Most of the time when someone needs to re center caliper brakes it's because they knocked them off center when putting the wheel on, but don't know it. There's really nothing else to do that unless the mounting bolt is loose.

Like the hundreds of people that have a computer not working because they moved the sensor when they put the wheel on. Many think it is a complicated computer problem.
They think I'm a miracle worker when I just move the sensor back where it was in three seconds!
