| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| C1430 | Brake Pedal Load Sensing Switch OFF Stuck Malfunction |
| C1431 | Brake Pedal Load Sensing Switch ON Stuck Malfunction |
DESCRIPTION
The brake pedal load sensing switch is turned on when the brake pedal is depressed with force exceeding a predetermined level.
The skid control ECU detects if the brake pedal is depressed or not via this circuit.
| DTC Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
When replacing the brake actuator assembly, perform zero point calibration (Click here).
When C1425 and/or C1426 is output together with C1430 and/or C1431, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by C1425 and/or C1426 first (Click here, orClick here).
PROCEDURE
READ VALUE ON INTELLIGENT TESTER (STOP LIGHT SWITCH AND BRAKE PEDAL LOAD SENSING SWITCH)
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch on (IG).
Select the Data List mode on the intelligent tester (Click here).
| Tester Display | Measurement Item/Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stop Lamp SW | Stop light switch / ON or OFF | ON: Brake pedal depressed OFF: Brake pedal released |
- |
| Brake Pedal Load Sensing SW | Brake pedal load sensing switch / ON or OFF | ON: Brake pedal depressed beyond the specified point OFF: Brake pedal not depressed beyond the specified point |
- |
Check that the stop light switch display and brake pedal load sensing switch display observed on the intelligent tester change according to brake pedal operation.
| OK |
|---|
| The intelligent tester displays ON or OFF according to brake pedal operation. |
Slowly depress the brake pedal, and check when the stop light switch and brake pedal load sensing switch turn ON.
| OK |
|---|
| First the stop light switch should turn ON, and then the brake pedal load sensing switch should turn ON. |

INSPECT BRAKE PEDAL LOAD SENSING SWITCH
Do not remove the brake pedal load sensing switch from the brake pedal sub-assembly.
When there is a malfunction in the brake pedal load sensing switch, replace the brake pedal sub-assembly.
Turn the ignition switch off.
Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.
Disconnect the brake pedal load sensing switch connector.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
| Standard resistance | |||||||||

CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SKID CONTROL ECU - BRAKE PEDAL LOAD SENSING SWITCH)
Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.
Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

CHECK BRAKE PEDAL AND STOP LIGHT SWITCH INSTALLATION
Turn the ignition switch off.
Check the brake pedal height and stop light switch installation (Click here).
| OK |
|---|
| The brake pedal height and stop light switch installation are normal. |
