- In this video I will be showing you how I change the front and rear brake pads on the 2020 Chevy Custom Trail Boss Z71 Unfortunately for the rear brakes I tried putting it in brake service mode but it didn’t work so I had to do it manually or you can say the hard way. Soon after I was finished changing the brake pads I figured out how to put it in brake service mode so if you want to see that video first click here ➡️ • How To Turn On Brake S... I also ended up removing the electric parking brake motor to finish compressing the piston all the way in and for better clearance putting back the new pads, I also show you how to remove and reinstall the brake pad wear sensor.

🛑🚨 IF YOU ALREADY REMOVED YOUR CALIPER & HAVE NOT PUT IT IN BRAKE SERVICE MODE READ THIS!!!!
Ok I did something similar to this before I could figure out how to put it in brake services mode i made the same mistake and tried doing this after I had already disassembled the rear brakes. I almost blew out the piston luckily I had someone watching and i stop before it could blow, but they did over extend. After all that I got all the lights come on probably because I had just over extended my piston (border line blew it out) I then tuck of the electric parking brake motor and winded the piston back , cleared all codes and they never came back.
Know everyone reading this
YOU CANNOT PUT IT IN BRAKE SERVICE MODE IF YOU ALREADY TUCK EVERYTHING APART…..TO LATE KNOW YOU HAVE TO DO IT MANUALLY OR YOU WILL BLOW THE PISTON
that’s why I said in my other video if you already started taking everything apart you can’t do this anymore you will have to do it manually removing the electric parking brake motor and wind it back in by hand.
This is why I love RUclips! No telling how many hours of cussing and frustration you saved me! Thanks bro!🎉
Your welcome happy to help man 👍🏻😁
Thanks for the video man. Only thing I did different was remove the fluid cap in the beginning. When i was done replacing pads I the pulled negative cable and pumped the brakes until firm. Hooked negative back up and started truck, it kept itself in brake sevice mode, put it back to normal. No codes and eveything works good! I did somehow managed not to have to remove the electric motor somehow. Got lucky.
wow that's awesome bro good work , and yes you definitely got good luck lol
Not luck , this is the correct way to do it battery must be disconnected and brakes pumped
I replaced the rear rotors and pads last weekend. Found a set of pads that came with the pad wear sensor, but also found the sensor for $14 at autozone. I put the truck in brake service mode and also replaced the rear sensor along with the pads and rotors. When I was done I started the truck, took it out of brake service mode, and then the computer asked me if the pads were replaced....I selected "yes" and it reset the rear pads to %100 and left the front pads at %33.
Also, I removed the electronic parking brake from the caliper and fully compressed the caliper piston with an oil filter wrench/clamp thing I had on hand....you could also just use a C-clamp. The tool is only really necessary if you dont removed the electronic parking brake.
Very helpful thanks brother 👍🏻
If you reused the same wear sensor, the percent won't show correctly anyway. The sensor gets worn down and that is how it can tell how much life is left. Thanks for this video. I though the rear brakes and rotors would be an hour and a half. Now I realize I should leave this project for a weekend where I have a few hours if anything pops up!
Great information thanks man and no problem have fun wrenching 👍🏻
Thank you! The demo and installation process were easy to follow, and the work was very clean. Great job with the video. Best, James
Great video! Thanks for sharing! On another note, it's crazy that the dealer wanted to charge $171 to reset the brake pad life, insane.
Thank you 👍🏻 and yea that’s pretty Insane
Minute and 10 seconds in and I’m already sure that I’m gonna get the answers I need after only watching three or four videos for up to six minutes
That’s great Chris I try to cut straight to the chase and answer my own questions and questions I think others would have. Let me know if you need any clarification that wasn’t in the video and I’ll get right back to you.
Thanks for the video, replacing pads and rotors today at 108k for the first time
Your welcome and awesome let me know how it goes, If you have any questions I’m here 👍🏻
Thank you for doing this video and working through all the issues. I was scratching my head how I could does this safely and the right way. Great job! will do mine soon. thx
No problem man happy it helped you out 👍🏻
So finally got around to doing the brakes. For whatever reason I was unable to place the truck in service mode-followed your instructions and tried multiple times but the 2021 Tahoe wouldnt service mode from the EBP. Did the fronts anyways and of course the vehicle threw all kinds of codes and ESC and brake warnings. After a few hours all that went away and just need the engine light codes cleared. Thinking of attempting the rears tonight. A shame really the brakes are super easy to change especially for disc brakes. Thank you again for sharing and hope i can pass along my issues as well@@J.A.P.S best regards.
Excellent video. Always like to see what Im getting into before I start the job
Thanks, same here I know I’m not the only one that likes to take care of things themselves.
Thanks man! Super helpful. Gonna replace mine this week hopefully. Having a noise from my passenger rear pads that I’m hearing while constant driving and I have to assume it’s the pad or clip just rubbing
awesome let us know how it goes
I did this with service mode and all and I had several dtc codes lol. Luckily I cleared them and everything started working fine again, no DTCs after 600 miles
Perfect 👍🏻
How did you cleared them? I have all the lights on my dashboard on lol looks like Christmas isn’t over.
@@loerillkcpvillarreal3457what did you do? I have the same problem rn
@@kvng_leo1159fr me too
@@kvng_leo1159you don’t happen to have a white Silverado do you.
Good video. Very helpful. You made it look easy. 🙏🏽
It’s a stupid feature that the manufacturer installed in order for the dealerships to make money
I have the 2021 Sierra 2.7
And there was a rubbing noise coming from the front passenger wheel
Their diagnosis was that the break sensor is rubbing and that I need new brakes however, I had them do the brake job back in Feb 2023(towards the last week of the month) front & rear brake pads and rotors along with buying new tires (from my tire spot) with a grand total of $3k
From Feb to sept there’s no way my truck would need new brakes knowing I rarely use the brakes and use the engine to slow the vehicle down as I drive a lot
So your video confirmed that these trucks come with faulty brake equipment just to make us consumers believe we need new brakes when all it is to put new the brake equipment not the pads
well said
I’ve been wondering what that noise is too as my rear brake pads are not very worn. I bet when I take it apart I will find that the clip has been broken as well! Thanks a lot!
Haha looks like we’re all having the same problem. Yea I would just replace the clips then see if that stops the noise keep me posted if it works 👍🏻
No problem happy to help. Yea you might just need new hardware clips let me know how it goes 👍🏻
Successful change. The inner pads were super worn down which was surprising. Only 37k miles on the truck but I did buy it used at 20k. Either way, changed successfully. Appreciate the video!
Hell yeah brother that’s great man and yea mine has 55k and they were still in great condition sadly I replaced them but no problem happy to help 👍🏻
@@nathanbaverman5668front or rear?
Hi, thanks for sharing this video. Unfortunately I have done the same. And now I have the parking assist disabled.
Oh wow is it fixed now ?
@J.A.P.S it runs fine but has something with brake pressure test needs to be completed.
@@J.A.P.S any idea how they resolved the issue ? (not having it in brake service mode)
Could you do spark plug change vid, that would be awesome.
Yea for sure but that will be at 100,000 miles
Did you put the truck in "Brake Change Mode" so the pistons are easier to press in? Your suppose to press and hold the brake pedal and parking brake button for 10 seconds or so. I just found that out and I thought is was pretty interesting
No i tried but it didn’t work, In this video you’ll see how I do it manually. After I changed the pads I figured out how to put it in “ Brake Service Mode “ click here to see that video ➡️ ruclips.net/video/xiS7KHmjVtY/видео.html
(It’s 15 Seconds)
I have a 2021 trail boss. Same truck I’m going to change my front pads and rotors tomorrow is this the same process? having to put it in service brake mode?
@@scottyhowie4902 only for the rear brakes
Changing those pads was a complete waste of money. You probably just needed to take them apart and clean them and put them back together.
@@bdtaylor1979 it’s a bit to late now Bobby 😂 but yes I totally agree
I changed my rear brakes about 3 months ago and it took about a week before the brake life reset itself. I'll be changing my fronts this weekend and I assume it will be the same.
Awesome thanks rob good to know.
Hello, my question is, you didn't need to do anything for it to reset and it reset itself
@@ancihuacuaromich9556 unfortunately for my case never reset it’s self till this day but iv read some comments that the truck will detect the new pads and ask you if you want to rest it. Let me know if that’s the case or wat happens with your truck 👍🏻
I was thinking the same thing. I might just replace the brake hardware.
Yes would do that first before you spend the money on the pads 👍🏻
Springing of clips is really not the issue. Not nearly enough spring force to retract pistons if you can do that by hand. Brake Service Mode is the only way.
Did you disconnect the battery or anything like that?
What is the torque specifications for the luts nuts on the tire 🛞? And thanks for teaching 🙏 great video
140 ft.lb your welcome no problem. Happy to help
@@J.A.P.S thank you so much 🙏
Thank you, your video was very helpful. I replaced my rotors and breaks after 70,000 miles, but I have a squeaky noise problem. I already try different things, the dealer said it’s normal, but I don’t think so. Have you had any squeaky noise on your rear breaker?
Check that your hardware isn’t touching the rotor.
It was the front passenger sensor that was making the noise. Thank you for the feedback you video help me a lot
No problem man happy to help and that your ride is 100%
np thanks for watching
For the rear brakes, I was under the impression you had to put the car on brake maintenance mode so when you push back the pistons it allows it without forcing it ?
7:27 Love you man! Thank you
No worries happy to help 👍🏻
Did you have any faults after Changing pads and starting it ?
Since I wasn’t able to put it in Brake Service Mode the check engine light came on and a brake service light. Probably threw something off, I just cleared the codes with the blue driver, or you can disconnect the battery for an hour or so and should clear the codes. It’s bin a few weeks now and the codes haven’t came back, everything is working perfect.
The sticky side is to put the shim on from the old pads.
Useful information
How do you fix the
“Service parking brake”
Warning light on this truck ?
Electronic Parking brake isn’t working.
I’m changing the rotors and pads this weekend …maybe I’ll see something after I tear it apart …
So I'm slightly confused on a couple different resources.. Do the rear calipers require twisting to retract or are they just pushed in?
To clarify, if in brake service mode you should be able to just compress without spinning... Correct?
@@bcargill1975 I’m pretty sure you have to spin it in because of the parking brake motor
i taught that with the blue driver you could reset the brake pad life ?
Unfortunately not
good video , having problem with mine , nothing to lubricate in front ??has my safe mode come on and dealer said i need new brake but the pads are still new ?thank
Probably just remove and clean all the brake dust and use Copper Anti-Seize on the hardware should be fine.
I haven’t taken anything apart yet but my truck wont go into break service mode. I get to where the light flashes and then i have to press the button one more time and then it just releases the break and the flashing light goes away. Any help?
Try repeatedly. Had to try mine 4 times before it finally went it to service mode
Would just remove parking brake motor and do it manually let us know wat you ended up
Doing ?
2021 suburban do you have to pu t it in brakes services mode if you are only replacing the front brakes
No only for rear
Excellent video man! Doing my brakes this weekend! Now I know what to look for. As for some of the Karens in the comments, don't worry about them, we all know they're not working on their own rides! 😂
Thanks brother let me know how it goes 👍🏻
Lol 😅
The rear brakes are not twist you push them in and keep those tabs straight
Unfortunately not the case with the Electric Parking Brake Motor
Correct
I just put it in brake service mode. I didn't take the electric parking brakes off like that. I just compressed it and that's it
Beautiful that’s how it’s supposed to work 👍🏻 great job man
Great video thanks!
Welcome glad it helped.
Great job, thanks.
Your welcome
I wasnt able to put mine on service mode neither but still managed to change my brakes and rotors but now MAGICALLY its on service mode and cant get it back to normal so now my parking brake.doesnt work because its in service mode any ideas or suggestions? Will the blue driver work for that to take it off service mode or ?
I would imagine so if not I would just repeat all the steps to put it in Service mode again.
Let us know wat you ended up doing pleas ?
What tires are those? Beautiful truck!
Thanks bro there Michelin tires the Defender series to be exact rim is a 22”
Awesome Dude!!!
Best video thanks
your welcome thanks for watching!
Yeah i have 52k on my 2020 LT TrailBoss and im going tomchange the brakes and rotors on mine, but i havenr been able to find the Brakes and rotors for my truck hopefully these numbers help me out thanks
Awesome your welcome, I got them straight from the dealer so you should have no problem finding them, let me know how it goes 👍🏻
@J.A.P.S I will, but the only chevy dealership I have close by me is a Ripoff Unit.... They tried telling me on my 2004 2500hd they would have to drop the rear axle to do a Rear ebrake cable and then Axle seals, soooo yeah I might try somewhere else lol
😂yea most definitely
My boy very helpfull info
Glad to help
The noise is was making was it like a hissing noise like something scraping? Having the same issue with my 2021.
Yes Exactly
I trying to do mine and only on the passenger front right now, the bottom piston wont push in, like when you say squeeze it in, started out easy but it one wont budge, there anything I need to do before trying to take caliber off?, do i need to disconnect sensor or something, dont understand why it wont push in
wat did you end up doing to solve this ?
Thanks for the vidoe
Your Welcome
Do you need to put it in break service mode if only doing the front brakes
no
What percentage paid did the truck say was left on yours? I did this last weekend because it said fronts were down to 17%. Removed them and compared to brand new ones. Hardly any difference. Maybe 1/8” at most, probably closer to a 1/16”. So put a new sensor on and put old pads back in. Still says 17% left.
yea mine were also in very good shape when I removed them wat a piece of junk that sensor is. I just disabled them and when I hear them screeching I will know when its time to replace then this new technology is unnecessary.
@@J.A.P.S luckily for us we are handy enough to do our own brakes. I just wonder how many thousands of customers had dealerships unnecessarily change their brakes because the dash told them to, and be robbed of a few hundred dollars.
@@J.A.P.Show did you disable the sensor?
I think the percentage it shows is what you’ve used so far, not was is left .
Nice job
thank you
So what do I do if I have all my lights lit up cuz I put my new pads but I didn’t do the service thing
How often did you get your brakes cleaned and dusted before you did a full change?
Never
@@J.A.P.S oh wow
@@J.A.P.S so I’m assuming it’s something you don’t recommend? And how many miles did you have on the truck before the change?
Thanks man love you now hahha
No problem man happy it helped you 😅
Did you loosen the cap on the brake fluid reservoir to press the calipers back
No i tuck the caliper off and removed the electric parking brake motor then turned the screw in the back so it would retract back in.
If you were just replacing the front brakes, then you wouldn’t remove the brake reservoir cap correct?…..I’m going to be doing my vehicle brakes this weekend just wanna make sure
@@Zebraunit22 correct no need
Do you have to replace sensors. My new pads from American trucks didn’t come with sensors
To be honest I don’t think so my kit only came with the front one and i reused the rear sensor, you should be ok if you reuse the original ones.
Thanks bro
@@robertmartinez8065 no problem 👍🏻
Another question do I have to put it in brake service mode for the front or just rear?
@@robertmartinez8065 just for the rear
What the tool you used to manually compress rear caliper unable to find it
Link is down in the description for the Disc Brake Caliper Wind Back Tool. Or if you just want to remove the electric parking brake motor and wind it back that way you will need a Hex Socket.
What hex socket number did you use?
@@angmen196 HW5 5mm Hex Bit
Did mine and i have a slight vibration from 40-25mph when light braking.. very odd. Everything is workinf correctly.
Did you torque everyone down to speck? that should not be happening
Also did you check your rotors for any deformation or groves because that sounds like bad rotors.
@@J.A.P.S yes to both.
And we’re do you feel it most front or rear ?
@J.A.P.S it's in the front. Maybe a faulty pad or rotor. Its hard to mess these brakes up they're pretty easy to do lol.
I don't no what tool was used to retract the rest of the piston in what is tool used on the rachet to get it all the way in can someone let me know
What size socket for back pads?
It’s in the video
I’m finding my pads are fitting in too tight and they are not getting the spring action like you are getting (currently doing install with new pads and spring clips…)
Spring clips sometimes are defective so that might be your case or you can make sure your presenting the pads correctly on the hardware.
@@J.A.P.S they are brand new clips.. but the pads dont slide into the clips as well as yours, they are tight on the ends which doesnt create a spring action for me currently on my new hardware. If I don't get that loose play on both ends of the pad then it won't move freely... Trying to decide what to do
@@flash67what did you end up doing? I just changed mine and also did not have the spring like action on both sides.. only 1 side. I’m assuming this is the reason why one pad was worn down to the bone while the other looked brand new!
@@RJJackson09 exactly right.. its a defect.. the springs on the front are proper and work so well... What I ended up doing was just nothing... I lubed them as much as I could but I'm still not satisfied... I"m not sure if I should just suck it up and realize I'm going to have to service the back brakes a lot more then the fronts because of these 10 cent metal clips essentially on the calipers being absolute garbage.. I've ordered a bunch more clips to see if any of them look any better or not.
I think what I"m going to do next is take em back off and maybe grind the tips of the pads a bit where they sit into the clips and see if i can get some more wiggle room out of it... then of course lube it all back up and pray to god
@@flash67 I just did my front driver side brakes and it really didn’t have much spring like action at all. Everything was SUPER tight, I barely was able to fit them in there. Had to move the pistons back and forth and magically got them in
Hi Mate, Did you repair truck every day?
Hey man unfortunately I just work on personal vehicles.
@@J.A.P.S OK, No worries. My name is Young from Kingbolen. We have a Launch GM scanner coming, In the past, We send our tool to creators to test. Let me know how to connect if you are open to testing automotive tools.

Did my front brakes pads and now I can’t drive my truck, check engine light came on, traction light, ABS, ESC, taking it in to dealer so they could tax the crap out of me
Same thing happened to me rn😂
What was the verdict for this? I got a p25a2 code for the front and the 43mph cap. Everything went smooth and it registered the rear.
It could be that the brake wear sensor was not put back fully onto the pad.
Yup I have a pined comment explaining this same thing happened to me I cleared all codes
Ok I did something similar to this before I could figure out how to put it in brake services mode i made the same mistake and tried doing this after I had already disassembled the rear brakes.

Next time use brake cleaner so you don’t breathe in that dust
Good idea 👍🏻
Congrats! Consider yourself an official Karen! Get off here with your idiot comments. You're simlply not needed.
@gunguyforlife630 bro it carcinogens . Not good to breathe that shit in
I am getting the 43mph limit error serve ESC and bla bla bla
Already tried to clean errors and nothing seems to work what to do?
Disconnect battery then try resting the codes again
tried this still doing the same ?
@@252pollo2 it was fixed by a mechanic. He mentioned it was not the break module but the break pump that got stuck with air. He said he forced with vacuum and then it worked. Dealer was going to charge 400 for just find out the issue and probably another couple thousands to actually fix it. Luckily this mechanic found out the issue and charged me 500 total.
update: had to have someone with a big computer scanner connect up to the truck and clear codes once he cleared codes and allowed the system to bleed we did a gravity bleed (since one of the pistons popped out) and truck was back to normal haven’t had any issues he charged me $100
my advice would be to find someone you know that has a big scanner and it will fix your problem
Thats a dumb grey clip
Lol
Just changed front pads, can’t get code to clear for Brake System Failure, Service ESC, Service Trailer Brake, and Service Brake Assist-any ideas? I have a Foxwell NT530 Scanner tool but can’t get codes to clear😢
Disconnect the battery for 15 minutes then see if it clears if not then try clearing codes again
Same thing happened to me don’t worry wat did the scanner say when you tried to clear codes ?
