the"Intellipark Valve Module," an electronically controlled parking brake system not too dissimilar from what road vehicles use today. It's just adapted to work with the air brake system of these large trucks and designed to monitor things like when the driver's door is open, a seat belt isn't clicked in, and anything else that shows that the driver isn't ready to drive away.
The issue is that the module Bendix sent to Tesla may allow excessive internal leakage and the parking brake won't engage. Since there isn't anything holding the truck still, it might roll away when the service brake—the brake operated by the driver's foot—is released. Fortunately, there is an indicator that shows when the parking brake isn't engaged, an LED beside the switch on the console will not light up.
