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 ECM. Then the ECM cancels the operation of the lock-up clutch while braking is in progress.

READ VALUE USING DATA LIST (STP SIGNAL)
DATA LIST
Tech Tips
Using the intelligent tester to read the Data List allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the Data List information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.
Turn the ignition switch off.
Connect the Intelligent Tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
Turn on the tester.
Select the item "Enter / Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List".
Follow the instructions on the tester and read the Data List.
