Start by checking the fuse for the electric parking brake system to ensure it's not blown. If the fuse is intact, inspect the parking brake cables for any visible damage or disconnection. If these initial checks don't resolve the issue, it may be necessary to have a diagnostic scan performed to check for error codes related to the control unit. Let me know how it goes or if you have further questions!
Thank you, I will look into it. I will keep you updated as soon as possible.

The engine works. But how can I check if the cables are not broken? Is the parking brake (EPB) only on the rear wheels?

Yes, the electric parking brake (EPB) typically operates on the rear wheels. To check if the cables are broken, visually inspect the cables running from the EPB motor to the rear brakes for any signs of wear, fraying, or disconnection. You can also manually pull on the cables to see if they are loose or not engaging properly. If you're unsure or unable to access the cables easily, it might be best to have a mechanic inspect them for you. Let me know if you have any further questions or need more assistance!
