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.

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 💯

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?

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?

You gotta clear the code with a diagnostic tool

What about 2018 civic Manuel

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

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.

Is anyone able to provide a link to the Amazon item that I can order for replacement. I am in Canada.

Balls of steel my friend

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 👍

Thank you so much for your video it help me a lot.👍
