Circuit/System Description
The parking brake control module has an internal motor, apply actuator, release actuator, and temperature sensor. The handbrake control module also contains the logic for applying and releasing the handbrake when commanded by the handbrake control switch. When the parking brake control module receives a signal from the switch the internal circuit board temperature is checked to verify it is within operating range before the control module performs the requested operation.
