Snapdragon,

Quote:
all trouble codes, then do the Function Test:
Prerequisites:
Connect a battery charger as per repair manual.
Cycle the Parking Brake ON, then OFF first.
[Select]
[53 - Parking Brake]
[Basic Settings - 04]
Group 010
[Go!]
Activate the Basic Setting.
[ON/OFF/Next]
The brake pads are now opening and closing 3 times.
Wait 30 seconds after the the brakes stop making noise.
[Done, Go Back]
[Close Controller, Go Back - 06]
Clear all codes again.
Do you still get EPROM error?
Tried that today - after leaving the charger connected for several hours on a brand new battery - switch is ineffective (disabled) and so impossible to cycle EPB. All other functions requiring the motors also disabled.

EEPROM error is consistent and has been since I bought the car - didn't do anything about it as the EPB always worked regardless!
