A super video, I had a similar problem with the parking brake on my 2012 Nissan Leaf, stripped everything down just like you but found No corrosion, tested with battery on bench everything fine worked perfectly, refitted everything but still would not work at all,
Was unable to find Any information on the whole parking brake system and noted on EV car forums there was also complete lack of knowledge of this problem and talk of NISSANS quote of £2500 to repair the problem !
Absolutely ridiculous this unfortunately is where NISSAN fail there customers, I was able to repair the fault eventually at a total cost of NIL to me.
keep up the good work, cheers.
How did you fixed it?
yes how did you fix it?
Bump the "how did you fix it"...
Hello ,i buy Leaf in Norway . And have same problem . Mechanical all work ok My be you can send info
Very good video. Thanks for posting!
Tusen takk for videoen,den sparte meg for 25000 norske kroner
Bare hyggelig🙂
Which size drill bit did you use?
Is there much difference in procedure between shifting a brake cable with a mechanic pedal-handbrake and this what you just did?
Heisann. Har samme feil på min 2012 Leaf. Du ser jo relativt dreven ut på reparasjon av dette, er det noe du også utfører for andre? Mvh Espen
Hallo, I've done the same but had a slight different problem. Fixed itand it works, but im getting a fault error saying tension sensor signla invalid. Ive got no clue what this might be. I tried adjusting the tension underneath, but then it doesnt brake 😅
Hello, it's a pleasure to greet you, thank you for your video, it helped me a lot, but I see that you use a diagnostic tool but do you have any special programs? Can you give me some more advice? I did everything mechanically but it still does not remove the error, although I have used another ELM 327 diagnostic system, it does not allow me to remove the error on the car's dashboard.
I used Leaf Spy Pro and diagnostic tool was Konnwei KW902. Good luck🙂
Can somebody tell me the name of the part he puts back in at 7:48 please, ive lost mine.
Hei,
Flott video. Har en 2012 med fungerende elektrisk håndbrekk.
Skal skifte klosser og skive. Vet du om jeg må "kalibrere" håndbrekket etterpå? Isåfall kan man gjøre dette i leafspy pro?
No, you don't need to calibrate it. Only adjust shoes by turning an adjusting bolt with screwdriver through a hole in brake disc.
What are you using to heat up the screws around 4:30? Are you doing that because of threadlocker?
Thanks for question. I'm using an induction heater mainly because of corossion of aluminium housing. Without heating the screw would brake.
Thanks for your reply. I live in the southern US, so I don’t have any corrosion. I’m halfway tempted give this a try. Thanks so much for your video. I may have more questions if I decide to go for it.
I don't have a error code reader. But, when I apply the parking brake, the LED flashes red, nothing happens. Is this the same behavior as the car in this video?
Do you have to reset the error code for it to start working again? The LED just flashes as before after the fix, and it does not even try.
I've removed the electronic braking unit and opened the lid, and it was almost stuck, moved slightly in one direction only when I hooked it up directly to the battery.
Fixed that problem, and it now moves all the way in both directions. But no change after hooking it up to the car.
Hi,
Nice video.
Is it possible to buy parts?
Motor and part that motor is holding on?
I'm not aware of it but you can try to buy a used one and fix it or use parts from it. There are many that were replaced at the dealer and just thrown away.
Thanks for this video. I had to manually release the electronic parking brake after 12v battery failure. Parking brake light is blinking now on dash. Would the parking brake be 'reset' if I apply power to it with a 12v battery like you do at 3:15?
I'm afraid you have to delete fault memory to get it to work again.
@@trashprojects2042 Thanks for reply. I probably will have to go to a mechanic for that? I tried clearing the DTC's with Leafspy Pro but that didn't solve the problem. Also resetting system by disconnecting battery for 5 minutes didn't do the trick.
@@trashprojects2042 Visited mechanic and they couldn't access the EHS system. Said they needed to keep it for a day to find the fault. Not keen on doing that as they probably won't be able to get rid of the error. Have reset all DTC's with Leafspy Pro and am only left with U1000 00C0 EV/HEV CAN Comm Circuit, P31B9 00C0 EV/HEV and U1000 0009 METER CAN Comm Circuit faults. So no parking brake DTC but still have the blinking parking light on dash with, as a result, the yellow and red system fault lights.
Hi! Thanx for posting this video!
Im in the verge og dismanteling and trying to fix, as described in your video.
Bought a leafspy app and dongle, and tried to reset fault, but nothing happend.
Does the plug, anfd leafspy has to be activated when dismanteling the motor, as in your video?
Best

Hi! No, LeafSpy doesn't have to be connected. Just fix the problem, check with external battery before you close it and then reset faults after mountig and adjusting wires. Check also if wires are not stuck. Good luck with your project!
@@trashprojects2042 thanx! Is it possible to test the motor without dismanteling everything?
3:11 Sure, just connect a 12v battery to the connector, remember to use a fuse:-)
Hi! i greased up the wires, and ran the handbrake engine, via battery back and forth a couple of times, and then it magically worked!
But after 5 tries, the error came back. It was a scratching sound, that came from the manual release wire. Maybe it was stuck in a middle position? Now the handbrake runs smoothly, and had to erase dtc code to make it work.
Hopefully this will hold! Thanx for helping us out with great videos!
Great video and about to embark on this myself! I’ve got the unit out, but what fuse did you use to test with the battery and which holes in the unit’s plug? Bottom two?
Also, did it matter how far in or out the handbrake was engaged when retesting and installing or does it recalibrate itself when connecting back on engaging?
You can test with 10A fuse, two largest holes.
No, it doesn't matter, it adjusts itself when activated.
@@trashprojects2042 to check the bottom two?
@@trashprojects2042 I’ve used a 30amp as it came with a cable, would that be an issue?
Hei, flott video. Jeg har selv en modul som er kjørt helt til endes. Forstår det slik at den da kuttet spenningen slik at man ikke får kjørt motoren overhode. Forsvant alle feilmeldinger etter du midtstilt holderen på gjengestangen? Jeg har demontert hele modulen og skal til med å skru den fra hverandre.
Exactly, all faults disappeared after adjusting, deleting faults and trying to activate parking brake. Good luck with your project! :-)
TrashProjects Just done working on mine. Deleted fault using LeafSpy. Everything is good now. Thank your for informative video👍🏻
I'm glad I could help!
Hva bruker du for diagnosis?Power Obs Konnvei?Hvor kan eg få kjøpt denbe?
I use Konnwei KW902. You can get it on finn.no
IS A 2013 THE SAME THANK YOU
Hello, what is the name of the program in phone that you used?
It's LeafSpy Pro.
What is the root cause of this problem? Is it that plastic gear that is seized? Out of adjustment?
In my case it was this plastic gear that has seized. I don't know why, there wasn't any rust there but boring it out helped and it still works :-)
@@trashprojects2042 Thanks for the reply👍 You made a very good video! It is hard to film what you are doing without blocking the camera😊
@@trashprojects2042 This was not at all clear in the video as it ran at warp speed with no caption at all. I surmised that later that it must have just been very tight on the axle, but at first I thought that the worm gear teeth on the rear of the white sprocket wheel was stripped and chewed to pieces :D
