BRAKE CONTROL: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: C1249/49: Open in Stop Light Switch Circuit

DTC C1249/49 - Open in Stop Light Switch Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU inputs the stop light switch signal and detects the status of the brake operation.
The skid control ECU has an open detection circuit. If an open in the stop light switch input line or GND side stop light circuit is detected when the stop light switch is off, this DTC is output.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTE: When replacing the ABS and TRACTION actuator assembly, perform zero point calibration (Programming and Relearning).

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK STOP LIGHT SWITCH OPERATION
(a) Check that the stop light comes on when the brake pedal is depressed and goes off when the brake pedal is released.
OK:
Stop light switch function is normal.

HINT: Check the stop light bulb as it may have burnt out.

NG -- INSPECT STOP LIGHT SWITCH
OK -- Continue to next step.
2. INSPECT SKID CONTROL ECU (STP TERMINAL)

(a) Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.
(b) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage:

NG -- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STOP LIGHT SWITCH - SKID CONTROL ECU)
OK -- REPLACE ABS AND TRACTION ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY
3. INSPECT STOP LIGHT SWITCH

(a) Disconnect the stop light switch connector.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance:

NG -- REPLACE STOP LIGHT SWITCH
OK -- Continue to next step.
4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STOP LIGHT SWITCH - SKID CONTROL ECU)

(a) Disconnect the stop light switch connector and skid control ECU connector.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance:

NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- REPLACE ABS AND TRACTION ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY
