Loosen the lug nuts on the tire. Then jack up your car. Remove the tire. You will see the rotor, pads and caliper. Unbolt the caliper and set out of way but do not let it dangle by the brake line or crimp it. Look at the rotor to make sure it has no grooves in it. If it does it may need to be resurfaced at a shop. Turn the caliper over and see the pins or bolts holding the brake pad. Loosen them to get the old brake pads out. Replace and then put everything back together.
