So I’m a Honda Tech and I find this video very interesting because Honda has designed these vehicles where when you finally do need to service your brakes an important thing that must be done is the vehicle has to be connected to a Honda scan tool either an MVC-I or DST-I and you must put the vehicle in brake pad maintenance mode. If you don’t you will damage the E-Brake. And not everyone damages the E-Brake but the reason why some people have those lights on after servicing they’re vehicle is because you can take the e-brake off but once the the car off your e-brake automatically engages again because of the vehicle settings that the consumer has it set to once you park the car and turn it off. But that’s why we must put it on brake pad maintenance mode with our Honda scan tools because it bypasses the settings so the vehicle E-Brake doesn’t engage. Once you take that caliper off there’s that chance that your E-Brake actually gets messed up and now a simple $229 brake job because we resurface the rotors not replace them, will now turn to a $1000 job.
Wayne Hebb I’m sure that there is a way to do it but once you push the piston back in on the rear calipers you will have a lot of codes come on the dash
I think bleeding it might prevent some of the issues some people have had, i dunno. It seems like some people have luck with this method and others have caused huge problems.
Excellent videos, and very well done, and helpful.
Thanks for taking the time to do this.
Taking the time to show you how to ruin your electronic e brake 🤦🏻♂️

I have a friend that works at Honda also and he tells me the same thing.
What about disconnecting the motor brake afters you release it?
So theres no way to do rear brakes outside of a dealership?

I work for Honda also and you need to put it in maintenance mode lol
When your pushing the piston back is it supposed to turn While going back In??
Yes
Did u remove ur brake fluid cap?
How did u keep the parking brake disengage? Before rewinding the rear piston?
I just made sure the parking brake was off before I started the job.
Are you not suppose to bleed the fluid when you push the piston in? I thought is wasn’t good to push fluid back through the lines.

You must clean off the hub mating surface 100% so it has no rust or debris or you will have runout and brake pulsation. You want it silver shiny.

recommend using proper torque for the caliper brakets
Thanks for the comment, but I have been doing brakes for over 15 years and have never torqued the caliper brackets. Never had one come loose.
@@fixitfrank412 im not knocking the video. its great however Caliper bolts like lug nuts have a torque spec for a reason.
Not following torque specs is a very bad practice.
55 ft pounds isn't it?
@@MM-ig1ivbracket is 80LBS and caliber pins is 25LBS.
Poor photos of the job hard work to follow
