FastCheck
The operator will be asked to perform a number of actions before applying the EPB.
The OmiCheck reads and displays the EPB pressure. With the EPB applied the EPB
pressure should be approximately 1100 Newtons.
The operator will then be prompted to pull manually on the emergency release. The
OmiCheck reads and displays the EPB pressure. With the emergency release
activated the EPB pressure should be 0 Newton and the vehicle should be able to
move freely.
If either of the above tests fail then the EPB assembly should be inspected and
repaired as described by the manufacturer’s instructions.

Enter Maintenance Mode
This function is used to put the system into a state that enables work to be carried out
by the technician.
The Control Module puts the calipers into a state where normal operation is inhibited
and the callipers can not be closed by any means.This function must be used if
replacement of the brakes, discs or brake pads is to be carried out.
Pre-Test conditions:
• The vehicle must be stationary
• The vehicle must be on level ground
• The vehicle must be secured with wheel locks
This function takes 30 seconds to complete.
NOTE: After this function has been performed the EPB calipers can not be closed and
are inhibited until exit maintenance mode is run. Cycling the ignition, disconnecting
the battery or diagnostics tester does not exit maintenance mode.
Ensure the on screen instructions on the service tool are followed precisely and in the
correct order.
Exit Maintenance Mode
This function is used to put the system back into an operational state after work has
been carried out by the technician. Calipers are closed to the applied position, and
normal operation is available again.
