What are the steps for replacing the BMW handbrake motor?
1 Answers
Release the brake button, remove the tire, and take off the brake caliper. Remove the rear brake caliper, use an E40 spline tool to detach the electronic brake motor, then turn the electronic brake shaft on the caliper clockwise with an E30 spline. Then use a special brake tool to push the brake caliper back (or gently pry it back with a screwdriver). Install the new brake pads, mount the electronic brake motor onto the caliper, and proceed with normal installation. After installation, press the electronic brake button several times.
