Is the Corolla's Electronic Parking Brake Automatic?
1 Answers
The Corolla's electronic parking brake is not automatic. Here’s how to use the electronic parking brake in the new Corolla: 1. After starting, the vehicle's computer sets the engine to idle, and the brake motor engages the brake pads to apply the brake. 2. Before the car starts, the electronic parking brake cannot be released; check if the battery is dead or if the vehicle's computer has frozen. 3. If the battery is dead, replace the motor; if the computer has frozen, restart the system. Relevant information about the electronic parking brake is as follows: 1. 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 rely on the friction generated between the brake disc and brake pads to control parking braking. The only difference is that the control method has changed from a mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button. 2. The electronic parking brake is also known as the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) system. The EPB system integrates the temporary braking function during driving with the long-term parking braking function and achieves parking braking through electronic control.
