E-brake off
E-brake on
Disengage foot brake

For virtually zero money, you can use a toggle switch to mimic the e-brake and wire the yellow/black to the foot brake. The sequence would be as follows:

Engage the foot brake
Toggle switch on
Toggle switch off
Toggle switch on
Disengage foot brake

Or, I sell a device that will do all of this automatically and instantly when you turn the Alpine on. It runs $29 shipped.

This works great. I have had the toggle switch set up for 6+ years on my alpine. very easy to install and cheap.
