The Strategic Tools & Equipment VW/Audi EPB & Mercedes SBC Brake Service Tool, No. ABEPBSBC12, retracts the calipers electrically, allowing the brake pads to be removed for service. The tool advances calipers after servicing to the original position without affecting the current calibration. The Mercedes SBC system incorporates various systems previously separate (ABS, ASR, BAS, ESP and ETS). The system runs pre-checks which include a pressurization of the braking system. The SBC tool disables the system during service and repair work for a safe working environment, and clears codes as well.
