Warning lamp failure makes me think its not the actual operation of the park brake but rather the electric circuit that activates the handbrake indicator on the dash. Is the light coming on and going off as it should? I suspect an issue at the park brake itself related to the wiring such as a corroded connector. |

I will try to remove and inspect the loom from the brake module to the left side boot space. The connector did not appear to have any signs of corrosion but it is possible there could have been hidden within the connector.

And yes, the red light goes off when the engine is started/park brake released |

I don’t suppose you made any headway with this did you?

No, not yet. From researching the issue, I found some similar situations of electrical problems caused by corroded connections.

Fair play, cheers for the heads up on some places to look. I will pop it up on the lift this week and look at the condition of the plug going in to the module, then start looking at tracing the loom and checking for breakages. I’ll let you know if I ever find the fault! Current wallet destroyers:

Best of luck with it and report back if you find anything. |
