Electronic Parking Brake Issue after rear brake pad change

[Pillak]

Hi

I changed the rear brake pads and rotors after putting the epb in maintanance mode and releasing it from maintanance mode after the job. I ensured that I listened to the parking brake motor wind out and back in the maintanance mode, which helped compressing the piston with minimal resistance. However the electric parking brake is showing the following error messages: "Electric parking brake system problem. Parking brake not available. See dealer". Tried recycling multiples times, but to no avail. I would hate to take it to the dealer, so please help!

Thanks in advance.

Here are the codes that are triggered.

When you took them out of maintenance, you did get the success notification right? And you cycled the parking brake a few times?

That error and codes are saying they don't see the brake caliper epb as serviceable and that happens when they're disconnected or still in maintenance.

I would make double sure the sensors are plugged in, then clear the codes and cycle the PB 3-4 times. I always do EPBs manually so I'm not familiar with maintenance mode issues.

I did mine last year, putting it into maintenance mode, swapped pads and taking out of maintenance when done. All went effortlessly.

Do both epb motors make noise and loosen/tighten when engaging/disengaging the epb or enabling/disabling maintenance mode? Did you do anything with the brake fluid? Check fluid level?

Make sure the epb motor housing isn't cracked or damaged. Check wires for damaged insulation, cuts, or disconnected. I would go around and unplug and replug all the connectors. The rears connectors sometimes feel like they are plugged in but require extra force to get the clip to lock it in place.
