URGENT.....help needed to release rear brake disc.

can any one explain PLEASE on how to release rear brake disc.
it is a 2007 RR with electric hand brake .
i cannot seam to find this 'clicking wheel' that releases the hand brake shoes.

The inspection hole needs to be at 6 O'clock.

The adjuster is easy to feel through the hole with the plug removed.

There is also an emergency release near the shifter if I'm correct Whistle

Yeah, adjuster is at 6 o clock, but it's a bit fiddly if you have never done one before. When I changed mine, I didn't set Service Mode on the EPB and it was all fine. FYI, I understand that if you accidentally apply the EPB without the park brake shoes etc connected and the disc fitted, it will destroy the EPB module at £ 400 a pop.....

so is the release at the 6 oclock positon a clicking rotor type where you put a screw driver in and rotate the teeth? 2011 4.4 TdV8 Nara Bronze

yes that the puppy.

the emergency release is in the boot, in the RSH cubby, little loop of wire.

Couldnt figure out what it was, pretty sure its the EPB release though. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

thanks for the info...
when pulled this manually releases the EPB.
is there a procedure to reset the EPB after disc replacement?
sorry but RSH means? ( simply put..the drivers side or passenger side boot cubby?)
many thanks 2011 4.4 TdV8 Nara Bronze
