Is the LH parking brake actuator good or bad?

The LH parking brake actuator has been replaced. Had the actuator been responsible for the noise e.g. arcing motor brushes, the noise would have been present during parking brake on and off. The circuit between the EPB module and LH actuator is good based on the values compared at both the module and actuator.
