02596 code

[tipptop]

So I finally got it sorted. Such a contrary system. All I did was run the pad change opening and closing procedure again, then the pad thickness adaptation, then the function test. Then I tried to clear the code again and it cleared. Then when I killed ignition with the stop button, there was a satisfying whirr from the epb motors as they did the final calibration.

So for anyone else that stumbles across this problem,

Follow the procedure outlined in the ross tech video.

If you can't clear the 02596 code and the final calibration doesn't happen after you kill ignition then:

Cycle epb on then off again.
Open epb fully in basic settings, group 007, wait 30 seconds then close controller.
Close ebp fully in basic settings, group 006, wait 30 seconds then close controller.
Put in new pad thickness in adaptation, group 006, test, then save.
Run function test in basic settings, group 010, ebp moves in and out 3 times, wait 30 seconds then close controller.
Then open epb controller and try clear the fault codes, if they clear then close vcds, turn off ignition, lock steering.
You should now hear the motors do the final calibration.
Loudly curse about the hours you've lost with this pernickety system.
