Look for grounding problem with ebrake. Check under hood for good bond from (-) battery to chassis. You'll need to open console. Moved your post from the ECU manual reference post.

If ground from battery to frame and or block is messed up, the system will push amps through the ebrake cable, and it will get hot. The last thing any Rover owner wants is an electrical fire, unless full coverage insurance is paid up....
