Hi wanted to go into service mode to clean calipers.
Seen vids on utube where they hold ok and phone button and u get into more options ... mine does not change from trip or odo panel when holding ok and phone..

What am i doing wrong pls.

Those who know, know. Legit question about electronic handbrake. You access the pad replacement menu via the steering wheel buttons.

Sorry woz under the car at the time.

It was from trip. Nav down to the odo with 3 nos on it and hold ok and phone for about 3 seconds.
Motor goes fully back. (On rear calipers).
Flip retain spring.
Put screwdriver thru hole in middle of caliper thru outer pad cental channel and gently lever piston back.
To remove caliper and pads, pop dust caps from slide pin rubbers. Use 7mm allen hex male in ends of slide pins. When done I cleaned them in acetone. On fitting use a bit of blue loctite on thread. Only use silicone grease on the pins, most greases soften the rubber pin bushes to a sticky mess.
Caliper comes away. Inner pad seems to drop out bit too easy.
When done reset caliper motor on dash with end service mode ok. Sommat like that and motor settles back. Job done.

agree, OP was not beautiful but perfectly clear....

key position, battery voltage or operator error I expect.
