I couldn’t figure this out myself I literally just turned mine until I figured it out. Just turn it and watch the movements. One or two clicks makes it really obvious.
So the parking brake is an old fashioned drum brake setup except no hydraulic wheel cylinder, just the cable to activate. We used to adjust drum brakes by backing up and hitting the brake peddle as this would click the adjuster star one click. Not sure if you can do it by stopping with the parking brake when you backup?
Is the information there? Pretty much. However, the video is full of anxiety-producing micro management. Being rude to your trainee or assistant is uncalled for. If this is a matter of just having a bad day, make a public video on a better one. No excuse. I’d put the tools down, point to the car and say “have at it”! Show some respect. Treat others as you want to be treated.

To remove rear brake disc you use two bolts wich you screw in 2 holes specifically made for it.
Great Video!!
I'd love to see one where you replace the parking brake shoes!!
Great tips . Thanks much
Strange that Honda would use an entirely different system on the Accord. It uses the disk brake pad, not an additional brake system.
European/Japanese Accord (Acura TSX) uses drum brakes for the parking brake though
maybe accord needs better brakes/bigger disk, then there is no place for drum ;)
OK, so which way do you turn the star wheel to adjust the shoes contract or expand, clockwise or counter clockwise?

Anticlockwise for out. Clockwise for in.
Teeth up for tighten teeth down to loosen shoes
If you clean the adjuster it will self adjust. Just saying..
My 05 if I put my car in N and apply the parking brake it won’t do anything idk if it need to be adjusted or it’s broken

I doubt the parking brake is that advanced. A lot of cars in the early '60's didn't have self adjusting brakes.
THANKS GREAT HELP
I’m having a hard time find these parking brake shoes for a 2012 accord v6
What happens if you take off the rotors and your parking brake is on?
If the shoes are gripping the drum, you won't get it off.
Its almost impossible with parking brake on
slap him if he doesn't listen.
Stoped watching after you removed the 2 safety screws with a screwdriver, hacks
