So, activating the rear brake service mode on a 2020 Chevy Equinox, huh? you’ll want to make sure you’re comfy around cars. Here’s how I did it. First, turn off the ignition then press and hold the brake pedal. Next, turn the key to the ‘on’ position, not start. Keep holding until you see the ABS light flash or you’ll hear a buzzer, maybe both. It’s kinda weird, but that’s how it is. The rear brake caliper should unlock. might need to jiggle the pedal a bit.
Pretty simple, right? takes a minute but not hard. And yeah, it worked for me without a hitch. Have you ever tried this by yourself or do you always go to a mechanic? stays better to try when you’re confident. Don’t keep doing it too much, don’t wanna wear out your system. Maybe this helps. And just to add, if it doesn’t work, check the manual, they always have the right info, sometimes it’s hidden. And good luck, hope it goes smooth for you!
