Small Favor From Someone With Carly App

Im asking a favor from someone with the full version of Carly app to test whether it can place a F48 AWD X1's (preferably a 2018 version) electronic parking brake into service mode. I'm going to do a rear brake job very soon and need confirmation as to whether the Carly app has this functionality before buying.

A few scan tools that can allegedly do this actually cant after testing them out.

Thanks a lot!

I've not tried Carly's ebrake service mode feature on my x1. I've put my x3 ebrake into service mode manually using a star bit socket to turn ebrake screw into service mode, and no problems. This is how you can service manually.
I would safely assume you can do the same on x1 manually or by software

Thanks, ejw2011. You're assumption is correct about the X1, too. Theres a newtis service procedure on doing it manually. I'll do it manually as a last resort as I prefer to retract it via diagnostic tool first. Should be easier, quicker and less risk of me messing something up via scan tool option.
