ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:C1425

DTC Code DTC Name
C1425 Open in Stop Switch Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) detects the brake operating conditions through a signal transmitted by the stop light switch assembly.

The skid control ECU incorporates a circuit to detect an open circuit. This DTC is output when an open circuit is detected in the stop light signal input line.

DTC No. Detection Item INF Code DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area Note
C1425 Open in Stop Switch Circuit 231 An open stop light switch circuit continues for 10 seconds or more.
  • Wire harness or connector (refer to "Open Detection Area")

  • Stop light switch assembly

  6. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STP TERMINAL)


    1. Turn the power switch off.

    2. Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.

      OK
      The connector is securely connected.
    3. Disconnect the A41 skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) connector.

    4. Check both the connector case and the terminals for deformation and corrosion.

      OK
      No deformation or corrosion.
    5. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
