Key Features & Benefits

This module basically manages everything related to your electronic parking brake – so engaging and disengaging the brake, monitoring the system for issues, and communicating with other vehicle systems like your stability control. It handles the power to the brake motors at each wheel, and makes sure everything works smoothly when you pull that parking brake switch. It also often includes functions related to auto – hold, where the brake keeps the car stopped on a hill for you. It’s really the brain of the electronic parking brake system. The switch in the cabin sends a signal to this module, and then the module tells the calipers at the rear wheels to apply or release the brake. It's connected to the ABS system because, well, the parking brake sometimes uses those same components. It also talks to the car’s computer to know when it’s safe to release the brake automatically when you pull away.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Honestly, if this module goes bad, your parking brake might not hold, or it might not release properly. You’ll notice if the parking brake light stays on, or if you hear strange noises when you engage or disengage it. It acts like a shield protecting you from rolling away on a hill, so it's definitely a safety item. If it fails completely, you’re looking at a potential tow situation, or at the very least, a repair you can’t really put off.
