ECD SYSTEM(for DPF), Diagnostic DTC:P0504

DTC Code DTC Name
P0504 Brake Switch "A" / "B" Correlation

DESCRIPTION

The stop light switch assembly is a duplex system that transmits two signals: STP and ST1-. These two signals are used by the ECM to monitor whether or not the brake system is working properly. If the signals, which indicate that the brake pedal is being depressed and released, are detected simultaneously, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the stop light switch assembly and stores the DTC.

Tech Tips

The normal conditions are as shown in the table below.

Signals (ECM Terminal) Brake Pedal Released In Transition Brake Pedal Depressed
STP OFF ON ON
ST1- ON ON OFF
DTC No. Detection Item DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area MIL Memory
P0504 Brake Switch "A" / "B" Correlation

Conditions (a), (b) and (c) continue for 0.5 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic):

(a) Ignition switch ON.

(b) Brake pedal is released.

(c) The STP signal is off when the ST1- signal is off, or the STP signal is on when the ST1- signal is on.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note


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

  • After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration (Click here ) and initialization Click here.

Tech Tips


  • Read freeze frame data using the GTS. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

  • Stop light switch conditions can be checked using the GTS.


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Stop Light Switch.

    5. Check Stop Light Switch when the brake pedal is depressed and released.

Brake Pedal Operation Specified Condition
Depressed ON
Released OFF
