One note I'd add is that the wires for the switches you disconnect at 6:40 don't just pull straight out. You have to press the tab down in the middle for them to come out, much like an Ethernet network cable. The dealer wanted to charge $485 to do this repair, but thanks to this video I was able to get the part and do it myself! The genuine Honda part wasn't just the switch on its own, but the switch with the housing, so instead of messing with those four tabs like you do around the 8:00 mark (actually, you cut away, which means it's really hard to do) you just remove two additional screws underneath, press in on two tabs underneath the Brake Hold button, then pop the Brake Hold button into your new housing, then screw that in and reconnect.
Not very long ago a parking brake was a lever with a ratchet and button pulling on some steel cables going to the rear brakes. -bring me up to speed? What was wrong with this?
Thank you brother! Just happened when i parked my car and i was over here rocking my car thinking its seized lmao but my grandma just bought me the module, i also noticed some brown residue on the sticker..light works from the module but it can be getting old
Thank you for watching! For brake hold system if showing in your dash thats totally normal , just press back the brake hold botton , if it’s still showing try to change the whole botton they are different botton.
Thanks man!! Your walkthrough for checking if my ebrake motor really came in clutch I appreciate you uploading this to the internet for the world to see!!! Will be ordering a replacement switch now 💯
The handbrake can't be lowered on the 2019 Honda Civic, what do you think? even though the parking switch has been replaced but still can't get off the handbrake
Thank you so much for this video. after 7 years of ownership the parking brake button gave out. 2016 Honda Civic Ex-T. Was able to properly diagnosed using the steps here and fixed the issue on my parking brake. Just got the part today and installed it 👌
Thank you for the upload, I have the same issue and just bought the same replacement. Do you recommend changing the switch myself? Or pay someone with experience?
@@johncarlows293 i did change it by myself using this video as a guide. I have no experience and I was able to change it successfully without any damage. I would recommend anyone to do it yourself instead of paying 300 (that’s how much they wanted at the dealership😂😂)
Hi. I have this issue with my 2016 civic EX-T. I followed your video and replaced the ebrake, but the light still comes on. The e brake is working just fine. Any suggestions?

Hey John! Appreciate the video, it was super helpful. I ordered a part that initially works but then the release of the parking brake only seems to work when push the cable in with a little extra force. Hopefully it's just a faulty button since I got an Amazon part, do you have a recommendation for the switch you used by any chance?
When I got the car is already in there , but I think if you have the sport model they’re come the red dash, I only know how to change the screen color on the infotainment screen.
Try to figure out first if your emergency brake motor is working before you do anything else, And if it is , try the one I did, change the emergency parking botton.
my issue is every time I drive my car makes a beeping sound and my dash has (electric parking break problems and other isssues that pop up on the dash so if I replace the parking break hopefully it’ll take off the issues on the dash and the beeping sound
honestly it just happened to me outside the wendys parking lot, luckily i had food otherwise I would have lost my shit lol but anyway, all I did was wait 30 min or so, watched a couple videos like this, and then tried it again, it turned on, and then made my way to autozone down the road to have them charge my battery which was at 60%

Thanks very much for this video John. This made my day I replaced switch myself and saved $300 which is the quote Honda dealer gave me for this task 😊
You’re very welcome glad my video is helpful!
Bless you ! This worked with a $15 switch from Ali express.
What a legend! Saved me $400. I only spent $20 bucks.
Thanks! Fixed the electric parking brake problem, it took less than 30 minutes to replace the switch.
You’re welcome 🙂

thanks very helpful!! My brake hold and emergency brake error is showing will it need two different sensors?

Thanks a lot. I couldn’t park because my driveway is on a steep incline but thanks to your vid I did the brake hold trick and then turned off my car.
You’re welcome, I’m glad my video was helpful!
Just had this issue happen with more alarms than just the parking brake. Charged the battery and everything was back to normal.

You’re welcome man! I’m glad it helps 😊
Si funciona increíble, me paso lo mismo y cierto el motor funciona. 🎉
Thanks for sharing. Is it still safe to drive to the workshop as i am not confident to fix it myself. Thanks.

Probably the problem is the handbrake motor , but I am not certainly sure.
Does Advanced auto parts store have these parts? Or buy them from dealer/ on-line? I just want to make sure I get the correct parts.
I bought the parts in amazon, so far no issue.
@johncarlows293
I charged the battery at Advanced auto parts. I'm going to install it. I hope it helps.
Thanks

Thank you for the upload, I have the same issue and just bought the same replacement. Do you recommend changing the switch myself? Or pay someone with experience?
You’re welcome,
If you’re not comfortable doing it, ask someone with experience,
But try it first, is not that hard to do it.

Is anyone able to provide a link to the Amazon item that I can order for replacement. I am in Canada.
Hello here is the link, a.co/d/3l3Mrj0

Hi. I have this issue with my 2016 civic EX-T. I followed your video and replaced the ebrake, but the light still comes on. The e brake is working just fine. Any suggestions?

What’s the name of the part? Please?

Dónde consigo esté video en español 😢
All I did was jump my battery and it started working again… should i still replace my parking brake switch if it happens again?
Try to check your e-brake switch if it happen again , because mine get burn that’s why it stop working.
All the parking brake switches on amazon say 2016-2018.. will those work for my 2021 civic?
What about 2018 civic Manuel
Muchas gracias
What do I do if the brake motor isn't working like you said 😞
Just replace the whole brake motor assembly, if that the case
Lifesaver
How to remove the switch into the main vessel?😢
I replaced my rear brakes now my break system light is on been trying get it to leave cuz it’s nothing wrong with my car
How you make your gas meter blue mine is red ?
When I got the car is already in there , but I think if you have the sport model they’re come the red dash, I only know how to change the screen color on the infotainment screen.
I can't figure it out, do I need to remove the P part? I just need for the Brake System to go away.
Try to figure out first if your emergency brake motor is working before you do anything else,
And if it is , try the one I did, change the emergency parking botton.
Awesome video thanks brother
Thanks for the save man
Thank you!
I think getting the parts from Honda dealers would be good.
my issue is every time I drive my car makes a beeping sound and my dash has (electric parking break problems and other isssues that pop up on the dash so if I replace the parking break hopefully it’ll take off the issues on the dash and the beeping sound
Try first unplug your battery, if the beeping sound will go out , if not change the parking brake botton, is not that expensive
One down John😎
I had this problem and relized i unplugged a wire while vacuuming under the driver seat.
Manual parking break is better than ebrake
Pa shawarawt naman bro! ❤️
honestly it just happened to me outside the wendys parking lot, luckily i had food otherwise I would have lost my shit lol but anyway, all I did was wait 30 min or so, watched a couple videos like this, and then tried it again, it turned on, and then made my way to autozone down the road to have them charge my battery which was at 60%
❤❤❤
Dealership would have charged you $950 👍
Smh that's high way robbery 😢
Part number plz?
Thank you so much for your video it help me a lot.👍
