Good to hear you got it fixed, I will suggest this to the service desk so they can fix mine as my is waiting for a replacement low pressure aircon pipe that has been rubbing on the engine cover. Thanks for the info.

Had the same fault, I'm listed on this thread from last year, came on a few more times, eventually asked the dealers and a new brake control unit was fitted and fingers crossed not come on again and that was in march! Think it is abut of a known problem?!?! Hope this helps???

I had exactly the same problem with my Qashqai and it is taking the service center a very long time to sort it out. with frequent visit to the service center. They say it needs a new Handbrake control unit but they dont seem to be able to order the right one.

Mine continued to fault the same, in the end I had a new parking brake ecu, that was 12 months ago no faults since! The ecu was made by TRW. If that helps??

I've just had this happen this afternoon, my 17 plate has to go in next week. Nissan say it is a fault in the handbrake unit? I was told the handbrake is working but there is a fault. If it's driveable then use it, but if not, then don't.
