How to fix a malfunctioning electric parking brake manually?

Hi,

To replace the brake pads on this vehicle, the vehicle needs to be in brake pad replacement mode. I'm not sure how you got the caliper depressed without doing this.

Regardless, the best way to do it is with a scan tool that can communicate with the brake module. However, it can be done without one.

If you look below, it explains how to get it into brake pad replacement mode without a scan tool. You may want to follow through with this procedure and hopefully, it will properly reset.

Let me know if this helps or if you have questions.

Take care,

joe
