Amazing video. Thank you so much! Saved me a good amount of money, plus it turned out to be a very high quality job. Much better than in any shop.

I agree 💯

This video is the best video I’ve seen in the entire time I’ve been watching KZread since 2004 I think. The video goes straight to the point, no life stories in between. Just the instructions from start to end. Thank you sir for this video!!!

I've seen other videos that show sloppy work and corner cutting...this is the way I want my brakes done. Thank YOU for sharing. Be well.

You’re a life saver and money saver, man. Thanks for taking the time to show us dummies how it’s done. We appreciate it. Can you do the front, as well.

Fantastic work. Just did my 19 accord EX-L and everything came out great.

Super video and well done. I tried doing this without the video ane got myself into a jam. The video got me out of "take it to the dealer mode" notificaion on my dash. I did a lot of turning with a spanner wrench before I watched this! Thank you David.

Wow! you sir should be a auto technician instructor. Your explanation is a pleasure to listen to.

Omg, this video is to perfection! Everything was spot on! Thank you for all your help and keep making videos

Absolutely spot on. Complete and concise instructions on how to do the job properly and effectively. For those that do not want to disassemble and reassemble the EPB motor, a cheap ($40) dongle, autel ap200, can be purchased that makes your phone a scan tool. You can effortlessly put your brakes into and out of maintenance mode.

Absolute lecture of a video. Amazingly explained. I followed the steps and changed my brakes. Thank you!

Great job, I always do it in accessory mode and make the job a lot quicker, also eliminates messing around with electronic part that can be sensitive.

Amazing video!!!!!! My back brakes changed. Only thing i would say is the counter clockwise is with you looking down at the caliper as if it were mounted. Other than that. This was a big help! 🎉

Thank You for this straight to the point and Excellent video !! 👍🏼

could you do a video on how to do a transmission fluid change on the 2,0 models if you have a 2.0 accord?

Very comprehensive video, good job! So much work for the rear brakes, makes you not want to use ACC 😂lol!

Please do a front brake video for the Accord. Very helpful videos!

Amazing video! Is the the same procedure for the 2018 honda clarity?

I followed every single step and the same products you recommended.

A super video and very helpful friend, I have a question. Does this procedure apply to a 2019 Honda clarity hybrid?

I’m going to do my rear pads and rotors soon. Every other KZread if watched for 2018 accord shows the caliper piston being turned in not pushed in with compressing tool.

Yep, not necessary. The caliper piston is retracted, there’s nothing to twist.

Excellent video instructions, thanks so much

So I did the accessories mode for the brake and yes I did got all my lights on after I turned my car on which was scary but after shutting down the car for 5 min all the lights went away. But for my next brake and rotor change I will do what you showed in this video sir. But I got a question- I didn't change my rotors since 2019 oct so do you think I should take the risk to get the rotor's screw on my own coz I'm sure it fully rusted af lol

Do I need to put my Honda Accord 2019 1.5 sport in accessory mode before manually messing with the parking break system

Thanks for the video. Very Helpful.

Agreed, fantastic video!

Thanks worked like a charm

Awesome. Thank you!

What are you referring to when you say complete winding of the mechanism

Good job !

First of all thanks for video, I tried to manually do this with the torx socket , just continue to spin never stopping , can you please help me

Yo after the work, I got many warnings and alarms asking me to go see dealer.. one of the warnings is “break hold problem. Go see your dealer” and many like this. How do I reset them and running?

This is an outstanding video

Great vid😊

Instead of releasing the brakes with the socket we connected jumper cable wires to the battery then with some cables we released the parking brake slowly until they were depressed all the way but I’m getting a brake warning on the dash any thoughts on what I can do? Otherwise we did the same thing in the video

I think you need to establish if the parking brake module is damaged or if you have a different issue. Take the working parking brake motor and place it on the opposite side. If it engages, it could be something else like a bad cable… good luck. Hope it helps.

I followed this exact procedure, including new hardware, lubricant, and surface cleaning. Loctite was also use were appropriate. I am experiencing a bad rattle coming from the rear brakes when driving. That rattle stops when I apply the brakes and the brakes seem to be functioning perfect. Any thoughts or experience with this?

@DavidStumph

Жыл бұрын

Both sides? Do the brake pads have any play in them? I’d take the caliper back off and see if the pads have an odd wear to them. Hard to tell without looking, but I’d take everything back apart and double confirm everything is tightened properly and has a snug fit. Have a second set of eyes take a look. Check all parts for damage or poor seating. Interested to hear what you find. High pitch or low pitch rattle? Any bangs?

@@DavidStumph So I found that the springs on the inside pad are not making contact with the caliper (both sides) When not under pressure, I can move the pad by hand. I have Powerstop Z17 pads. I reached out to Powerstop to see what they say but do you have any thoughts?

@DavidStumph

Жыл бұрын

Springs? There shouldn’t be any springs. Did you buy pads with retention clip hardware that is installed on the caliper mounting bracket where the brake pad ears sit? My brake pads didn’t use or come with clips. The pad ears should just slide into the caliper mounting bracket. The outside brake pad rests against the outside caliper ears and the inner pad makes contact with the caliper piston, which is what creates the pressure to produce friction. You might want to have another set of eyes look at this if it’s your first time, or wait for a response from the brake part manufacturer before you drive. Good luck and be safe.

No. Some would say there is possibility for pressure to be present when you compress the caliper piston. I’ve seen other people open the break line bleeder at the caliper when compressing the piston. I’ve never encountered the pressure or felt the need to bleed the line. With the process I’ve shown there was no pressure on the spindle for the caliper piston. You’re call.
