06 e350 brake noise
Hi, I changed my brake pads last night. Everything went well and all put in. This morning, without turning on the engine, I depressed the brake pedal and I could hear the noise from the brake unit under the hood. The noise was heard after 3-4 times pressing the pedal.
For these 350s, is there something I needed to do?

From what I've read. Sbc must be disconnected or deactivated prior to brake job. So I replaced brake pads last night without deactivate the sbc nor bleed the brake lines. Now they are installed, any suggestion on how to make that noise goes away?
Could it be the sbc that was not deactivated?

The reason to deactivate the sbc is so it doesn't come on while you are replacing the brake pads, if it did then the system would pressurize, and there would be the possibility of you losing a finger if it was in the way of the caliper piston.
I just went out to my car, pumped the brakes 4 times (key out of the ignition) and the sbc came on. As I said before, I think it is normal.
