Roger that! I'm experiencing the same problem precisely. Completely stumped. I have no failures turned on at all. As soon as I've touched down and employed reverse thrusters and get to 80 kts, I disengage the Autobrakes and apply slight pressure on the brakes and they're not responding at all? I guess we'll see if PMDG pick up on this little beaut. I admittedly haven't applied the update as yet as I've read some users have experienced adverse effects so I'm a little hesitant to install it (thinking that perhaps the update might address this issue)?!

Hi, make sure you have the carbon brakes.I stop the reverse at 60 kts and 2 clicks on the trigger of my joystick to disengage the auto brakes.Another thing, look at the temperature of your brakes.The hotter they are the weaker they become.If you take off again and you retract the landing gear, a fire alarm will ring in the wheel well due to the heat!!!

if service based failures are enabled, it sounds like the brakes have overheated, therefore they will not work, check the failures section of the FMC when this happens, it happens to me every now and again (very cool i think)

I'm having the same issue now. Worked perfectly for weeks, and last night on my second flight (first one was flawless), the brakes failed after touchdown. And they still do so today. Same a/c, nothing changed, no failures active, no overheating. To me it does not look like the actual brakes don't work, but rather that FSX can't apply the brakes any more. If this were due to an a/c malfunction of any kind (like service based failures), shouldn't the BRAKE message appear on the bottom left of the screen nevertheless when I pull the trigger or press the dot key? At least it does so when the autobrakes kick-in.

I've had this problem since the start aswell . This has been happening with steel and carbon sets with failures disabled .I thought i'd fixed the problem by re-calibrating my X52 PRO , i went a good 20 flights with no issues .Then last night flying into EDI bang !!! , with carbon brakes , disengaged reversers at 60kts applied manual braking and nothing ! . Checked the brake temps 0.0 were showing .I've had this issue with the original day 1 version and the subsequent hotfixes . *EDIT* Just landed at EGBB and everything was fine :S

Have you tried serviceing the brakes in the failures section? Or does this not work if SB failures are off?
