Mr Nuno Fix...Thanking you for your time and ability in making this video.It has helped me out on more than one occasion and will be a constant reference for me and many.Greetings from Ireland.
Thanks for an excellent demonstration and explanation! I was also not able to engage maintenance mode for the EPB. You made what would have been a challenge in an easy job!
Nice one, just wanted to say perfectly explained, better than my regular mechanic , i just done the job and yes the metal was all rusty, no grease anywhere so followed your video and now the brakes are great. thx NUNO :)
Nuni that was a very good and helpful explanation. I Like the part where you removed the electronic parking brake from the caliper. Nice tip. You can also set the electronic parking brake in maintenance mode without a scan tool, using a combination of actions as follows: Activation: Set the ignition to ON. Press and hold the accelerator pedal and place the EPB switch to the RELEASE (downward) position. Continue to hold the accelerator pedal and EPB. Set the ignition to OFF, then set the ignition to ON within 5 seconds. Continue to hold the accelerator pedal and the EPB switch. The EPB system will be deactivated, preventing parking brake application until service has been completed and maintenance mode has been deactivated. The yellow electronic parking brake indicator will be illuminated and maintenance mode will display on the message center. Set the ignition to OFF, then release the accelerator pedal and EPB switch. When replacing rear brake pads in maintenance mode, the brake caliper piston must be compressed into the caliper housing. The brake caliper piston does not have to be rotated while compressing the piston. Deactivation: Carry out the following service mode deactivation procedure to activate the EPB system. Set the ignition to ON. Press and hold the accelerator pedal and place the EPB switch in the APPLY (upward) position. Continue to hold the accelerator pedal and the EPB switch. Set the ignition to OFF, then set the ignition to ON within 5 seconds. Continue to hold the accelerator pedal and the EPB switch. Release the accelerator pedal and the EPB switch. The EPB system will fully apply and release the parking brake to guarantee sufficient air gap between the rear brake pads and brake disc. Whether you have the start stop button or a key start system the same procedure applies.
Update changed them yesterday step by step with this video with no issues what so ever and no lights on the dash just like Nuni said there wouldn't be saved my self a lot of money doing it my self thank you so much once again I will be following your videos just incase there's more to come for the ford mondeo mk5 😀👍👍👍👍👍
My mondeo is keyless and wouldn’t go in service mode so this video helped massively, I couldn’t understand why the old inner pad had worn at an angle? And not evenly like the outta pad but new pads are on and all working great 👍 thanks for the insight
Sometimes the person before fit the pads without cooper grease or maybe bad quality pads. Thanks for watching and happy this video keeps helping people. 😊
Hello nuno, I have the ford mondeo of the 2016 electric brake, but I do not enter the maintenance mode,to change rear pickups, I understand that doing it as you will have no problems with abs, thank you,,, I love your video and I think it is very interesting, for all fans of meccanica, until soon
Verry good instruction, if the electronic brake will not go into service-mode-position with the brake-switch methode or you don't have the service-pc. Thanks for that!
I have service scanner. This is to show u don't need the scanner for it. I do mercedes, bmw, vauxhall fords vw audis all the same method. Its easier for me ☺️
I tried to retract the piston using the online methods with the park brake button and accelerator but it didn't work. Your manual method worked perfectly. Unfortunately, before I saw this video, I blew a piston when I stupidly pulled the handbrake on while the caliper was off. The piston extended all the way and popped out. I was able to put it back but unfortunately I stuffed up the mechanism. Was getting a handbrake warning and non stop chime while driving. Bought a second hand one and fitted it myself. When the oil on the old faulty one drained out, out came about 50 tiny ball bearings and springs. Mechanism busted. So, it was an expensive lesson. Don't pump your brake of hit the handbrake switch while the calipers is out 😣.
I did the same thing, piston came all the way out, little springs and ball bearings everywhere 😢 had to get a new one as second hand ones wasn't available £300 quid but a £70 rebate for old one, now I have a binding issue with the other one. 😢 new pads, and cleaned and greased up, but still binding the disc somehow
@@darrenpage2231 could it be that the new pads just need to bed in a little to give that but if clearance? Hopefully it's just something as simple as that.
@joud360 well I did think that, but I have taken them out ( brembo) and put different ones in , to see if it makes a difference... if not disc could be warped
I have a question for you, I have the same vehicle, but I accidentally turned the caliper piston counter clockwise. Now I have the error message on my dash, do I open the caliper housing to reset it? The piston did go in with the tool, but now the limited brake service light is on. How can I fix It? Scan tool? Opening the caliper housing? I did put my car in service mode before I started my brake service
Hi. If you did put into brake service the motors should go all back and then what u need to do is only push the piston in. And fit new pads and then after all wheels all put on u should turn off the service brake and the calipers should back to normal position. If now u got a error you will need a scanner. What u can do is now leave the handbrake off and turn off the car. Disconnect the battery. Do what i did do, remove the motors and turn it to the correct position till locks like i did on the video and put motor on. Do the same another side. Put all together and reconnect the battery. It should back to normal. But before all this if you got a scanner check 1st the codes. If u don't jave a scanner then follow my procedure. ☺️
I fixed it bro 🥳😎👊🏽, you are the man, thank you for the help and reaching out to me in a timely manner, just a fyi, the scanner tool allowed me to reset the error and then I was able to take the car out of maintenance mode. You saved me a lot money bro, god bless to you and your family, thanks again bro 👊🏽😎
Hola nuno, tengo el ford mondeo del 2016 freno electrico, pero no entro en el modo de mantenimiento,para cambiar pastillas traseras, entiendo que haciendolo como tu no tendre problemas con el abs, gracias,,, me encanta tu video y creo que es muy interesante, para todos los aficionados a la mecanica, hasta pronto
Hey Bro, I need your help, I just got a limited brake service message on my dash. I ran the scanner and it gave me codes, C2005 and C1034. I replaced the actuator motor on the right side thinking that would solve the problem but it still has those codes, I’ve tried almost everything from disconnecting the battery to erasing the codes, but nothing seems to fix it. My last option is to replace the wiring harness on the right side since that’s where the code is coming from, but I dunno. You helped me a few months ago when I stuck, kinda hoping you had an idea on what it could be?
Hi Nuno. During the trip, my brake blocked and I disassembled it and tried to work it out and lubricate it. I screwed in the piston because I didn’t have the tools to squeeze it, but I didn’t know I had to put the handbrake in service mode. And now my handbrake doesn't work when I turn it on. The car displays an error and the parking brake light flashes. Can I return the handbrake to its original position and clear the fault or have I broken the handbrake and have to buy a new part? The foot brake works normally. Tnx
Hi there, i would do this, 1st disconnected the battery, number 2 you need do this to both back wheels, take the electronic bit away like i did on the video, next u need push the piston all in. Put back the motor. Both wheels do the same. Then pump the brake pedal few times. When brake pedal feel hard connect the battery. Turn on the car and try apply the brake. It should work 😃
@@axores20 Hi. Here's what happened. I tried the procedure from the video. And I noticed when I push the brake piston the handbrake shaft doesn’t rotate. So obviously that part is broken. But then I had to go to work in another state and I didn't have time to repair. Tomorrow I'm going to the auto parts store and I'll buy a new piston or if it's not a big difference in price a complete new brake caliper. I think I will have less problems if I buy a set of brake calipers because I have never changed the brake piston and I don’t know how complicated it is to change all those seals. Sorry for the longer answer. And once again, you helped me a lot, thank you.
Completed front brake change, wasn’t 100% sure how to disconnect electronic handbrake until now. Thank you!
Mr Nuno Fix...Thanking you for your time and ability in making this video.It has helped me out on more than one occasion and will be a constant reference for me and many.Greetings from Ireland.
Thanks mate follow your advice 👍
Brakes all fitted and working. Best part no more squeaking anymore
Thank you very much Nuno, changed my pads on my S-Max. It was very easy thanks to your description.
Hi what year is your s-max and was the procedure very similar to this video?
Thanks for an excellent demonstration and explanation! I was also not able to engage maintenance mode for the EPB. You made what would have been a challenge in an easy job!

Excellent thanks for sharing 😁
The brake deactivation process does not appear to work on my 2015 mk5 2litre diesel..☹️
My mondeo wouldn't go into service mode and this worked perfectly to wind the rear calipers in. Thanks 👍
Great instructions Nuno, really happy with the video.
Thank you very much for that tip! Excellent explanation, I can now do it without diagnose software, greetings from Germany
U welcome 😊
Thx for your help,I was about to change the discs when I got this problem with the electronic handbrake.
Helped me a lot ! Thx!!
U welcome 😊
You made my day❤️
....and save lot of Money!
I search so many weeks for an alternate,and now i find this in your Video!!!

Thanks alot thats going to make my job so much easier that was an excellent video to keep them coming 👍👍👍
Great video. Helped me a lot. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing very interesting video 📹 👍
Great instructional video!
19:24 What was that "another kind of grease" which you used for those two guide bolts?
Thank you :)
Silicone grease will be ideal but I always use multi purpose grease with no any problems

Hola! Qué tal ? Cómo lo hiciste al final ? Yo también quiero hacerlo y no sé cómo ponerlo en modo mantenimiento! Gracias!
Hello! Do you make the same prosedure with the electric brake on an automatic gearbox?
Hi. Exactly the same. Mercedes and mondeos vw audi etc. All the same procedure with auto box ☺️
What about replacing the whole calliper? If you take it off and unplug its electronic, will this cause any sort of issue on the dashboard? Thanks
If ignition is off u wont have problems. This is just power to a motor no any sensor on it. It should be fine 😉
Very nice video. 👍👍👍
What is the procedure to put EPB into maintenance mode on the mondeo with an auto box and keyless ignition
It is. I believe someone did comment below how to do it ☺️
Hi , great video,what is the tool to rewind caliper ? Can you substitute it for anything else ? Thanks again for video. Hope to try this weekend
Great video

Hi,Nuno! What kind of grease You've been used to apply on some parts of break calliper,pads,piston,bolts? Thanks.
Copper grease on everything except the bolts which you use silicone grease for. Hope that helps.
Hi! very good video !! What key is to open the brake caliper pins! Thank you so much!
Glad you liked. I believe i did show on the video. I know is torx but dont remember the size. 😞
@@axores20 Thank you so much!! for the speed in responding !!!!

Very good tutorial but I would have liked to see an axle stand in use.👍👍
Me too. But i do trust that jack. If i will go under the car then i use an axle stand 😊 thanks for watching 😊
Thanks for sharing
Bravo è semplice fare i freni posteriori...grazie
Forscan can also put cars into EPB Service mode. At least I know it can do Focus and S-Max.
Yes but not all people have a forscan software at hands ☺️
10000 thanks !
💪👍
Thanks
U welcome 🙂
How much would this job cost as a homer ? thanks 😊
Only pads cost and cooper grease. Some shops have great discounts on parts 😊
Хочешь сделать хорошо, сделай сам)
So what if the car has no electrics connected… or engine? Do I just use the grinder? Lol
That depends if you want send it to scrap yard 🤣🤣🤣
That is call hacking..
This might interfere with the calibrations..
Not hacking. Clever way. I been doing this from 2010. No problems i ever have. If u do properly u wont have issues.
