Yes, during diagnostics, the error code indicates a fault within the electronic parking brake system. And yes, the brake control is completely unresponsive. Is this the same issue you had?

Sounds exactly like what happened to mine. I wouldn't mess with it yourself to be honest. Just find a reliable workshop and have them check the electric motor in the brake calliper. They should sort it out fairly quickly.

Thank you for the advice. I appreciate you confirming the issue I am experiencing. I will take it to a workshop as you suggested. The estimated repair cost they gave me is 505€, which seems reasonable.

Hey, I also drive a GS. I had something similar happen a while back. By error memory, you mean when brake diagnostics are run, it shows a fault? Does it feel like the brake control is totally unresponsive?
