It would be very helpful to know the vehicle model, MY, kilometres/miles and conditions the vehicle is operated under.

What is the battery voltage across the terminals with the ignition in the OFF position when checked with a voltmeter?

2007 xj8-L .. I use the emergency brake at Redline to slip it into neutral and pull the emergency brake on because I have a bad leg. Then it just suddenly stopped working.

Welcome... Centerville, Ohio or Centerville, Utah...?

"I use the emergency brake at Redline to slip it into neutral and pull the emergency brake on because I have a bad leg. Then it just suddenly stopped working" You apply the EPB at "redline"...?

I understand the bad leg part of the equation, but I am not sure the electronic parking brake was designed or intended for regular use in this manner. For most users it gets applied after the transmission is in "park" and the pawl is engaged inside of the transmission as a back-up.
