Default Parking Brake Fault & suspension noise

My 2005 LR3 is tripping a parking brake fault whenever I slow down or come to a stop. Anyone else have this issue??

Also everytime I go over a small pothole or bump in the road I hear a hollow sound (thud) from the front rignt suspension, maybe a ball joint. The dealer said it was a strut, but I don't know.

Thanks

EG

Mine is on all the time. Plus, I font think the parking brake works, either. Also I have a hdc fault, so is there a chance that the problem is related?

I had the same fault massages before. Check your battery. I had mine changed and all the fault massages went away. My gear even locked up when i started my car before I had the battery changed.

Default parking brake and HDC faults

OK - I had the entire module replaced last week at an independent shop. My lights went away, except for the amber "brake" light and my mechanic told me that I would have to take it to the dealer for programming and to clear the codes. I took it to the dealership and spent 5 hours and didn't get anywhere. Everything checked out fine and they told me I'd have to bring it back in and leave it for a day so they could take the seats out and check wiring.
