    Parking light stays on, and warning about it may roll?

    My parking brake on my 2009 X5 is acting up. Parking light stays on, and warning about it may roll? The switch was working fine, just did this today. What do I need to check, Switch, fuse maybe?

    Sounds like your EMF ( electric parking brake ) has a problem. Are you able to pull any codes?

    No, not showing anything except the parking symbol. I pushed the switch on the mileage reset and held it for at least 5 seconds.

    You'll need to have someone with the proper diagnostic equipment pull the diagnostic codes. There's not a way for you to check them.

    Is there a way I can reset it? I pulled the manual cable in the boot to make sure they are not holding the car back.
