CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note


  • This DTC may be stored when the system changes to pad replacement mode, but this is not a malfunction.

  • This DTC may be stored when the parking brake is forcibly released, but this is not a malfunction.

  • The electric parking brake may still operate up to 20 seconds after the ignition switch is turned off. Before disconnecting connectors or fuses, turn the ignition switch off and wait 20 seconds or more.

  • When replacing the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly), operate the electric parking brake switch (electric parking brake switch assembly) as the parking brake indicator light (red) blinks when the ignition switch is first turned to ON.

    2. Check the parking brake wire assembly for damage.

      OK
      No damage.

      Tech Tips

      If damaged, there may be a short in the wire harness or a short to ground.

    3. Inspect the parking brake wire assembly.

  5. INSPECT REAR BRAKE AND PARKING BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY


    1. Enter rear brake pad replacement mode.

      Click here

    2. Turn the ignition switch off.

    3. Check that the rotating parts are not seized or the actuator is not spinning freely.


      1. Check that the parking brake actuator assembly is installed properly to the rear brake caliper and that it is not spinning freely.
