06 Passat rear parking brake problems

[MBounds@SOWO]

Long story short I had trouble installing new rear brake pads. Now I have a flashing parking brake light that beeps at me. Here is the scan:

I know this sounds dumb but check you fuse. It's #5 on the drivers side.

I will check that tonight. That would be AWESOME if it was something that simple.

This may (or may not) help. It's from a TSB found in the B6 forum.

Good luck...

Alright guys I didn't see any blown fuses and the TSB didn't work. Here are the new codes. I am going nuts trying to figure this out and don't want to take it the dealer to get raped.

OK, found you a better one - the DTC and your controller part number both are shown in this TSB. I think this is your answer - but probably not what you wanted to hear as it involves the dealer. Maybe you're still under warranty...

Never had a TSB done before. If I am out of warranty will I be charged for this service?

The procedure is a update for the Parking brake module.
TSB stands for Technical Service Bulletin and there are a LOT of them.

Since the vehicle is out of warranty, then yes you should be charged for it.
If you are within 12,000 miles and 1 year from the expiration of the W2 / bumper to bumper warranty, then go to the dealer you bought it from and ask for Goodwill.

Most dealers will work with you and honor the Goodwill. If you go to a dealer you did not purchase the vehicle from and never get any service from, they may not.

Working with a friend of mine at the dealership to try and get "goodwill". Thank you for the help.
