Static Apply/Release

For the static apply to operate, the ignition can be on or off. When the EPB switch is pulled up, the EPB module activates both EPB actuators to apply the brakes and signals the IC to turn on the red parking brake warning indicator. The warning indicator remains on continuously while the ignition is on, and for at least 10 seconds after the ignition goes off.

For the static release to operate, the ignition must be on and the brake pedal pressed or can be released with Engine ON and accelerator pedal pressed and EPB switch in release position. When the EPB switch is pressed down, the EPB module then activates both EPB actuators to release the brakes and signals the IC to turn off the red parking brake warning indicator.
