Service
Prior to removing rear brake components such as the calipers, pads, or rotors, it is necessary
to use the Subaru Select Monitor (SSM) to electrically release the EPB actuator assembly. This
procedure is referred to as “Brake Maintenance Mode” and can be found in the Work Support
section of the Brake Control System. Failure to perform the Brake Maintenance Mode functions
may result in damage to the EPB assembly.

The SSM will display messages directing the user on the necessary actions. During Brake
Maintenance Mode, the Parking Brake switch will be disabled to prevent unintended application
or release. However, care should still be taken when working around the systems components.
Always refer to the appropriate service manual for complete directions when servicing the rear
brakes and utilizing the Brake Maintenance Mode
