DESCRIPTION
The brake pedal load sensing switch (brake pedal support assembly) turns on when the brake pedal is depressed with a force exceeding a predetermined level.
The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) uses this circuit to detect if the brake pedal is depressed or not.
| DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|---|
| C1429 | Open or Short in Brake Pedal Load Sensing Switch | An open or short in the brake pedal load sensing switch circuit continues for 0.3 seconds or more. |

PROCEDURE
READ VALUE USING GTS (BRAKE PEDAL LOAD SENSING SWITCH)
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Select the Data List using the GTS.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item | Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brake Pedal Load Sensing SW | Brake pedal load sensing switch | ON or OFF | ON: Brake pedal depressed beyond a specified point OFF: Brake pedal not depressed beyond a specified point |

INSPECT BRAKE PEDAL SUPPORT ASSEMBLY
| *a | Component without harness connected (Brake Pedal Load Sensing Switch (Brake Pedal Support Assembly)) |
Turn the engine switch off.
Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.
Disconnect the A55 brake pedal load sensing switch (brake pedal support assembly) connector.
Note
Do not remove the brake pedal load sensing switch from the brake pedal support assembly.
When there is a malfunction in the brake pedal load sensing switch, replace the brake pedal support assembly.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
