Electric brake magnet retaining clip removal


Hi All

I'm about to change brake magnets on the Van both sides as one has worn to it's limit wear mark. Not sure how to remove the magnet retaining clip (In center of magnet) any advice appreciated.

Regards.

Outback.

Push magnet inwards and I usually just use a small screw driver
to unclip it. When redoing wires for magnets I always solder them
together and use heat shrink, don't like cable joiners.

Hi Outback

If you do a google search on "Alko magnet replacement" you will find a video on how to replace them.

To watch the video is easier than us all putting it into words.

Regards.

Hetho

Be aware that there is a difference between "On Road" and "Off Road' magnets, Get the correct ones for your setup.
