So the "go to workshop in Germany and fix brakes" light about a month ago. I'm gonna do it myself, but I suffer from procrastination syndrome. I moved into a place yesterday where I'm parked on an incline so I put on the emergency brake. Will the e brake give out if my brakes need replacing?

They are separate systems. The e-brake is a drum brake, and the warning is for the [front?] brake pad.
