"Parking brake Service Required"/blinking parking light
Hi
I got into my 2008 Volvo S80 2.5T (Auto) today, and when I started the engine, I noticed the red parking light on the dashboard was blinking, instead of being displayed as steady.
When I tried to disengage the handbrake with the lever, whilst in P, nothing happened (usually there is a small noise of the electronic handbrake disengaging).
2 messages are now being displayed on the dashboard:
"Parking brake - Service required"
"Park assist syst - Service required"
The engine starts fine, but the hand brake is locked, so I can't drive/move the car.
Any ideas? Is there anyway to temporarily disengage the handbrake, so I can drive it to a dealer for repair?
