What do you feel? When you turn off the car or pull the parking brake button, you hear a metallic “grinding” noise that is longer than normal, or a dry click. The message “Parking Brake Failure” appears on the dashboard and the yellow warning light flashes. The brake may become locked, preventing the car from moving.
The Logic of the System: In more modern Citroën models (such as the C4 Lounge and C5), there is no physical lever. An electric motor pulls the cables or presses the rear calipers. The code C1555 indicates that this motor attempted to move, but encountered very high mechanical resistance or was unable to complete its travel.
- Possible Solution: Most of the time, the problem isn’t the electric motor, but rather the… worn rear brake pads Or the steel cable may have frayed and become stuck in the conduit. When the brake pad becomes too thin, the motor needs to “spin” more than programmed to reach the disc, generating the error. Check the condition of the brake pads and lubricate the cables.. Tip: If the car is locked, there is an emergency release lever (usually hidden under the center console or under the seat) that allows you to release the brake manually.
