Title: Electronic Handbrake won’t release
Post by: Wakkk on September 27, 2020, 02:12:26 pm

So I have an issue with my handbrake, randomly yesterday the handbrake didn’t release. When I push down the button nothing happens, no sound of handbrake releasing or light going off. There is no errors coming up. Can anyone help as I can’t move my car.

Is there an emergency release under the centre console?

Check handbook.

There is a release for the gearbox under the gator but nothing like that for the brakes.
