Below are the detailed replacement steps: 1. First, enter the brake system maintenance mode, turn on the power, and press the handbrake three times continuously while holding down the brake pedal. Continue until the handbrake mode on the dashboard flashes. 2. Prepare the new brake pads for replacement and remove the wheel where the brake is located. Be careful to avoid scratching the rim during the removal process. 3. Use a wrench with a socket to remove the bolts of the brake caliper, then take out the old brake pads. Check if the brake pads are excessively worn or have cracks. If so, proceed with the replacement. 4. Since the brake caliper may have accumulated sand or dirt, clean it thoroughly with a cloth and apply anti-squeal paste to prevent noise during braking. 5. Use a piston press pump to push the piston to its maximum position, then install the new brake pads onto the caliper. Once the new brake pads are properly installed, tighten the guide bolts to complete the installation.
