C2002 on Ford
Park Brake Control Module Fault
C2002 on Ford vehicles indicates park brake control module fault. Au7o has documented this code across 1 Ford model — most commonly on Expedition. This is a chassis code indicating a fault with the Park Brake (electronic parking brake) control module. On vehicles with an electric parking brake, a dedicated module operates the motors or actuators that apply and release the brake. C2002 sets when that module detects an internal failure, a power/ground problem, or loses the ability to control the system reliably. You may see a parking-brake warning light and the electric park brake may not engage or release normally. Typical repair costs on Ford range from $300 to $1,500, depending on the specific model and root cause.
Common Causes of C2002
- •Internal fault in the electronic parking brake control module
- •Low system voltage or weak battery
- •Corroded or loose power/ground connections to the module
- •Wiring harness damage between module and brake actuators
- •Faulty park brake actuator motor(s)
- •Software/calibration fault requiring a module relearn or update
- •Failed module connector or blown related fuse

Ford Expedition(1 issue)
- Air Suspension Compressor Failure and Rear Sag2003-2017
The 2003-2017 Ford Expedition with optional air suspension (standard on Eddie Bauer, King Ranch, Platinum, and EL/MAX trims) suffers from air suspension compressor failure, air spring leaks, and ride height sensor malfunctions. The compressor, located under the vehicle, is exposed to road debris, salt, and moisture which degrades the motor and valves. When air springs develop leaks, the compressor runs continuously trying to maintain ride height, leading to premature burnout. RepairPal estimates compressor replacement between $666 and $724, though dealer pricing can reach $1,200. NHTSA has received hundreds of complaints regarding air suspension failures. Strutmasters.com notes that 2007-2011 Expedition and Navigator share the same air suspension system and failure patterns. Many owners opt for air-to-coil spring conversion kits as a permanent, lower-cost solution.
