EPB lost communications - Resolved

Discovery 3 . Handbrake not working at all.. No communication with diagnostics all other modules showing lost communications with epb module.
After much searching I found an earth splice, corroded so badly that both earths from the epb module had rotted off, in the loom just to left of the epb as viewed from the rear.

Can someone please explain where this is in the harness? Such as spare wheel space 50mm from box section etc.

Thanks
Rich

Hi Rich, The break was in the +12v cable (green/yellow) where it splits from a single to the two +12v cables (both green/yellow) to the handbrake unit.
This splice is on the passenger side by the rear wheel. I followed the g/y wired back from the handbrake unit pulling them out of the plastic sheathing. It was tricky to reach and I used the low temp solder / heat shrink connectors.
Hope that helps.
Regards Jim

Hi

Think I may have the same problem but can’t locate the join.

Is it the one that sits behind the suspension strut but above the cross member making it a real pain to get to?
