Handbrake error code

Hi All

I scanned my Z for errors yesterday and it came up clear except for two things, 6570 and D396 (under the "Parking brake" section in Bimmerlink), which I tried to clear but it refused. Any idea what they mean? and yes I did Google it 8)

For reference, I finally got my Z flashed with a stage 2 tune yesterday, after a weeks struggle (initially the guy tried flashing via OBD which ended up not working no matter what we tried and we then took the ECU to a shop to directly flash it which worked). Not sure if this would have anything to do with it, but it sure does pull nicely now :D

As for the handbrake ... it works ... push the button and it releases, pull the button and it engages (with a squeal though, but I'm assuming that's what they sound like), so not sure how to diagnose this any further 🤷‍♂️
 
Most likely a partly corrupted EMF ECU..needs a re-flash..best guess..

On E89 N20 engines you can only flash the ECU with jumpers on the DME
