Possible to disable parking brake warning

I have a problem with one of my electric parking brake calipers or the connection to it. This causes a maddening buzzer to go off every time I move off from stationery and obscure my DIS. This is out of all proportion to the extent of the problem. Is there a way that I can disable it until I get the caliper fixed, either disable the buzzer and warning lights, or the buzzer only? I do have VCDS.

Thanks.

Nope! Did I say Nope? Sorry, I mean No! Been there, done that and your only option is to Not Drive it or Live with it until you Fix It! Go to AudiUSAparts.com and order it. They will save you money in the Long Run and you can Install it yourself if you are a Wrencher. It's fairly straight forward and simple. Good luck and laters,
