When found in VW Passat (3C): Parking Brake: Clear Fault Codes with Engine running (to ensure proper Voltage Supply). When checking Voltage with this Fault Code stored, the Module may not output Power to the Motor. Try clearing Fault Codes and Operating the EPB as mentioned below before testing again.
Ive got a b5 and my dad has a b6(07 passat variant), but he's having problems with his e-brake. it would never engage and always gave a parking brake fault. so he took it in today for regular service, they said that its not the switch but they said they cant fix it without replacing some board, which happens to cost $1000 just in parts
The light on the dash was on and the brake would have trouble engaging or disengaging (working intermittently). Through research I found two of the highest possibilities: 1. Parking brake switch failure. 2. Brake control module. I ordered a new parking brake switch for $15, replaced and all works fine again. orivers66.
