Replaced pads on all 4 wheels, on 2019 Mazda 3 not long ago. That was my first experience with a EPB. Took me a little longer than I had anticipated to get that figured out lol.
I have a 17mm spanner that is ground down to half thickness, because it was needed to hold some half nuts that were used to set float on a machine. Needed as the half nuts are on the bottom, and the top is a dome nut. Float needed was 0.25mm with a tolerance of 0.05mm, so the Belleville washer stack was compressed to the right force.
@3:28 In my experience, the vehicles where the parking brake cable manually actuates the caliper are the ones where the piston (generally) needs to rotate while being pressed in. The exception is the NA/NB Miata, which has a hex driven gear to adjust the caliper piston (the gear is accessed after removing a small plug bolt on the inside of the caliper).
15:36 I take off the motor part of it,have to make sure it is in all in the way installing it.Gearwrench warranty,can do it online on their site.Have to submit a picture.Send you a new tool.Some auto parts stores such as Napa will warranty Gearwrench
"nach fest kommt ab" means after tightening for example a bolt it gets tight and if you continue to tighten like a lunatic it breaks. Might be a new one 😂
I've had to warranty a few Gearwrench wrenches and went online to their site. I think there's a section for that on that site. Anyway, it's a mail in thing. Stinks but that's the way they do it. Love the wrenches but they aren't for getting too tough with.
Noticed that you did not show that you cleaned and relubricated the slide pins on the caliper bracket, sometimes they get dry and crusty and not allow the moving parts to move.
The pads slide freely, so there isn't any rust being built up to worry about. You're right though in many places people do get rust. Thankfully, where we are it isn't an issue. Thanks for pointing that out & watching the channel. Keep wrenching 🔧
Ugh, I have a dozen questions already. Will all scanners perform this on all cars, or do you need a specific scanner for each car? How do you keep the car in neutral when you power the car off? I have a 2020 Honda Accord with the 2 liter engine and 10 speed automatic.

Glenn Bob!!! We were just talking about you & poof you're name comes up on the channel 😉 I'm going to drop you an email. I had a crazy week with Dr appointments. I hope you are well. Thanks for your continued support. Love - Meg
Well, you sold me on NOT buying A S60. Electric/electronic parking and it doesn't use an actual key for the ignition. Is that a sway attached to the relatively flimsy backing plate of the brakes? Have a wonderful day Mr. Kenny.
Those Volvos have a really annoying BMS system..... our S60 have had that message for two years now and it is only recently that the battery has been showing signs of weakness. Apparently it is programmed to know the age of the battery and that is more important than the real condition of it.🤔

But ya got it figured out! That's great. Keep wrenching 🔧
we have a drinking game going for when you say ok
Go bananas 😂
We use to do that with the Bob Newhart show years ago, take a shot every time they said Bob. Drunk as skunks, lol
You guys will be wasted pretty quickly! What do you do for "bananas"?
I learnt something today! I have seen those little pins on brake pads and always thought they were from the manufacturing process.
I’m ready to learn more from Kenny.
Hello Mr Kenny hope y'all had a great day.Raining here today again 😅 but at least I get out of yard work 😂
Hi Bobby! I hope you have something fun planned!

Great video Kenny .
Thank you for your kind words. I appreciate you. Keep wrenching 🔧
I did Hyundai yesterday rear the rotors were gone and the pads pressed against each other all the way out had to use a 4 lb hammer to get pads out
Years ago I had a caliper lock up on my 94 Cherokee,smoked like crazy,hot as hell,piston locked up,had to hammer that off.
Yikes! Keep wrenching 🔧
You can use a 9 volt battery with leads to run to the plug on the electric brake in or out.
honda you need to turn piston to go back on back brakes

Thanks for the info. I like your sn toolaholic 😃
Hey Kenny why do you think the rotters look so bad ?….. Thanks for all your hard work for us !
Age, wear & tear. It probably sat for a while & some rust built up too. Keep wrenching 🔧
German torque spec: Gutentite
I thought I was the only one who said that lol
Ah! Then you know about "KEEEPZEMFRUMFLOPPEN"...

Ya definitely can't go bananas with them. I will check out their website to do an exchange. Thanks for the Intel! Keep wrenching 🔧
Pull slide pins out, wipe them off and relube? Anyway, nice job Kenny.
Noticed that you did not show that you cleaned and relubricated the slide pins on the caliper bracket, sometimes they get dry and crusty and not allow the moving parts to move.
You're right. Normally, I would have but they were sliding perfectly. Thanks for watching the channel & keep wrenching 🔧
When they move as freely as that and the boots looks good i would not mess with them either.👍
Kenny what about the rust behind the clips?

You don’t check and re-lube the slide pins?
Ace Hardware warranties gear wrench I think

Try Grainger for gear wrench warranty if the sell them they will replace it

Advance auto parts should warranty them.
Good to know. Thanks so much. Keep wrenching 🔧
Leave it up to Volvo to complicate something as simple as a bowl of corn flakes. 😀
Warranty/ Napa any one that sells them.
Nice
OK 😂

It makes you wonder what the engineers were thinking. Thanks for your comment & watching the channel. Keep wrenching 🔧
I hate those foreign makes with bolts instead of studs. That rotor/caliper/pads are in nasty shape.
