    You can see Volvo had lowered hardware metal quality in post 2010 cars. See how rusty are these after 2-3 years.
    2001-2009 model would not rust like this and had great bolts/nuts quality, easy to undo even after 10 years in salt.

    I just replaced my rear pads using the "connect 12V to the motor method".
    Here is the detail:
    Rear brake pads - Volvo with EPB (Electronic Parking Brake)
    Leave handbrake on
    Jack up and remove rear roadwheel
    Remove slider bolts (13mm & 15mm spanners)
    Remove EPB motor plug by puling upwards. This is the most difficult bit. You will need to slide a small screwdriver upwards into the latching mechanism at the rear of the connector. Keep the tip of the screwdriver in contact with the body of the connector (the bit which is part of the motor), whilst sliding it up. The tip of the screwdriver will gently prise away a latch, which is part of the connector on the end of the cable, away from a projection on the body of the connector.
    Power motor release using a 9V or 12V battery. Drivers side forward most pin negative to release (passenger side is the opposite). The motor runs for about 18seconds if the pads are fully worn out.
    Pull off carrier, pads and slider shoes
    Replace shoes (if one is rubber coated, fit this to the upper part of the caliper)
    Put a small amount of silicone grease on pad parts which touch the slider.
    Use Sealey tool to retract piston slowly (don’t turn the piston, just push it back slowly). Keep an eye on the master cylinder level to make sure it doesn’t overflow.
    Put caliper back. Replace slider bolts.
    Power motor in reverse (reverse the polarity of the wiring) to seat piston (about 3sec).
    Press brake pedal to seat pads.
    The worst part is releasing the plug from the EPB. It is probably woth repeating that bit (I broke the first connector before realising this).
    The part of the connector which is fixed to the motor body has a small projection (like a ski ramp) on the back. The free part of the connector which is on the cable has a clip which rides up the ramp when the connector is pushed home, until clip reaches the end of the ramp and drops drops off the end, so clipping it in place securely.
    To release it, you need to insert the screwdrive upwards (running it close to the body of the fixed part of the connector). As you do this, it will lift the clip away from the end of the ramp, and so allow you to pull the connector off.

    Good video, but a few things I would have done differently.
    No need to take off the parking brake motors, I use a 10amp 12 volt power supply to wind the plunger back, its faster and easier.
    I did not see you clean the packing oil from the replacement discs or clean the hub mounting surface and protect the surface with copper slip, I would recommend doing this every time on a disc and pad change.
    It's good practice to inspect the slide pin rubbers and pins, check the rubbers for tears and cracks and the pins for uneven wear, I always clean off the old grease from the slide surfaces and pins then renew with proper slide pin grease, not copper slip.
    I always use a torque wrench to re-torque all brake system nuts and bolts on reassembly.
    A little bit of anti corrosion grease on the mating surfaces of the road wheel and bolts helps next time the wheel is removed, good opportunity to inspect the tyre too.
    Good luck with your next service and stay safe.

      I did this job too a short while ago, but didn't want to deal with removing the motor. What we did is disconnect the wiring harness from the motor, then apply negative 12v to the plug on the motor. You have to watch the motor to see what direction the piston is moving. If it's still moving out, then reverse the leads. Once it screws all the way back in (you can hear a different sound if you listen closely), and then you're done. Now you're not having to replace the seal, Torx, etc. which also saves time, $, and trouble, especially if you live in a very remote area like me, with an hour travel time to my nearest Autozone

    Thanks for sharing the excellent video. Removing the electric parking brake motor assembly seems to be a common DYI practice on many modern cars. However I ended up reversing the electric parking brake using a 9V battery and it worked out very well, so wanted to share that here. I fabbed up two wires with yellow female blade connectors. Then attached the wires to the two flat connectors on the motor. I then set a bit of tension on the piston with the brake piston compressor and held the wires onto the 9V battery. It was easy to tell if the motor was going in the wrong direction, and then just reversed the wires on the battery.

    @joecraven2034 5 лет назад +7

    Finally did this job. Video was very helpful but some comments talk about using an external battery to activate the parking brake so you can compress the piston. The problem with that method is you have to know which way the motor is turning. If you turn too much in the wrong direction it is very difficult to fix. One side worked well for me; the other I must have crossed the wires. Next time I would do it the way the video shows and just remove the motor.

      Hi, once the calipers are stripped down you can see the slider bolts one at the top one at the bottom both have rubber bellows around them, just pull them out and clean both bolts and holes out and give the bolts just a smear of grease on the bolts and reassemble, I use a drill bit to screw round and bring all the old grease and rust out of the hole.

    Have you figured out that it's easier to open the bleeder screw while your depressing the piston than having to remove fluid from the reservoir yet? It also puts cleaner fluid back into the caliper and gets rid of the old acidic fluid making for a better brake job. Of course the best thing would be a complete flush of the system but very few people would know how to do that or have the correct tools. If you were doing a front break job just think of all that oil acidic fluid being pushed back up onto the ABS system. I wouldn't want to have to replace it. Just a thought of preventative wisdom.

    Don't follow this video - as is noted below, it is way easier/safer if you wind back the electronic parking brake with a 9V battery rather than removing it (and risking damaging it). See this video: ruclips.net/video/8y54DKRHlAo/видео.html
    I followed that procedure and it was really easy to push back the piston. I was able to do it with light pressure from a C-clamp. I actually used a 12V, 1 amp power supply (old cell charger) to wind back the piston.

    Many thanks for a very informative video. Your video gave me the confidence to tackle the replacement of my xc60 rear brake pads and discs. The problem I came across was I could not undo one of the 30 torx head bolts holding the motor on, so I used a 12 volt adapter to wind the motor back, this worked well and overcame a big problem and proved a simple and effective way. I did not have a large enough G clamp to compress the piston back but I found that the use a motorcycle tyre lever and piece of timber, together with some strong levering enabled the piston to fully retract although I did bolt the caliper on to one fixing to give a better leverage. I did have some difficulty getting good access to the 15mm bolts due to the electric motor being in position but I used a knuckle joint to overcome this. My xc60 had covered 41,000 miles and one side had heavier worn pads than the other although both discs had worn to their minimum thickness. Again Many Thanks.

    @georgestockwell7305 3 дня назад

    Can I just say, whatever car you have, always pump the brake pedal after installing new brake pads. You have had to push the calliper piston back into the calliper in order to make room for the new thicker pads. Pumping the brake pedal after you finish the job will ensure the calliper piston moves and comes into contact with the brake pad. If you fail to do this, you will drive down the road and when you come to brake for a junction say, your pedal will go down to the floor. NO BRAKES. PANIC.
    Also, when I'm working on my car brakes or steering and suspension, I always renew on BOTH sides to ensure even balance.

    if you have the right tools and have loosened up the bolts you can do both sides in about 40 min
    the trick on the caliper is to fully wind in the take up screw and then press in the piston
    we lubricated under the duct covers with silicon spray grease to ease the return of the piston so it doesnt grip and bugger up the rear discs which is a common fault on these cars
    the front brake is really weird as its needed to split the caliper to change the pads
    you need a really good torx bit to release the 4 screws and a m7 uncommon size allen key to undo the guide pins

      @@seshachary5580 if you're willing to bleed the brakes then it won't hurt to do that. But if there is fluid that is "dirty" it is dirty throughout the entire braking system, not just the caliper. So you would need to flush and replace all fluid in that case. Brake fluid brakes down over time, reducing its boiling point, that's why most manufacturers recommend replacing every few years. But if you're just doing brakes no need to purge any fluid

    Great video, thanks. Might depend on the model, but generally do NOT have to remove the main caliper bracket (those two red lock title bolts) to replace rotor. Since there are no lug studs, the rotors easily pivot out from under the piston bracket. At least on my 2014 S60. Saves a TON of time. Same on front - do NOT split the caliper with the 4 Torx bolts - seems to cause more problems than its worth. Remove teh two bolts under the plastic caps, swap pads and rotor and you’re done.

      Michael, I have the same 2014 S60 T5 59k miles. My 2nd Volvo. Had my brake pads & rotors replaced by a mechanic last week & they couldn’t seem to figure out why the brake pedal seems soft, like it goes too low to the floor. Then they replaced my master cylinder which I don’t believe it needed to be. They bled them, then decided to replace the vacuum booster line. Still the same. They had my car for two weeks & I finally decided to take it to a mechanic familiar with European cars. So the new mechanic, He bled them & said the rear brakes have air trapped in the line that after idk how much brake fluid he went thru but told me he thinks the other shop messed up my abs system & added that his computer didn’t read the abs system. Now I have to take it the dealer. After watching these videos though I’m learning a lot about the break system for my car. Fingers crossed I can get them fixed without getting ripped off 🤦‍♀️

      Why didn’t they just replace the abs pump in the beginning? Got me!! $3800 later and an old abs pump seemed to solve the problem but what a rip off. I think it’s important to take a European car to a mechanic that knows European cars. Period

  • @polw78
    @polw78 11 месяцев назад

    I've read that there is a simple way: disconnect the plug from the parking brake motor and apply a voltage of 12V, at least 5A.
    You have to be careful with the piston, it's best to protect it by putting a hammer between it, in case of a miss with polarization. Then the piston will stop on the hammer, you need to change the polarity.
    The only question is whether the car's computer does not count the number of engine revolutions.???

    @0YouCanCallMeAl0 7 лет назад +1

    If you've got old brake fluid don't just push it back into the system by compressing the piston. Loosen the bleed valve first, to push the old fluid out, bleed the system later after replacing pads/discs. Not doing this results in pushing all the stale/dirty/contaminated fluid, that resides near the piston (seals always let some contaminants in) back into the system where it might damage/block pumps and valves. You'll notice this by seeing dirt floating in the reservoir.

    I have renewed the reservoir and fluid. The rack makes no noise at all. The steering goes back to normal if you lift the engine revs from tick over speed. I’ve checked tyre pressure. It’s as it should be. On loose gravel it’s fine. My steering pump has 2 belts running on it. I cannot find an equivalent pump on eBay.
    It seems no one has seen this problem before. I find this hard to believe.
