Me again, since I got my 2010 TDV8 Vogue facelift version, the parking brake light has been illuminated. The parking brake doesn't work. the seller told me the parking brake module is missing. The only reference I can see to the parking brake module is a complete unit that has cables going to each of the rear heels and it needs half the car to be removed to get to it. Personally I can't see that someone would remove it completely the replace all the bist without fitting another module. Is there another ECU somewhere that controls this, and if there is, is it connected to the MOST fibre circuit? If so that may explain why the info system and radio won't work

It might have been removed to try and fix it (the motor with the cables) it all comes out in one piece, if i recall

If so it makes me wonder how it got a new MoT the week before I bought it!

Range rover refer to the box with all the gubbings and cables coming out as "module".

2011 doc attached should be the same.

Lots of bent MOT's in the UK. A mate of mine with a car repair shop used to get MOT's for cars he had in without them ever going near a test station.

Thanks for that, at least it's not affected by the infotainment not working! Presumably if the module is not there at all, the yellow light would stay on the dash?
