For those who still cannot remove the back of the console after removing the screws, remove the mat at the bottom of the storage area in the console and remove the back 2 screws underneath.THEN it will come off. My 2004 Honda Civic EX had this.
since the right rear wheel has less drag than the left you would actually go in and ajust the adjuster on the drum brake for the right rear wheel. take off the wheel, there's probably a rubber plug, take off and spin wheel with a flashlight and eventually you will see the adjuster (looks like a gear wheel) to adjust it. spin it with a flathead up or down. if you can't see adjuster take off caliper, then caliper mounting bracket, then the drum. you'll see it then. clean everything with brake cleaner since you made it this far and sand the inside of the drum where the shoes make contact, sand the shoes a little. clean with brake cleaner. adjust that adjuster and spin wheel hub with hand while adjusting.
Mine doesn't look like yours when you reveal the ebrake cables underneath the console. My driver side cable seems to be longer than my passenger side. Any reason as to why they seem to be arranged that way? Also, my driver rear drags more than passenger side. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for this video, 05 Civic Ex coupe special edition, found the console screws inside the center media storage but this is an easy fix I’ve been avoiding for too long for no reason
Can you make a video on how to check the e brake cable in the back like on where to connect it because mine isn’t connected or if there any other videos that you know of?
these hand brakes seem to be overkill with the size.I've looked all thru here and can't see any modification to make it more compact.is the technology not out there yet or am I looking in the wrong places.or u have no idea?
2001 Honda Civic DX My emergency brake light won't go off. Had all new breaks put on all the way around. New drums an shoes in the back. Front I put new rotors , new break pads. And new master cylinder. Still fiils like air in the lines, while e break light won't go off. Car is on, push on break pedal, you hear a click coming from e break lever . Only when car is on. Stops ok I guess, but it still feels and hears like grinding in the back. Heavy , fat foot, break pedal still goes to the floor. Either the e break lever isn't fully releasing all the way? The pin is stuck? Or a while cyclinder is frozen , broke, and isn't letting any fluid get to the shoes in the back. Possibly even a bad caliper in the front? Now break fluid leaking, and it's not the break booster. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to push the peddle at all.
Sorry for the late reply. I suppose you dont have to. The way I did it would allow you to know how much pressure youre applying to the brakes. 1 click- low....7 -12 clicks would be max Pressure applied.

It doesn't use drums.
@@brojack101 yes, this vehicle uses drum brakes in the rear

Is that rear disc or drum thanks
Rear drums
do hou need go lift up the rear end to adjust or can you do it while its on the ground?
Thanks. Good video but turn your phone side ways man. Lol
Sorry this wasnt a plan out recording lol
How did you get the arm rest cover out!!?? I removed the two screws on each side. I tried pulling and pushing. It won't come out.
Bunongboyz give it a hard tig at the top it should pop out. the retaining clips is whats holding it in with the screws
oh wow i didnt know they charge that much and No I dont have any content as of now on that repair
I would say you wouldn't have too unless your civic has calipers in the rears.

Thanks!! And I got one more question, what size your rims are? I like it!
16s
@@Garagejunky09 and the tire is 16"......?
Yep
Hey man, good video, very helpful with no extra bullshit. Thanks!
Mine pulls the passenger side more than the drivers side which makes the adjuster go on an angle
Cool now I can whip my car and then end up slamming into a tree. Thank you.
Thanks for the video. Very helpful
had a question can you just use the p break light to adjust? or is that not a good idea?
No, the E-brake light will go off when it looses or has ground contact. It doesnt represent which position the handbrake is in.
Many thanks.
Do you have 2005 civic motor mount replacement video?
GOD BLESS YOU BROTHER AND THANK YOU ✌👽☝
Thanks. Great and completer video.
