I dont think the parking brake will reset with a battery pull. There is a procedure you do to reser the handbrake when you change the discs etc which involved driving it an pulling on the handbrake (or actually pulling the electric leaver) when driving. Not sure if it will help or do more damage though. Do you get tension on both cables going to the brakes when its pulled on? |

I have a suspicion that I am only getting tension on one side so will investigate that possibility further tomorrow. |

There is alot about the screeching and how to resolve it online . Its mostly on the Discovery forums but im not sure if the FFRRs handbrake module / mechanism can be reached as easily. I had mine replaced recently and the rear suspension had to be dropped. I think the screeching is caused by the screw used to pull and release the cables goes past its maximum. 2015 4.4 AB

Sorted with the help of Bodsy's brake bible for the Disco 3. The bang had knocked the shoes out of kilter somehow so I have re set up the parking brake from scratch and fitted new disks and pads at the same time...no more screeching or bongs or flashing warning lights. |
