C8 Electronic Parking Brake Fault

Hi, I've got a 2014 Citroen C8, gasoline engine, with a dodgy electronic parking brake. It's completely dead, and the error memory has a fault stored. Speedometer's showing a warning light too. Mileage is at 52720 km. Anyone seen this before?

A 2014 Citroen C8 experienced a complete failure of the electronic parking brake, accompanied by a warning light on the speedometer. The fault was traced to the electric motor in the brake calliper. A similar issue was noted in a Volvo V70, suggesting a common problem with the electric motor. The recommended solution was to visit a workshop for diagnosis and replacement of the faulty motor, which resolved the issue.

Did this summary help you solve your problem?

I had a similar issue with my previous Volvo V70. The symptoms sound very familiar. Was the error related to the brake control module or perhaps the electric motor itself?

The error points towards the electric motor in the brake calliper. Does that match your experience with the Volvo?

Yes, that confirms my suspicion. The electric motor in the calliper was the culprit in my Volvo as well. I would suggest a visit to the workshop. They should be able to diagnose it properly and replace the faulty motor.

Thanks for the insight! Took it to the workshop, and you were spot on. Defective electric motor in the brake calliper. Repair cost was 505€. All sorted now.
