How do you put the truck in brake maintenance mode? Couldn't find anything in the owners manual.

There's numerous videos on it. It is only required to work on the rear brakes if you have an electronic parking/emergency brake.

I found lots of info on line.
It doesn't appear in the owner's manual that I can find. Apparently it's in the service manual.

Never even thought about the automatic electronic park brake and brake maintenance. These newfangled gizmos.....

Ya I just saw that. He was doing it on an f150. Not sure the same procedure applies to the ranger......
He says in the beginning it should work on any Ford vehicle. Seems worth a try at least

I wonder is it's the same as the Mazda, since mazda and ford did so much together?

Does this gen ranger have anything but electronic emergency brakes?

I do miss the old "rip-it" style parking brakes.
