CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P0571

DTC Code DTC Name
P0571 Stop Light Switch Circuit Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

When the brake pedal is depressed, the stop light switch sends a signal to the ECM. Upon receiving the signal, the ECM cancels cruise control. Even if there is a malfunction in the stop light signal circuit while cruise control is in operation, normal driving is maintained due to a fail-safe function.

When the brake pedal is depressed, positive voltage is applied to terminal STP of the ECM through the STOP fuse and stop light switch, and the ECM cancels cruise control.

DTC DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
P0571 The voltages of terminals ST1- and STP of the ECM are both below 1 V for 0.5 seconds or more.
  • Stop light switch circuit

  • Stop light switch assembly

  • ECM

      Front view of wire harness connector

      (to Stop Light Switch Assembly)

      Disconnect the A38 stop light switch assembly connector.

    2. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A38-2 - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V
      A38-4 - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V
      A38-4 - Body ground Ignition switch off Below 1 V

    NG
    OK
  2. INSPECT STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY


    1. Remove the stop light switch assembly Click here.

    2. Inspect the stop light switch assembly Click here.


    NG
    OK
  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY - ECM)


    1. Disconnect the A38 stop light switch assembly connector.

    2. Disconnect the A58 ECM connector.

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

      Standard Resistance (Check for Open)
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A38-1 - A58-9 (STP) Always Below 1 Ω
      A38-3 - A58-10 (ST1-) Always Below 1 Ω
      Standard Resistance (Check for Short)
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A38-1 - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      A38-3 - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    OK
    NG
