It work for my 19 edge curious why on my old vw cc I just unplug the power and manually reversed with a metric torx? Why would this not work by just unplugging it?
I’ve had issues with a 2016 Mazda CX-5 parking brake the scan tool wouldn’t put it in maintenance mode so I figured out you can remove the electronic motor and service your brakes that way then reinstall I’ve had no issues and have done this to all makes and models
Hello. I had the rear brakes, calipers and rotors on my 2016 Edge replaced. After that work was done my parking brake malfunction light was on and flashing. The repair tech saw this but I needed to pick up the car. They said the parking brake is functioning properly and assume it is an electrical issue. My questions remains: there was no issue before the repair, now the light is on. I am taking it back to have them sort out the malfunction light. Any thoughts on why this is would be occurring? I’m not trying judge the repair guys but it is hard not to be skeptical when we errors arise from repairs. If you have time, your thoughts are appreciated.
If the tech says he followed the reset procedure, there's no reason not to believe him. The light most commonly comes on after a repair when the procedure is not followed it could also be a short or faulty actuator.
Very helpful. You saved us a lot of time and money
Thanks for the steps!!
You’re the man

Hello Daniel, will this method fix when it says Parking Brake Malfunction?
It could possibly never hurts to try
Thank u
So confusing do you still have your foot on the gas?
Yes
What if I missed this step before I replaced the pads
If you're not having any issues you should be fine.
@@danthebrakeman it's making a grinding noise after being changed.
What the hell does crank it mean. Still can’t figure this out. Fokkk help meee
I have an alarm that keeps going off constantly related to the parking brake. Any ideas?
Honestly not sure with diagnosing it. You can try to run through this procedure and see if it will reset.
Did you ever find out what it was? Mine keeps beeping at me saying release parking brake when it’s not
Same here.
