Any suggestions on how to get more slack on this part? The end cord to the EPB module? As I need it to pull out a little bit more for reassembly of brake pads.

Looking to update and upgrade your Genesis luxury sport automobile? Look no further than right here in our own forum store - where orders are shipped immediately!
Use a scan tool that has the EPB function to release tension on the parking brake cable, and afterwards to re-initialize it.

I did not have to adjust my EPB for my rear pad or rotor removal. I believe I just used the parking brake button to manually disengage the parking brakes and installed the rotors and pads.

Correction: I see that you probably talking about the rear parking brake shoes(pads). I have no idea on how to just loosen the parking brake cable.

Would that be the actuator control- release and actuator control- apply under electronic parking brake control module for a scanner? Having a hard time finding a scanner and the one I did for Hyundai just shows actuator control for EPB. As I did that release and it did nothing, unless I am suppose to tug at hard by hand.
 
I would have thought that EPB actuator release would do it.

I think that those just two apply and release the parking brake.

Yeah, it's not loosen the end of the cable at all with that function.

Is there a way to manually loosen it so that I can have it extend out further if I opened the EPB module? As access to that is easy and fast.
