Can a Car Be Towed with the Electronic Parking Brake Engaged?
1 Answers
Yes, but it is advisable to release the parking brake. Press the brake pedal with your foot and press the parking button to disengage the parking brake. Below is a detailed introduction to the electronic parking brake: 1. Introduction: The electronic parking brake is a technology that achieves parking braking through electronic control. Its working principle is the same as that of a mechanical handbrake, both achieving parking braking control through the friction generated between the brake disc and the brake pads, except that the control method has changed from the previous mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button. The electronic parking brake is also known as the electronic parking brake system. 2. Application: The working principle of the electronic parking system is the same as that of the manual mechanical parking brake system, achieving parking through the friction clamping between the brake shoes and the brake drum or between the friction pads and the brake disc, except that the control method is replaced by electronic buttons and motor actions instead of the original manual operation and mechanical linkage, so the system is fully called the electronically controlled mechanical parking brake system.
