I've tried several time to repair the EPB module with replacement cables. However I've pretty much discovered that by the time the shoes are allowed to go so far out of adjustment (they should be stripped, cleaned, lubricated, and readjusted every 12 months), then the module is effectively scrap, with damaged strain sensors, and stripped gears.

Best option is to simply replace the module, and code it the the vehicle.
