Skoda Superb Electronic Parking Brake Problem

My 2021 Skoda Superb, diesel engine, is presenting an issue with the electronic parking brake. The system is completely unresponsive, and a warning light is illuminated. An error is also logged. Could a defective electric motor in the brake caliper be the cause?

I had a similar issue with my Superb. Was the brake switch checked? Could also be a brake sensor acting up.

Interesting. Did you also experience a complete parking brake failure accompanied by a warning light on the dashboard? Was there an error code stored?

Yes, the symptoms were identical. Complete failure, warning light, and error code. I would suggest taking it to a workshop for a proper diagnosis. They will probably tell you to replace the caliper.

Appreciate the insight. Turns out the electric motor in the brake caliper was indeed the culprit. Cost me around 505€ to get it sorted. Hopefully, this information will be useful for anyone else encountering similar parking brake issues.
