    OK

  7. READ VALUE USING GTS (PARKING BRAKE SWITCH ASSEMBLY)


    1. Reconnect the A24 skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) connector.

    2. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    3. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    4. Select the Data List on the GTS Click here.

      ABS/VSC/TRC
      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Parking Brake SW Parking brake switch assembly / ON or OFF

      ON: Parking brake applied

      OFF: Parking brake released

      		 -

    5. Using the GTS, check if the switch condition on the GTS changes according to parking brake operation.

      OK
      The GTS displays ON or OFF according to parking brake operation.

    NG

    INSPECT PARKING BRAKE SWITCH ASSEMBLY Click here

    OK

  8. INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY


    1. Turn the power switch off.

    2. Perform the Active Test of the combination meter assembly (meter CPU) using the GTS Click here.

    3. Check the combination meter assembly.

      OK
      The brake warning light / red (malfunction) turns on or off in accordance with GTS operation.
