VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:C1425

DTC Code DTC Name
C1425 Open in Stop Light Switch Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) receives stop light switch assembly signals and uses them to determine whether or not the brakes are applied.

The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) has a detection circuit that it uses to detect an open in the stop light input line.

If the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) detects an open in this circuit, it will store this DTC.

DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
C1425 An open in the stop light switch assembly input line continues for 3 seconds or more.

  • Wire harness or connector

  • Stop light switch assembly

  • Skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly)

Note


  • When replacing the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly), perform system variant learning and acceleration sensor zero point calibration Click here.

  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK STOP LIGHT OPERATION


    1. Check that the stop lights come on when the brake pedal is depressed, and go off when the brake pedal is released.

      OK
      Condition Illumination Condition
      Brake pedal depressed On
      Brake pedal released Off

    NG

    INSPECT STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY Click here

    OK

  2. READ VALUE USING GTS (STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Select the Data List on the GTS Click here.

      Stop Light SW Stop light switch assembly/ ON or OFF

      ON: Brake pedal depressed

      OFF: Brake pedal released

      		 -

    4. Check that the stop light switch assembly display observed on the GTS changes according to brake pedal operation.

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

    NG

  3. RECONFIRM DTC


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Clear the DTCs Click here.

    3. Turn the ignition switch off.

    4. Start the engine.

    5. Depress the brake pedal several times to test the stop light circuit.

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

      Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.

    3. Disconnect the A78 (for CVT) or A79 (except CVT) skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.

    4. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage (for CVT)
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A78-30 (STP) - Body ground Stop light switch assembly ON (Brake pedal depressed) 11 to 14 V*
      A78-30 (STP) - Body ground Stop light switch assembly OFF (Brake pedal released) Below 1.5 V
      Standard Voltage (except CVT)
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A79-6 (STP) - Body ground Stop light switch assembly ON (Brake pedal depressed) 11 to 14 V*
      A79-6 (STP) - Body ground Stop light switch assembly OFF (Brake pedal released) Below 1.5 V

      Tech Tips

      *: The standard voltage value varies depending on the +BS terminal voltage value. The standard voltage is 85% of the +BS terminal voltage.
