VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:C1430, C1431

DTC Code DTC Name
C1430 Brake Pedal Load Sensing Switch OFF Stuck Malfunction
C1431 Brake Pedal Load Sensing Switch ON Stuck Malfunction

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
C1430 Brake Pedal Load Sensing Switch OFF Stuck Malfunction

Either of the following is detected:


  1. With the stop light switch assembly on, the brake pedal load sensing switch off, and the master cylinder pressure 6 Mpa (61.2 kgf/cm2, 870 psi) or more, the deceleration is 0.4 G or more for 1 second or more.

  2. With the stop light switch assembly on, the brake pedal load sensing switch off, and the master cylinder pressure 6 Mpa (61.2 kgf/cm2, 870 psi) or more, the vehicle speed is 0 km/h (0 mph) for 5 seconds or more.

C1431 Brake Pedal Load Sensing Switch ON Stuck Malfunction

Either of the following is detected:


  1. Immediately after the engine switch is turned on (IG), the brake pedal load sensing switch is on and the stop light switch assembly is off for 10 seconds or more.

  2. The condition that the brake pedal load sensing switch remains on while the vehicle speed increases from 0 km/h (0 mph) to 30 km/h (19 mph) occurs 5 times in succession.

PROCEDURE


  1. READ VALUE USING GTS (STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY AND BRAKE PEDAL LOAD SENSING SWITCH)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    3. Select the Data List using the GTS.

    4. Check that the stop light switch display and brake pedal load sensing switch display observed on the GTS change according to brake pedal operation.

      OK
      The GTS displays ON or OFF according to brake pedal operation.
    5. Slowly depress the brake pedal, and check when the stop light switch assembly and brake pedal load sensing switch turn on.

      OK
      First the stop light switch assembly should turn on, and then the brake pedal load sensing switch should turn on.

    3. Turn the engine switch off.

    4. Start the engine.

    5. Perform a road test.

    6. Check if the same DTC is output.

  3. INSPECT BRAKE PEDAL SUPPORT ASSEMBLY


    1. B006OTAC01
      *a

      Component without harness connected

      (Brake Pedal Load Sensing Switch (Brake Pedal Support Assembly))

      Turn the engine switch off.

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

    3. Disconnect the A32 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.

    4. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      2 (FSW+) - 1 (FSW-) Brake pedal load sensing switch off (Brake pedal depressed) 950 to 1050 Ω
      2 (FSW+) - 1 (FSW-) Brake pedal load sensing switch on (Brake pedal released) 203 to 223 Ω

  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY - BRAKE PEDAL SUPPORT ASSEMBLY)


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

    2. Disconnect the A50 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A50-23 (FSW+) - A32-2 (FSW+) Always Below 1 Ω
