Insignia Electronic Parking Brake Failure

My 2020 Vauxhall Insignia, gasoline engine, has 145776 km. The electronic parking brake is non-functional, with an error stored and a warning light showing. I suspect the electric motor in the brake caliper. Has anyone else experienced this?

Sounds familiar! I had the same issue with my Insignia. Did your car throw any other weird codes, or just the parking brake error?

Just the parking brake code. Did you sort it yourself, or did you take it to a workshop? What was the final verdict?

I couldn't sort it myself. Eventually, I took it to a mechanic. The electric motor in the brake caliper was indeed faulty, as you suspected. It cost me about 500€ to fix. Get yours checked soon.

That's what I feared. Sounds like I'm going to the workshop. Thanks for confirming my suspicions and sharing your experience! It ended up costing 505€.
