Electric parking brake

The warning lights keep coming up on my car?
Had them checked and codes cleared but back on again?
Would a new battery resolve this issue?

Possibly. Load test yours or buy one, charge it fully, and see. But be prepared that the fault may be mechanical as commonly no-one does any maintenance at all on the EPB items.

Even easier (and free) test/inspect/calibrate the EPB to see if it's applying/releasing properly. Might save you a set of brake pads too.

I was having a similar problem. Recently had a battery problem, so put a new battery on and not had an EPB problem since so it sounds like JagV8's advice may be good.
