The best video that shows and explains an ebrake adjustment on utube! Thank you!

Great video! My only concern would be spraying brake fluid everywhere you risk removing all of the required grease, typically 6-places on the back plate, upper pivot where shoes come together and so on...

fully intuitive, now I can work on my own car by myself, no mechanics needed anymore for that part :) Thanks

Thanks for the great tip! When I started working on my family's cars, they were adjusted by tightening a cable, usually under about the middle of the car. Yes, I am so old that I remember when dirt was invented.

I had a shop do brakes on my car. The emergency brake worked fine until after they worked on it... Now I'm taking it to a different mechanic and getting this done. And making the other shop give me my money back! Thanks for the detailed video! 👍

Mine is the exact opposite. I had a friend replace rear brake pads and the Parking brake shoe and if I’m on a slight hill and take my foot off the brake it won’t go up without pressing the gas. I feel like there some slight restriction and I’m having to press on the gas like 10-15% harder to maintain speed

Thank you Brother. I am having similar problem in my Camry. I will try fix it soon.

Great video. Awesome explanation and everything. I just have 1 question when adjusting how much resistance should the rotor have when you spin it. I understand you should still be able to spin by hand but how hard should it be when spinning? I’ve watch another video where that person explained to keep adjusting until you can no longer spin and than loosen it by a couple clicks and that way both sides would be equal. Do you think that’s a good way to tell how much to tighten it? Thanks!

Thank you so much for this video. It was very helpful.

Is it true turning the adjuster wheel upwards would expand the pads closer to the rotors for both the left and right sides? Therefore makes it tighter when pulling the hand brake handle.

Dear Ali - Great video As ususal ! I have a short question. I want to change my rear brake dust shield (2013 Lexus RX350). I believe I have to remove the bearing first. Do you know if I have to take the entire energy brake apart, or would I be able to just release the cable and reroute it through the new dust shield? Your reply is much appreciated!

Thanks for the great video! As an amateur car enthusiast, I've got two questions: 1. To open the brake shoes and get them closer to the rotor, is there a particular direction (clockwise or counter-clockwise) you need to turn the small gearwheel using the flat screwdriver? 2. Do you need to do this for both rear wheels? Or is one sufficient? Apologies in advance if my questions are too dumb. Appreciate a response. Thanks!!

What a great video!! my only question is , do i have to adjust only one wheel or both of them?

Good day I have an infinity i30 maxima but my hand brake is a foot pedal an it's really lose but I don't know if it carry brake shoes in the back I know it's four wheel disk do you have any info on this an how do I adjust it I recently bought the car used

Good video, but next time also mention, please, first, to put your brake caliper back on you have to push piston back with a special tool (or wedge or whatever suitable for you) and also you have to monitor brake level liquid (where your small brake liquid tank is located) whilst pushing the piston. Second, adjustment of your hand brake should be done kind of simultanuously on both rear wheels and you should check and test it rather by hand and NOT by counting of how much gears you clicked. Also I agree with the comment about cleaning compelte drum brake unit with brake cleaner liquid or spray as that will remove lubrication from the pairs of friction (which are gliding/sliding pins of the brake pads), however I don't mind of spray liquid cleaning the drum itself. Third, I wouldn't recommend people to check and test hand brake tightness by simply engaging the brake and setting automatic gear, because it is ridiculous mate!! Use any natuaral or artificial ramp elevation/inclination rather than your automatic transmission. Other than that, man... This video is the true good video of how hand brake should be adjusted (NOT on the hand brake lever, but on the wheels). Good on you!

Very good video, I will apply your advice, could you give me the name of the spray you use to clean the brakes, thanks.

Thanks for the tips. Just wondering how do you ensure both rear tyres has the same amount of ‘grab’ when you engage the handbrake? Is there an indicator or it’s just done by feel for each rear wheel? Thanks

Count the teeth When you turn the adjusters, and after you done, engage the brake and drive the car forward if its front wheels drive, if both wheels locked, you r good to go, but always count the teeths

Did I miss something or can you not just adjust the parking break by rotating with the screwdriver through that hole without removing the rotor? Why was there a need to take out the rotor in the first place?

My handbrake makes noise when driving, I think it's touching but I can still roll tires fine. Is this issue with something else?

Don’t forget the torque wrench on the Lugnuts.
