WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Lexus ES 300h. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- CHECK STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION
- Check the protrusion of the rod. Refer to INSTALLATION [08/2013 - ]
.
OK
Stop light switch assembly is installed properly.
HINT:
If the stop light switch assembly is not installed properly, adjust the protrusion of the rod before proceeding to the next step.
NG → See step 8
OK: Go to next step
- Check the protrusion of the rod. Refer to INSTALLATION [08/2013 - ]
.
- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (REGULATOR PRESSURE SENSOR)
- Mount a pedal effort gauge and install LSPV gauges to the rear wheels. Refer to ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION [08/2013 - ] .
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the power switch on (IG).
- Select the Data List on the Techstream. Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [08/2013 - ]
