CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P0571

DTC Code DTC Name
P0571 Brake Switch "A" Circuit

DESCRIPTION

When the brake pedal is depressed, the stop light switch assembly sends a signal to the power management control ECU. When the power management control ECU receives this signal, it cancels the cruise control. The fail-safe function operates to enable normal driving even if there is a malfunction in the stop light switch signal circuit. Cruise control cancellation occurs when voltage is applied to terminal STP. When the brake is applied, voltage is normally applied to terminal STP of the power management control ECU through the STOP fuse and the stop light switch assembly, and the power management control ECU turns the cruise control off.

DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
P0571 Voltage of STP signal and that of ST1- signal of power management control ECU are less than 1 V for 0.5 seconds or more
  • Stop light switch assembly

  • Stop light switch circuit

  • Power management control ECU

      Component with harness connected

      (Stop Light Switch Assembly)

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

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      A108-2 (L) - A108-3 (GND) Power switch off, brake pedal not depressed Below 1 V
      Power switch off, brake pedal depress 11 to 14 V
      A108-4 (L) - A108-3 (GND) Power switch on (IG), brake pedal not depress 11 to 14 V
      Power switch on (IG), brake pedal depress Below 1 V

    NG
    OK
  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (POWER MANAGEMENT CONTROL ECU - STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY)


    1. Disconnect the power management control ECU connector.

    2. Disconnect the stop light switch assembly connector.

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