Default How do you adjust rear emergency brake

CX-7 has 56k miles on it and the emergency brake light keep poping on and off. Some times I would drive it and notice the light come on. some times when I start it the light is on? Does the rear brakes have different pads then the rear emergency brakes??

Check your pads, might be do for a change. The light is prolly going & off due to the amount of brake fluid in your resavoir. If that's low, then check all 4 corners for pad wear & more than likely, you'll need new brakes.

The e brake uses separate pads from the regular rear brake pads. It actually has shoes on the inside/hub of the rear rotors. Last I checked, they are pretty expensive too. Was going to change mine till they gave me the price...Something like $100 ish.
