4.2.2 Electronic Parking Brake
Electronic Parking Brake(EPB) allows the vehicle operator to engage or disengage the parking
brake at the touch of a button. This section demonstrates the basic steps for working on the EPB
systems found in VW/Audi vehicles.
Typical menu options include:
●
Open Parking Brake
●
Close Parking Brake
●
Parking Brake Test
●
Adaptation (Audi A8 only)
NOTE
●
The EPB module is very sensitive to low voltage conditions! It is critical that a battery charger is
properly connected and used for the duration of the rear brake job. Vehicles with a battery
mounted in the rear typically use a battery management module and it is essential to connect
the charger properly at the charging posts.
●
Verify that the EPB system is working properly prior to the repair. This includes but is not limited
to applying the normal hydraulic brake pedal and operating the EPB switch and running a
complete check of faults prior to repairs.
●
Make sure the system is fully assembled prior to repairs! This includes the calipers properly
installed on the rotors with pads and all electrical components being connected.
●
The EPB system must be put into a service mode prior to the calipers being removed from the
vehicle so the pistons can be pushed into the caliper housing.
