EPB not releasing from switch

Hi,
My handbrake will not release from the switch, has anyone had this problem. I can engage the brake from the switch, but the only way to get it off is to pull away, and this workers fine. Any Info will be appreciated.

Sounds like a faulty switch or wire. Have you spilt anything in that area recently? Bodsys Brake Bible

Hi Bodsy,
Thanks for the reply, I have not been near any thing, the only thing I have done differently is I have towed a trailer. I can't see that making a difference, but that's all. It was in to steelers last week for new anti roll bar bushes.
Cheers

If they have changed the rear anti roll bar bushes then they might have disturbed the epb cables and trapped them just make sure they are ok.

Thanks Flack,
I will have a look, but I think it was only the front anti roll bar bushes.
