PROCEDURE


  1. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (STOP LIGHT SW)


    1. Turn the ignition switch off

    2. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    3. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    4. Turn the intelligent tester on.

    5. Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRC / Data List.

      ABS/VSC/TRC
      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Stop Light SW Stop light switch/ON or OFF

      ON: Brake pedal depressed

      OFF: Brake pedal released

      		 -

    6. Check that the stop light switch display observed on the intelligent tester changes according to the brake pedal operation.

      OK
      The intelligent tester displays ON or OFF according to brake pedal operation.

    OK

  2. CHECK BRAKE PEDAL AND STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Check the brake pedal height and stop light switch assembly installation Click here.

      OK
      The brake pedal height and stop light switch assembly installation are normal.

    NG

    ADJUST BRAKE PEDAL OR STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY Click here

    OK

  3. RECONFIRM DTC


    1. Clear the DTCs Click here.

    2. Start the engine.

    3. Drive the vehicle at a speed of 40 km/h (25 mph) or more and perform a braking test (decelerate the vehicle by depressing the brake pedal).

    4. Check if the same DTC is output Click here.
