    I just did the same thing on a 2017 Ford Escape , it works exactly the same way, I called my mechanic , he said I had to hook scanner tool, but was able to successfully change rear brakes by putting it in to Blake maintenance mode, and successfully take it out of brake service mode, the rear brake pistons were able to retract and brake service was successful, thank you so much for the you tube info.

    what happens if you do spin the caliper piston to compress it? i did so without thinking about it and put a new caliper on, i had the electric parking brake actuator off of the caliper when i did this, now i think the new caliper is stuck closed i can smell it on my new pads, do you think i broke my caliper by spinning it?

    Thank you SO Much for making this video!! I did not know this and thought last time I changed my brakes I broke the electric motor. Was getting a parking brake malfunction message on the dash. but then I just did this and it calibrated the brakes and all is well. Parking brake functions like normal again. Thanks again!

      It won’t let you retract the caliper if you don’t 😂

  • @karrpilot7092
    @karrpilot7092 Před rokem

    I never bothered with that. I put the vehicle in neutral, and shut off the key. Then i raise the vehicle up with the emergency brake released. Unplug the electrical connector to the caliper. Open the brake bleeder. Take off the caliper, and push back / retract the caliper piston. Replace the pads and rotors. reassemble everything. Bleed the brakes. Last step, plug the caliper back in. Done. I have been doing this for years.

    When I went to reactivate it didn't.. I can hear the motors trying to realign but now I only hear clicking. car won't even start. It is like there was some electrical error. Disconnected the battery but still didn't help
