Default Parking Brake Adjustment with x431

I received my replacement front rotors and pads in 360mm today. Arrived home and knocked out the fronts in 1.5 hours. With the new rear rotors, I had to adjust the parking brake shoes. Used my scanner to help me with that. Easiest parking brake adjustment ever with the x431, no guesswork.

Select "Check Basic Setting of Parking-brake"

Only applies if you have the wheels on. I had mine on jack stands so just selected OK.

Shows you the measurement. Use a flat head screwdriver to adjust the parking brake gear

You'll need to
Select "Check Basic Setting of Parking-brake" and measure after each adjustment. I aimed for 2.2mm

9k, where did you make the adjustment? Are they actuated by cables?

I was thinking the same thing, then noticed there was some small text between the pics:
  • Select "Check Basic Setting of Parking-brake"
  • Only applies if you have the wheels on. I had mine on jack stands so just selected OK.
  • It will apply then release the parking brake.
