Parking Brake (G1817845): Overview
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 Jaguar XE and 2019 Jaguar XE. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The Electric Park Brake (EPB) is an electrically-actuated system that operates the calipers on the rear brakes. The system consists of:
- An EPB switch
- Two EPB actuators
- Clutch pedal position sensor (manual transmission vehicles only)
- Two warning indicators
- ABS control module
The EPB control module, integrated in the Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) control module, controls the EPB. The system uses two actuators to apply and release the rear disc brakes. The EPB switch activates software to start the operation of the EPB. The EPB has the following operating modes:
- Static apply/release
- Ignition off apply (manual transmission vehicles only)
- Drive Away Release (DAR)
- Automatic transmission release
- High temperature reclamp
- Driver exit warning
- Roll away reclamp
- Dynamic apply
Signals from other vehicle systems for operation of the EPB are transmitted to the ABS control module on the High Speed (HS) Chassis Controller Area Network (CAN) and the HS CAN Powertrain systems Bus.
