ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE
Fault finding – System operation
PRESENTATION OF THE PARKING BRAKE:
The electronic parking brake provides the following functions:
– keeps the vehicle stationary when stopped (parking brake).
– 'dynamic' emergency brake (if the main brakes fail).
– automatic braking force adjustment according to the slope (adapted application),
– electronically-assisted parking brake application when the engine is stopped (depending on configuration),
– easy start with electronically-assisted parking brake release (depending on configuration),
– manual application and release by pulling on the lever.
SYSTEM COMPONENTS AND OPERATION:
The system consists of the following components:
●Control lever with brake on indicator light.
– For applying and releasing the parking brake.
●Control unit (computer) housing an electric motor, the brake cable hooks, angle sensor and force sensor.
–The angle sensor controls locking according to the angle of the slope.
–The force sensor checks and corrects the force applied to the brakes.
●Clutch pedal position sensor to help with pulling away.
– Informs the computer of the vehicle's clutch position (the position of the pedal enables the torque necessary for
vehicle movement to be obtained).
●Tw o mechanical cables
– Convey the mechanical force to the rear brakes.
●Emergency control cable (in the central storage compartment on the LAGUNA, VEL SATIS and ESPACE and in
the boot on the SCENIC).
– Enables the rear brakes to be released in the event of the battery or parking brake failing.
●Warning lights and symbol on the instrument panel.
– Indicate application, releasing and any faults on the parking brake.
Note:
The parking brake cable play compensation is performed automatically by the control unit.

MANUAL OPERATION:
– The parking brake is engaged by pulling on the control lever (normal braking immobilises the vehicle).
– Over-application can be obtained by pulling and holding the lever for 5 seconds (maximum application for steep
hills or when the vehicle has reached its maximum permissible all-up weight).
– When the parking brake is applied, the computer super-applies if the force applied to the rear brake callipers is
insufficient (pads cooling) or if the computer detects slight vehicle movement. This detection is limited to
24 hours.
– The parking brake is released when the control lever is applied fully and the release switch is pressed.
ASSISTED OPERATION:
The electronic parking brake enables assisted application and release of the brake:
●Applying the brake: When the engine is switched off, the parking brake is applied when the driver presses the
start button
●Releasing: The brake releases when the drive wheels reach the torque required to move the vehicle
(Note:with automatic transmission, the driver's door must be closed).
Restrictions on assisted brake release in automatic transmissions:
Assisted release is not allowed in the following cases:
– Opening the driver's door followed by engaging a gear (gear lever in position D).
– Engaging a gear (gear lever in position D) followed by opening the driver's door. Note:
When the parking brake is applied, the red light on the instrument panel (brake pads) and indicator light on the
lever are lit.
Below 6 mph (10 km/h) pulling the lever applies the rear brakes. Above 6 mph (10 km/h) pulling the lever
provides dynamic emergency braking without locking the rear wheels (statutory deceleration of 1.5 m/s
2).
The electronic parking brake can only be released when the steering column is unlocked (forced + after ignition
feed, see Introduction).
Note: In this case, the instrument panel displays the message Lever in P or N and the buzzer on the instrument
panel sounds.
Note: In this case, release is authorised for 5 s after the driver's door has been opened (e.g. for a manoeuvre).
After 5 seconds release is prevented.
Note:
Assisted braking and release only occurs if the computer has been configured.
For details on how these configurations function, see Configuration and programming.

1. DEF: No signal
2. DEF: Signal inconsistency
3. DEF: Short circuit
4. DEF: Lever fault
NOTESPriorities when dealing with a number of faults:
Deal with faults: DF035 Undervoltage, DF055 Battery undervoltage and DF054
Battery voltage too high first, if they are present or stored.
Note:
The fault does not usually come from the electronic parking brake computer.
The fault is only stored after the brakes have been applied 3 times with the control
level.
Conditions for applying the fault finding procedure to a stored fault:
Deal with the fault as if it were present.
Only for Vdiag 08, 0C and 0D:
If there is a stored fault, refer to the statuses and parameters when it appears.
Explanation of counters: see Introduction.
If the fault is stored and PR018 = 0 and PR022 > 25 clear the fault: do not take this
fault into account.
If the fault is stored and PR019 < 3, clear the fault: do not take this fault into account.
Using the diagnostic tool (PARKING sub-function), check the operation of the parking brake control lever. With the
ignition switched on, statuses ET008, ET009 and ET010 should operate as follows:
ET008 "Engagement

1. DEF
NOTESSpecial notes:
The 1.DEF code indicates an inconsistency between the
measured force value (PR004) and the parking brake status
(ET030: Electronic parking brake operation when there
is a fault in the fault context).
This fault can appear after disconnecting the battery
(parking brake applied).
Check the context of the fault when the fault appears:
If ET030 is S TAT U S 5 , S TAT U S 6 , S TAT U S 7 , S TAT U S 8 , S TAT U S 9 o r S TAT U S 1 0 and if PR004 is greater than
450 N and if PR012 Vehicle speed is 0 mph (0 km/h) when the fault appears:
– check to see if the battery has been disconnected, if it has, the appearance of this fault is normal, clear the
fault,
– if not, check the computer supply voltage and the battery.
Repair if necessary.
If the fault persists, contact the Techline.
If ET030 is S TAT U S 5 , S TAT U S 6 , S TAT U S 7 and if PR004 is less than 450 N and if PR012 Vehicle speed is
less than 3 mph (5 km/h) when the fault appears:
– Check for traces of heating on the brakes:
– Check that the pads have returned correctly to the rest position.
– Check that the small lever has sufficient return force.
– Check that there is no friction or points of resistance on the cables.
– If there is no indication of any defective operation of these components and if PR019 < 3 and PR022 >
25 and PR018 < 15, then clear the fault.
– If not, contact the Techline.
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.
AFTER REPAIRIf the computer has been replaced (at the request of the Techline), initialise the
electronic parking brake computer (see Replacement of components).
Issue several braking and release commands to confirm the repair.
Deal with any other faults.

2. DEF
NOTESSpecial notes:
The specification 2.DEF mainly comes from a fault with the
electrical power supply, braking application travel or the
internal force sensor.
If this fault appears after the parking brake has been replaced:
– Check the conformity of the parking brake fitting.
– Check that the battery voltage PR001 is greater than 12.5 V.
– Clear the fault and restart the procedure for fitting the parking brake: see Replacement of components.
Check the fault context when the fault appears: if the battery voltage PR001 is less than 9 V when the fault
appears, then:
– Check the supply line and that the resistance is less than 150 m.
– If there is no sign of a fault on the supply line and if PR019 < 3 and PR022 > 25 and PR018 < 15 then clear
the fault.
Check the fault context when the fault appears: If ET028 Brake switch signal is PRESSED, then:
–If PR019 < 3 and PR022 > 25 and PR018 < 15, then clear the fault.
– The fault can be caused when the user depresses the brake pedal hard, when the parking brake is being
applied. If this is the case, clear the fault.
If there is a loud noise when applying, when maximum braking is requested, then the cause may be mechanical.
Check that the parking brake mechanical tensioning line is correct:
– Parking brake cables correctly fitted.
– Good condition of the parking brake cables (no seizing or deterioration).
– Conformity, condition and proper functioning of the rear brake callipers.
– Condition and conformity of rear brake pads.
– Conformity of rear brakes bleeding.
Carry out the necessary repairs.
Using the diagnostic tool (PARKING sub-function), display the parameters PR005 Force setpoint and PR004
Measured force value. These must have the various values recorded in the conformity check.
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.
AFTER REPAIRIf the computer has been replaced (at the request of the Techline), initialise the
electronic parking brake computer (see Replacement of components).
Issue several braking and release commands to confirm the repair.
Deal with any other faults.
