СИСТЕМА ECD, Diagnostic DTC:P0504

DTC Code DTC Name
P0504 Brake Switch "A" / "B" Correlation

DESCRIPTION

The stop light switch is a duplex system that transmits two signals: STP and ST1-. These two signals are used by the ECM to monitor whether or not the brake system is working properly. If the signals, which indicate that the brake pedal is being depressed and released, are detected simultaneously, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the stop light switch and stores the DTC.

Tech Tips

The normal signal conditions are as shown in the table below.

Signal (ECM Terminal) Brake Pedal Released In Transition Brake Pedal Depressed
STP OFF ON ON
ST1- ON ON OFF
P0504
DTC Detection Drive Pattern DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
Depress and release brake pedal with ignition switch to ON

Conditions (a), (b) and (c) continue for 0.5 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic):

(a) Ignition switch to ON.

(b) Brake pedal is released.

(c) The STP signal is off when the ST1- signal is off, or the STP signal is on when the ST1- signal is on.


  • Open or short in stop light switch signal circuit

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note


  • Inspect the fuses of circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

  • After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration Click here and initialization Click here.

Tech Tips

Read freeze frame data using the GTS. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY (TERMINAL VOLTAGE)
