ELECTRONIC CONTROLLED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM Stop Light Switch Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The purpose of this circuit is to prevent the engine from stalling while driving in lock-up condition when brakes are suddenly applied.

When the brake pedal is depressed, this switch sends a signal to the TCM. Then the TCM cancels the operation of the lock-up clutch while braking is in progress.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE


  1. READ VALUE USING DATA LIST (STP SIGNAL)


    1. DATA LIST

      Tech Tips

      Using the Intelligent Tester Data List allows switch, sensor, actuator and other item values to be read without removing any parts. Reading the Data List early in troubleshooting is one way to shorten labor time.


      1. Turn the ignition switch off.

      2. Connect the Intelligent Tester to the DLC3.

      3. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

      4. Turn on the tester.

      5. Select the item "Enter / Power train / ECT / Data List".

      6. Follow the instructions on the tester and read the Data List.

  2. INSPECT STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY


    1. A01BF15E05

      Remove the stop light switch assembly.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Resistance
      Switch position Tester Condition Specified Condition
      Switch pin free 1 - 2 Below 1 Ω
      Switch pin pushed in ↑ 10 kΩ or higher
      Switch pin free 3 - 4 10 kΩ or higher
      Switch pin pushed in ↑ Below 1 Ω

    NG

    REPLACE STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY

    OK

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY - TCM)


    1. A01BBRJE02

      Install the stop light switch assembly.

    2. Disconnect the TCM connector.

    3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below when the brake pedal is depressed and released.

      Voltage
      Condition Tester Condition Specified Condition
      Brake pedal is depressed O3-14 (STP) - Body ground 10 to 14 V
      Brake pedal is released ↑ Below 1 V
