Brian, Welcome!

You'll need to make a post in the welcome/intro page and tell us about your car and yourself. Put your car info in your signature (User CP link)

I'm sure someone will come along soon to answer your question.

Again, welcome to JF.

Easy & cheap/free stuff first: check fuse(s) & relays :)

If you can, it's worth trying the recalibration which I think is in the FAQs.

Next: think hard - could it be your battery (or any of its wiring with bad connection)?
Seriously. The EPB is really really fussy.

Hard stuff: either the module or motor may need replacing. There are threads about these but try not to need to.

Water in the trunk (or boot)?

+1 (I forgot that one!)

Should I just weld my trunk shut?
 

All of these issues with water in the trunk and all of that electronics etc. in such a vulnerable spot? OK maybe just use like 4 tubes of silicone caulk?:icon_shrug:
