| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| P0724 | Brake Switch "B" Circuit High |
DESCRIPTION
This DTC indicates that the stop light switch assembly remains ON. When the stop light switch assembly remains ON during GO and STOP driving, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the stop light switch assembly. Then the MIL illuminates and the ECM stores the DTC.
