United Kingdom 2008 Discovery 3 TDV6 Base 5 Seat Manual Aintree GreenDiscovery 3
EPB problem

I have a 2008 Discovery 3 which apart from the three amigos has given me no problems for five years, until now.
I had the screeching EPB problem and brake jammed on. I pulled the emergency release, stripped out the rear brake system, fitted new gears in acuator and all new cables, shoes calipers and pads. Reset the DCT codes. The acuator made a different screeching sound and didn't apply brake. The DCT registered 'Emergency release had been pulled', yet it had not and the latch in the acuator between the two cables was still connected..
I have had the acuator working correctly, out of the vehicle by attaching the motor direct to a battery.
How does the DCT know the emergency release has been pulled, is there a sensor somewhere?
Is there any way of testing the electrical side of the EPB within the vehicle?
Any ideas?
