For everyone who was in my situation, the back piston not pushing in. Do the service mode, unplug the battery, push the caliper in (should be with ease) put everything back together. Good video, dude just doesn't show him pushing the caliper piston in
What if you need to replace the rotors? What do you do when you're all done with pads and rotors and after taking the computer back out of service mode, you get code C10d0-53 but everything works as it should, but you can't clear the code because of the SGW module???
If you live in the rust belt, you'll want to remove the caliper brackets and grind off the rust that's under the shims. The one I'm working on was metal to metal on one side and about half worn on the other side due to pads sticking because of the rust build up.
How would I manually put the e brake in service mode ?? Mines stuck with the e brake on and there’s only one solution to fix it and it’s not working after 2 times.
No. Brake fluid level is supposed to be used to tell you how low your pads are getting. But for some reason, techs & DIYers top it off which then spills out when you compress the piston
This video does not show ALL the proper steps. This video only shows how to replace the pads like a shade tree job. The pins with rubber boot protectors in the caliper bracket must be removed and cleaned and re lubed with brake lubricant to have proper and even brake pad wear. Furthermore every time i replace pads i clean and replace the metal bake pad shims. Aswell as machine or turn the rotors on a lathe to get maximum life span from the brakes and pads. Also good idea to flush or bleed out the fluid every few years to keep the brakes working and clean fluid in the system. Ive been wrenching since 2004 full time. Good video just needs alot more info and steps otherwise these brakes will surely fail sooner than later. ✔️
I noticed that they re-used the caliper bolt. These cannot be re-used due to the fact that those bolts are single use "torque to yield bolts". Before starting the brake job you need to purchase brand new caliper bolts which are "torque to yield" type from your local dealer or another certified source.

reinforced frame area? How come my jeep manual doesn't state this! I used to jack up from those spots anyway
What about trims like Longtitude which doesn’t have a screen menu for brake service?
Ya ln Apps screen
when we did the front we didnt remove the battery cables

Hope you had luck
So you don't have to manually turn the rear brake piston in?
No. Just follow this video.
Yes you do it allows you to ow
NO. These can be pushed back with YOUR BARE FINGERS, if it's actually IN SERVICE MODE.
Is it a must to drain the brake fluid?
No. Brake fluid level is supposed to be used to tell you how low your pads are getting. But for some reason, techs & DIYers top it off which then spills out when you compress the piston
Only if it's NOT Clear and CLEAN

Piston, piston, piston....?

this video ignores the fact that you still must push the piston back into the caliper before you can install it
That’s what the electronic break reset does for the rear caliper.
@@Rynotastic nope i have to depress i still
Common sense
Once in SERVICE MODE you can push the pistons back with your bare hands....no tool needed. (If it's not junk or damaged)
Also the video ignores that some models, if not all that are listed… the battery is located under the front passenger seat and NOT under the hood
