There is a small cover directly behind the park brake switch, prise the cover off and have a look for a loop of wire. Once you see it, hook it with something, your spares kit in boot should have a hook of sorts, YANK IT HARD - you really do have to give it a hard pull and it will release! Then try to avoid applying it until you can get it checked over. Best of luck mate

Unscrew the park brake release switch and under there there is a small wire loop. You'll have to fish around for it. Give it a good pull with something hard (it will hurt your fingers if you don't use a tool of some sort) and it should release 2014 D4 XS
