VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL 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 When IG1 terminal voltage is 9.5 V or more, an open in the stop light switch assembly input line continues for 0.3 seconds or more.
  • Wire harness or connector

  • Stop light switch assembly

  • Stop light control relay (STOP LP relay) (w/ Downhill assist control or dynamic radar cruise control)

  • Skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly)
