CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P0571

DTC Code DTC Name
P0571 Brake Switch "A" Circuit

DESCRIPTION

When the brake pedal is depressed, the stop light switch assembly sends a signal to the power management control ECU. When the power management control ECU receives this signal, it cancels control of vehicle speed by the cruise control system. The fail-safe function operates to enable normal driving even if there is a malfunction in the stop light signal circuit. The cancellation condition occurs when voltage is applied to terminal STP. When the brake is applied, voltage is normally applied to terminal STP of the power management control ECU through the STOP fuse and the stop light switch assembly, and the power management control ECU turns the cruise control system off.

Note

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

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT)


    1. Disconnect the A124 stop light switch assembly connector.

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

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A124-7 (B) - A124-2 (GND) Power switch off 11 to 14 V
      A124-6 (B) - A124-2 (GND) Power switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A124-2 (GND) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      Result
      Proceed to
      OK
      NG
    4. Reconnect the A124 stop light switch assembly connector.

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (POWER MANAGEMENT CONTROL ECU - STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY)


    1. Disconnect the A130 power management control ECU connector.

    2. Disconnect the A124 stop light switch assembly connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance (Check for Open)
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A130-23 (STP) - A124-3 (L) Always Below 1 Ω
      A130-7 (ST1-) - A124-5 (L) Always Below 1 Ω
      Standard Resistance (Check for Short)
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A130-23 (STP) or A124-3 (L) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      A130-7 (ST1-) or A124-5 (L) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
    4. Reconnect the A124 stop light switch assembly connector.

    5. Reconnect the A130 power management control ECU connector.
