What is the solution for the electronic parking brake failure in the AX7?
2 Answers
The solution for the electronic parking brake failure in the AX7 is as follows: Generally, the issue with the electronic parking brake is that it cannot be engaged or released. If the electronic parking brake fails to engage, you can try restarting the vehicle and attempting again. If the operation fails, it is necessary to visit a repair shop or a 4S store for a detailed inspection or repair. Relevant information is as follows: 1. Fault: If the electronic parking brake fails after replacing the rear brake pads, it is recommended to go to a repair shop or a 4S store to relearn and match the electronic brake. For other faults, it is necessary to check the circuit from the fuse or the electronic parking brake switch. The electronic parking brake is a technology that uses electronic control to achieve parking braking. Its working principle is the same as that of a mechanical handbrake, using the friction generated between the brake disc and the brake pad to control parking braking, except that the control method changes from a lever handbrake to an electronic button. 2. Introduction: If the electronic parking brake is locked and it is difficult to release the rear wheels when shifting into forward or reverse gear, do not increase the throttle and force the locked rear wheels. You can try turning off the engine, releasing the parking brake, kicking the locked rear wheels a few times, and then manually rocking the vehicle back and forth according to the vehicle's natural swinging cycle. As the swinging amplitude increases, the rear wheels will eventually release.
Seeing your question, as someone who has driven for decades, electronic parking brake failure is a common issue. Don't panic yet. First, park your car in a safe place and turn off the engine to try restarting the system, then check if the indicator light comes on. Blown fuses are the most frequent cause - look for the relevant fuse in the instrument panel fuse box (for AX7 models, it's usually under the center console). If the button isn't responding, it might be dust or wiring contact issues - gently clean the connectors. But avoid forcing anything, as a stuck motor could make things worse. If you can't resolve it, immediately contact a 4S shop or professional repair shop - they have diagnostic tools to check the control module. For daily driving, remember regular maintenance and checking the electronic system's waterproofing to extend the parking brake's lifespan. I've seen many similar cases - with timely handling, safe driving isn't a problem. Always prioritize safety - engage mechanical locking after parking.
