INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Tech Tips
When C1249, C1425 and/or C1426 is output together with C1430 and/or C1431, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by C1249, C1425 and/or C1426 first Click here, Click here, and/or Click here.
PROCEDURE
READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY AND BRAKE PEDAL LOAD SENSING SWITCH)
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Select the Data List using the intelligent tester Click here.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item/Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stop Light SW | Stop light switch / ON or OFF | ON: Brake pedal depressed OFF: Brake pedal released |
- |
| Brake Pedal Load Sensing SW | Brake pedal load sensing switch / ON or OFF | ON: Brake pedal depressed beyond a specified point OFF: Brake pedal not depressed beyond a specified point |
- |
Check that the stop light switch display and brake pedal load sensing switch display observed on the intelligent tester change according to brake pedal operation.
| OK |
|---|
| The intelligent tester displays on or off according to brake pedal operation. |
Slowly depress the brake pedal, and check when the stop light switch and brake pedal load sensing switch turn on.
| OK |
|---|
| First the stop light switch should turn ON, and then the brake pedal load sensing switch should turn ON. |
