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) detects the brake operating conditions through a signal transmitted by the stop light switch.

The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) has an open detection circuit, which outputs this DTC when detecting an open in the stop light input line or the ground line of the stop light circuit with the stop light switch off (brake pedal not depressed).

DTC No.
