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. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
C1425 When IG1 terminal voltage is between 9.5 and 17.4 V, an open in the stop light switch input line continues for 3 seconds or more.

  • Wire harness or connector

  • Stop light switch assembly

  • Skid control ECU (Brake actuator assembly)
