METHOD OF CONTROLLING A BRAKING SYSTEM AND RELATED BRAKING SYSTEM

Abstract: a method of controlling a braking system of a vehicle for deactivating a parking-braking force actuated by the braking system is provided. the method involves actuating, by an electronic processing unit, a first actuator of a first brake caliper so as to release a first braking force and reduce a value of the first braking force, detecting the value of the first braking force during actuation of the first actuator by detection means, in the instant in which it is detected that the first braking force is reduced to a value substantially equal to zero, stopping the first actuator and actuating a second actuator of a second brake caliper, by the electronic processing unit, so as to release a second braking force and reduce a value of the second braking force, and reducing the value of the second braking force to a value substantially equal to zero.
