Abstract
An electric brake system with a parking function is configured to actuate an electric motor when there exists a request to apply a parking brake. With the motor being actuated, the electric brake system moves a locking pin from an unlocking position to a parking/locking position. The electric brake system is further configured to prohibit the actuation of the electric motor even if the brake pedal is operated while the vehicle is at a stop and when the parking brake operation has stopped.
