnect the battery, then go through the settings. Okay.

my mechanic needs to be retrained as he installed incorrectly 😢
