ANTI-LOCK BRAKE 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 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. Detection Item DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
C1425 Open in Stop Light Switch Circuit An open in the stop light switch input line continues for 3 seconds or more.

  • Wire harness or connector

  • Stop light switch assembly

  • Stop light control ECU assembly

  • Skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly)

      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 A120 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.

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

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A120-30 (STP) - Body ground Stop light switch ON (Brake pedal depressed) 11 to 14 V*
      A120-30 (STP) - Body ground Stop light switch 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.
