Reset the EPB module

1 switch off the ignition
2 Disconnect the battery for 30 secs
3 Reconnect the battery

4 Start the engine
5 Firmly apply the footbrake 5 times
6 Confirm the message "NOT CALIBRATED"or "APPLY FOOT AND PARK BRAKE" is displayed in the message centre this indicated that park brake is in calibration mode.
7 Lightly press the foot brake pedal
8 Apply the parkbrake by using the EPB button
9 release the EPB
10 release the footbrake pedal
11 confirm that the message "NOT CALIBRATED"or "APPLY FOOT AND PARK BRAKE" is not in message centre
12 apply and release the EPB 5 times to ensure that no error is present
