ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:C1249/49

DTC Code DTC Name
C1249/49 Open in Stop Light Switch Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) receives the stop light switch assembly signal and detects the brake pedal operation status.

The skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) has an open detection circuit, which stores this DTC if it detects an open in the stop light input line or ground line of the stop light circuit with the stop light switch assembly off (brake pedal not depressed).

DTC No.
