If your code and warning lights/message do not return to normal after install, you may need to manually move the brake calipers. Take off the motor, use a torx driver of an appropriate size and manually move the caliper from where the motor would attach. Put it in a middle position and then reinstall the motor.

This is a very easy replacement taking less than an hour. Minimal skill and minimal tools required. Diagnosis requires an OBD II code reader that can access live data on parking brake modules. This will allow you to find the correct motor to replace. I used a Foxwell code reader. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Frank you are the MAN I ORDERED THE PART ON AMAZON $40 AND CHANGED IT OUT myself no more parking lights! Couldn't have done this without you 🎉
Great to hear.
What is the part number pls
Thank you for sharing this video sir. I just changed mine yesterday using your guidelines and it was so easy. Please keep it up.
Saved me $600 and was pretty darn simple with your instruction. I did it myself. Thank you!
It's great to hear experiences like this. Makes it all worthwhile.
Thanks for the video! We fixed our parking brake motor in 2 hours. Thank you!
Great.
Thank you so much for putting this video up, my Mercedes park brake alert went on today. Hopefully it’s as simple a yours. Also my ac stopped cooling today
I Changed mine with out removing the tire and I have 265 45Z R20 tire that allow me to go under the car and still get enough space to replace. Thanks for posting this vlog. I had to replace the same through Mercedes that cost me $850.
Very helpful video. Thank you! Had same issue with my 2018 GLE 43 AMG. Bought parts from Amazon and had a local mechanic replaced it for $20. Total cost of part and repair was about $60. Thank you for sharing and thanks to TH-cam for this platform.
Great. I'm glad it helped and saved you some money.
Thanks a whole bunch. I fixed my car woohoo. You are a life saver. Many blessing to you
Great!
Thank you so much for posting this video! I had the same issue with my 2017 Mercedes GLE 43 AMG and your thorough video help me resolve the issue quickly.
Great. You’re welcome.
God bless you, Frank. I really loved working and fixing problems on my car. Muchas gracias!
I'm glad they have helped you.
I must say thanks to your video I saved a whole lot of money!!! THANK YOU! please continue to post videos regarding issues you come across with the GLE350 amd or recommendations.
Great explanation 🙃
Thanks, will do!
Frank, you are my hero, great explanation of your work!
Thank you
Amazing job.
Great video. Similar issues on our 18 GLE. Looked up part number and ordered off Amazon. I went ahead and replaced both since I was already jacking up etc.. One thing of note is I don’t see how anybody could do this without removing the tire unless they had a full lift. Needless to say $100 or so later and both replaced with all warnings cleared. Thanks again!
Yes, you'd need a lift. Definitely easier to remove the tire.
It’s a Ang gle coupe?
I have the same issue in my 2016 gle350 , what the parts number
Thank you!
You're welcome
Thank you sir❤
You're welcome.
👍great work
Thanks
Thank you.
You're welcome!
How about a link to the part and maybe a link to the testing equipment you used. Thanks for the Info.
I have that light on, on my gle63 coupe, I gotta greet the scanner and see what’s up, thank you 🙏🏻
Check out the Launch 431 Elite scanner (check out my video on it). It’s a full function scanner and cheap.
@@letsrolldiyauto1532 will do, thank you
Hi, would the same brake actuator part that’s mentioned in the link be compatible with a Mercedez c300 2016 ? Thank you
I believe it is a different part. But call the Mercedes dealership parts department and ask for the part numbers for both your model and a 2016 W166.
2:51 Nowadays cars are not only confusing but confused : You press the Handbrrake and you get a phone message.
Great video! Could you please tell me if the same process works for a 2018 GLS63 AMG? Thanks a lot! Having the same issue. And when I leave the car in Parking and switch it off, the car moves quite hard forward.
The Mercedes parts website shows that this is the same part number for your AMG, so the answer is yes.
Hi Frank, this video is great, i have 2 actuators sitting in my garage ready to fit both or just the drivers side if the issue resolves with just 1 actuator. I do have a question though which would help greatly, my drivers side is locked on, if i change the actuator on that side donyou know if the replacememt position of the actuators are in an open or closed position? Or does it not matter?
Shouldn't matter. But I's put both actuators in the Parking Brake Off position. If one actuator is faulty, the you may need to double check manually to see if the parking brake is actually off before fitting the new one.
Outstanding explanation from beginning diagnosis to installation and testing. I’d like to know which diagnosis device you are using and how much it costs.
Foxwell GT90. Check the link in the description.
GRACIAS ,, Mecedez has that part for $384dls, I bought it on Amazon for $36dls and I will put it up myself 2018 GLE-350 THAN YOU
You.re welcome
I wonder if you can just swap out the actuator and the code will disappear? The scanner is more expensive than the parts and it’s only for clearing it. Great video though, really informative🤙
Yes the code will disappear.
Hello Frank - do you know ow where the fuse that is in the enrage circuit is located
In the fuse box under the rear passenger seat, there should be a folded paper that has all the fuse locations.
Hi frank just done my e class both sides and won’t calibrated with a diagnostic tool but getting another one to try any advice please Mike Scotland 🏴
There really isn’t a need to calibrate. Just activate and deactivate the break a purple of times. If it won’t go, then deactivate and manually open the brake (the motor needs to be off the vehicle). Replace the motor and it should be good.
I notice you did say it was a Foxwell scanner. Which model, please?
There is a link to it above.
Thanks for video.. did you use the launch scanner or the fox scanner in video. Thank you
Foxwell on the video. But the Launch will do the same thing.
@@letsrolldiyauto1532 thank you is that coupon code for their website I couldn’t find where to use it on Amazon
Same issue I have on my customer care a150 2014
I have the same problem, but my car doesnt start? I need to jump start is it possible because of that ?
Also once I shut it off, won’t start again ?
Unlikely. Use an OBD II reader to see what errors you are getting.
My mistake you did put a link to th part.
I didn't have the link to the Foxwell scanner, so thank you. I added it.
Are they the same actuator for the pass and the driver side?
Yes they are.
@@Drimplant awesome! Thank you! Excellent video by the way!
@@Drimplant last question? I have same car, is there a way to bleed the brakes without any special scanner or software ?
@@Tearflavoredcereal yes. See my video on single person brake bleed. th-cam.com/video/Ysl5MJ1y2SY/w-d-xo.html
Yes. See my video on the pressure brake bleeder.
How long are these Amazon parts lasting?
They’ve lasted since I replaced them.
Please help me my car same like this how can I do my car is c class 300 Benz 2018 😢
The procedure is the same for your C300. Here's a link to the part, but always double check your specific vehicle before ordering. amzn.to/3wzQtJp
Same faults but new Motor didn’t fix it?
Take the motor off, then use a torx or hex driver that will fit into the caliper portion. Manually rotate both directions until it stops. Then put it half way. Now, re-install the motor and it should work. I replaced the one on the other side and the same thing happened. When I did this procedure, it worked fine.
Excuse me, what is the name of the piece?
There is a link to where you can get it.
