    While waiting for my bike during the 3K service, my dealer told me they received a brake failure warning after trying to "fix" my hand brake. I suggested they completely release the parking brake. They did, and the warning went away.

    I once had my parking brake engaged but not enough to stop the bike from moving. When I put it in gear and started moving, the brake failure warning came on. I hit the parking brake to completely release it and the warning went away. But I don't know if that fits your scenerio.
    Happy Owner
    Chances are the referenced post is positive in nature, may result in a solution, alteration, modification, or highlights an extraordinary event or ride, that's worth posting.

    You should have had a message that your parking brake was engaged before you had brake failure warning.
