- This service applies to all Kia and Hyundai vehicles and the electronic method applies for any, and all makes and models with an electronic parking brake. As for the mechanical way, I cannot confirm. I hope this helps.

This worked great on my son-in-laws 2021 hyundai tucson Worked exactly the way you described. 12v battery 15 seconds when started to turn stopped it push the piston in and that's it. Battery is the way to go. Got all the brakes done in 1hr 50 minutes. Great video. You the man. PS : Went in like butter! Lol
Great video, very thorough. I already did mine, using the battery method, but did not know the (so simple) method to reset the parking brake. Thanks!
Did you use a 12v car battery?
We did the mechanical method with an Allen key turning clockwise until it stopped. The piston needed a little persuasion to go back in, but when it started moving in it did very slowly and gently. Thanks for the video.
A 9 volt battery with alligator clips works as well. Thanks or the video.
Great video, thank you for posting this. Not much content around this. TY!
- how was the brake pedal pressure? Spongy? And did you have to bleed the brakes?
If you apply the ebrake 2-3 times and pump the brakes they shouldn’t be spongy. Keep in mind it sometimes takes a bit of driving for the brake pedal the get to it’s fully stiff position. No bleeding necessary!!!
Show how to unplug the sensor!!!
Apologies, although if you are doing your own brakes I would hope you know how to unplug a sensor haha
So all you need is a 12 volt car battery to actuate E brake to retract? I saw one use a charger and use the 2amp instead. I guess he didn't want to use 12v . Also i saw another video using a 9v battery with volt meter connectors. Is it safe to use a car battery? Thinking it use 12 v anyway. Just want to make sure of the volts beacause these other videos are making me think twice on the volts. Whst are your thoughts.i plan to change brakes on a 2020 hyundai tucson with E brake next week
I would use a car battery and keep the voltage the same. Lower volts would just retract slower but better safe than sorry those electronic components aren’t cheap
Can you reset the caliber piston by turning the piston itself back in, instead of removing the EPB module?
You have to bring the electronic portion back first before pushing the piston back. If you don’t you will ruin a very expensive caliper
Tried to do my brakes before i knew this was even a thing. I compressed the piston without backing off the motor first, now i have weak rear brake authority.
How likely is it that my calipers are fucked even if the EPB still functions normally?
Am i still able to back off the motor and then compress the piston and put everything back on to regain rear brake authority?
Also, its a 2021 kia k5 ex, FWD.
Definitely try to do it the proper way and see if it helps. But you might have just ruined the caliper and will need a new one
@@TOPAUTOSC ended up doing it the right way and it worked. Thanks for the video man
