What are the reasons for the electronic parking failure in Leopaard CS9?
2 Answers
It is very likely that there is a problem with the electronic handbrake, or it could be caused by worn brake pads, an issue with the electronic system, or a problem with the battery power supply. Here are the specific details: 1. Reset the electronic parking brake: Turn on the car key, press the foot brake and hold the electronic handbrake down for 5 seconds, then pull the electronic handbrake up for 5 seconds. This will initialize and reset the electronic handbrake. 2. Parking brake: Usually refers to the manual brake installed in motor vehicles, commonly known as the handbrake. The common handbrake is generally placed at the position where the driver's right hand hangs down, making it easy to use.
Last time I encountered an electronic parking brake failure, the mechanic said it was due to several common issues. For example, the control module froze, just like a phone getting stuck and needing a reboot; loose or corroded wiring connectors, which are especially prone in rainy weather; or the actuator motor burning out, possibly from overusing the parking brake. False sensor readings aren’t uncommon either, particularly in dusty environments. I remember once when my car’s warning light came on, even the trunk wouldn’t open—later diagnostics revealed voltage instability affecting the system. Never ignore such faults; the safest approach is to drive to a 4S shop to scan for trouble codes, as electronic systems are complex, and DIY tinkering might cause more issues. Some risks can be prevented by avoiding spraying water directly at buttons during car washes.
