Parking Brake - Overview: Overview
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Lincoln Navigator. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The parking brake system uses 2 switch activated, ECU controlled motors to apply and release the rear brake calipers. The ABS module controls and monitors the parking brake system and sets Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) when a fault is present in the system. The IPC illuminates the parking brake warning indicator and displays a message in the message center when a fault is present, when the parking brakes are applied and when they are released.
