That’s about the time they go. Good luck

Thanks for putting this video together. It helped me understand how to retract the caliper pistons on our 2020 telluride!

kudos on putting this video together, extremely helpful and wouldn't have tried doing the brakes myself without seeing it first, thanks again....

THANK YOU SO MUCH for showing this!!!!!

Good job on showing how to doing the brakes the only thing that I would recommend is first pull out the calipers slide pins clean off the old grease and re lube they with the proper high temperature grease make sure that they slide in and out freely and that the rubber boots are not torn or damaged and second get a brake fluid exchange or replacement every 3 to 4 years or around 75,000 miles to get the worn out and heat soaked brake fluid out of your systems that in the calipers area and the ABS motor areas this is a good maintaince tip if you plan on keeping your vehicle or if you live in a severe climate area or because of the temperature changes hot to cold, again good job on your video presentation

Thanks for the great video. I just finished doing just the rear pads. EPB is much easier if you jump 12v to it (after confirming polarity) and run it in while using a caliper compressor (no need to remove it from the caliper bracket). I had a cheap caliper compressor and since the caliper doesn't need to be rotated (like VW & Audi) you could even use a "C" clamp as long as you don't press against the EPB cover. Quickest brake job ever. Of course I did all the other usual brake job stuff.

I agree it’s a lot easier with 12V and I will use that method next time I do mine again. but you’d be surprised at the level of competence with most people lol I did not want to be blamed for someone over extending their piston after hooking it up to a 12V. So I figured manually backing the motor back slowly would be easiest and safest to follow.

@@sholomnb yes, you just take your 12V positive and negative and hook it up to the 2 prongs on the EPB motor. Then you check which way the piston is going, once you confirm it’s indeed going back then you just keep at it until it’s compressed.

Thank you for uploading this! This is really helpful. Cheers from Norway :)

Worked perfectly on my sportage, Saved me 400 dollar.

Thanks for posting this! If you have a 12v source you can use alligator clips attached to the spade connecors on the epb motor plug. Make sure the polarity is correct, if the caliper piston comes out when you connect your 12v source, just reverse the polarity and you can spin out the epb. Then you can press the caliper piston inwards like normal. Cheaper than a $6000 scan tool. Cars are getting way too over complicated.

Thanks bud, good video

Good morning, I have watched over 1000 KZread videos on car repair and I have never saw a video as good as yours!!!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ in that video on the stainless clips on how you put a screwdriver in between the rotor and the clip the push that tab back was excellent, how many times I pull the wheel off because that dang clip was rubbing, great job great video. God bless you. How do I find more videos that you make? 9:23

Thank you

Any body have issues with the epb light coming on after doing this?

At 4:26 when I say “I got mine unplugged” I am referring to the EPB motor wiring harness not the brake line. DO NOT DISCONNECT THE BRAKE LINE

We’ll explain only question is How much did you Torque the bolts? this is the only video I can find on this thank!

@ad8788

2 жыл бұрын

Thank you. Yes I couldn’t find any torque specs I used a range I typically use on other cars. I think 52 lb ft for the caliper mount bolts and 22 for the caliper guides.

I searched ‘Rotor’ replacement and NOT ONE SYLLABLE about the Rotors after EPB & HEX YADA YADA.

9 volt battery... There are other video showing that you can use a 9-volt battery or a 12 volt drill battery to get the electric parking brake motor to retract itself now. But this video is good to watch to see how everything else is done. Also if you're not comfortable putting a battery to the parking brake then this video is good for manual retraction.

Which way do you spin the hex bolt inside the caliper to retract the piston (CW or CCW)?

@@quintinshelby it shouldn’t be too hard to push it back with some sort of wedge or something that can fit in there and give you a little leverage. the caliper tool was overkill for mine. If it’s firm and won’t go back then you have to spin the hex in the opposite direction to retract the electric gear

do you need to spin the piston back or can you just compress it with a clamp?

@ad8788

The piston is the push type. No spin.

Interesting I always thought it was sketchy to remove the epb motor thing lol but I’m sure there are ways to put it in service mode for real where the epb disengages itself so you can just compress the piston normally. I just don’t know how to on a Kia since I work at Toyota

@ad8788

Жыл бұрын

Yes most cars with EPB have service mode to disengage it but Kia/Hyundai does not. It has to be manually disengaged. The EPB is just an electric motor there is absolutely no issue with taking it off after unplugging it.

Also when you spin the hex in either direction you have to go little by little and push the piston back manually as you go. You don’t want to keep spinning the hex in the wrong direction where it’ll overextend the piston. So you go little by little to figure out which direction retracts the electric gear and you know that by spinning a bit then pushing the piston and making sure it’s letting you push it back.
