Hey guys, how do you push the piston back into the caliper on the secondary E-Braker Caliper? Do I crack that bleeder screw then push it back in? will I have to bleed the brakes? Thanks.

Usually you can use a pair of needle nose pliers - one tip in each dimple in the piston. Rotate clockwise and push; it's a fairly coarse thread. Release the parking brake first. Opening the bleeder won't make any difference, it's a mechanical gizmo inside you're fighting against. You don't have to bleed the brakes if you're changing pads. As a rebuilder, please don't use a hammer or pliers, it won't work...
