DESCRIPTION
The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) is connected to the combination meter via CAN communication.
If any of the following is detected, the brake warning light remains on:
The skid control ECU connector is disconnected from the skid control ECU.
The brake fluid level is insufficient.
The parking brake is applied.
EBD operation is not possible.
The voltage at terminal IG1 is high.
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
When replacing the brake actuator assembly, perform calibration (Click here).
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (PARKING BRAKE SW)
Turn the ignition switch off.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the tester on.
Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRC / Data List.
According to the display on the tester, read the Data List.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item/Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Parking Brake SW | Parking brake switch / ON or OFF | ON: Parking brake applied OFF: Parking brake released |
- |
Using the intelligent tester, check the input of the switch operation when the parking brake pedal is operated.
| OK |
|---|
| When the parking brake is operated, the display changes as shown above. |
INSPECT BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER RESERVOIR SUB-ASSEMBLY (BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WARNING SWITCH)
Remove the reservoir tank cap and strainer.
Disconnect the brake fluid level warning switch connector.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
A float is placed inside the reservoir. Its position can be changed by increasing or decreasing the brake fluid level.
| Standard Resistance | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
