Ford Explorer: Parking Brake and Actuation / Description and Operation - Parking Brake - Overview

The
parking brake system uses 2 switch activated, Electronic Control Unit

The ABS module controls and
monitors the parking brake system and sets Diagnostic Trouble Codes
(DTCs) when a fault is present in the system. The IPC
illuminates the parking brake warning indicator and displays a message
in the message center when a fault is present and when the parking
brakes are applied and released.
