  3. Disconnect the parking brake caliper harness.
    Note: If necessary, remove the rear wheel.
    Note: After connecting the electric parking brake caliper harness, wrap the connector seam with electrical tape to prevent dirt ingress.
  4. Connect the connector on the tool harness to the parking brake caliper.

Warning: After the next step, the vehicle will be free-rolling. Ensure that the wheel chocks are secure.

  1. Hold down the button on the tool harness until the sound of the caliper motor is no longer audible. This usually takes approximately 4 seconds.
    Note: If the parking brake calipers do not release, turn off the 12V power supply, then turn it back on. Repeat step 7.
  2. Disconnect the tool harness from the parking brake caliper.
    Caution: Do not reconnect the vehicle’s harness to the parking brake caliper until the vehicle has arrived at its destination. Reconnecting the harness might cause the parking brake to re-engage.
  3. Reinstall the rear wheel.
