*Long read warning*
Recently took my 19 CTR to a local (reputable) speed shop to complete a third party tech-inspection that PCA requires for HPDE participants. While I had that being done, I also had them go ahead put new pads in front and rear. The car was put into maintenance mode, pads changed, and then brought back out of maintenance mode. Ever since, the issue is that the car seems to think the E-brake is engaged when it isn't, and it's constantly saying that there's an, "ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM," and will tell you to release the parking brake over and over if you drive the car in the current state.
So far, the shop has tried a number of things, including taking the car to Honda to use their scan tool to "recalibrate" the E-brake - didn't work. They've replaced the actuators - didn't work. They purchased the Autel scan tool some other threads with similar issues have referenced and tried that route - didn't work. The most recent move was to take it back to Honda again and I'm currently waiting to hear how that goes.
In in the interim... any thoughts/suggestions? Anyone had this issue and been able to resolve it? I've read a few threads that sounded similar - one owner seemed to have it randomly go away, and the other suggested making sure the black and white wires were reconnected properly.
TLDR - Changed brake pads, getting e-brake error now. Tears.
