Yes - it doesn't engage (no motor noise, no clonks, no whirrs, nothing). Lights came on while driving, not when parked or anything. Land Rover Addict

the only thing i can find re the epb is ref to the to the emergency release cable and as yours does not engage then its most probably no help...i suppose you've done the obligatory battery disconnection.. ... - .- -.

Disabled my DRL's and the EPB worked - then about 30 minutes later failed.

slightly, try a drop test on the battery to see if you have any dead cells.. ... - .- -.

It's the original battery from 2006 - so I'm going to take the plunge and order a new one..... Land Rover Addict

No faults logged on the LCM - only the Parking Brake ECU and the TMC (always there). Land Rover Addict

I pretty much always have the TMC antenna fault - but it works fine. |

TMC isn't the problem and has always registered an antenna fault even though it works Land Rover Addict

Mine too - although it sometimes required re-tuning |

Well I am baffled. Had the battery tested, all fine and no need to replace. While there also re-ran fault clearing routine on IID - all cleared. Now I don't get a blank status message on first start (i.e. it doesn't remember which trip option to show, such as TIME, RANGE etc) and it seems very happy. No errors logged for EPB any more and battery seems to be like new Got to love Land Rovers! Land Rover Addict
