Hi all
i am a newbie to the club and a newbie jag owner
my 2007 S type 2.7 diesel had the parking brake fault a couple of weeks ago and would not disengage. I followed the advice on the forums and disconnected the battery and did the recalibration and all was fine for a few days.
It has done it three times since so I followed some other advice and started to disengage the parking brake before starting the engine. This worked for a few days until yesterday when I had the parking brake warning message but this time it said unable to activate the parking brake so this time I was unable to set the parking brake when I got home. Again the battery disconnect trick has reset it. It's just a pain having to do this every few days. I was thinking of fitting a battery isolation switch to the negative side to save me having to undo the battery terminal every time but of course this is not a solution to the actual problem
can anyone offer any further advice please. The car starts fine with no signs of a flat battery however the battery does have jaguar written down the side of it so may well be the original. As said its a 2007 and it's fine 80k miles.
I have checked the connections on the epb module and they seem fine
earth terminal seems to have a good connection to the bodywork with no signs of corrosion.
All help gratefully received thank you
