Why does that matter? Push the button and walk away. Yes, the electric motor makes noise - it does in cars too.

Mechanical parking brakes make noise too - just a different noise. Mine makes a click - click - click as the lever passes each ratchet and then a loud pop when I release the parking brake and the pedal pops back up.
