.ABS/VSC/TRAC
Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note Stop Light SW Stop light switch assembly / ON or OFF ON: Brake pedal depressed
OFF: Brake pedal released- - Check that the stop light switch assembly condition observed on the Techstream changes according to brake pedal operation.
OK
The Techstream displays ON or OFF according to brake pedal operation.
NG → See step 8
OK: Go to next step
- PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (NO. 1 INTEGRATION RELAY)
- Select the Active Test on the Techstream. Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [08/2013 - ]
.ABS/VSC/TRAC
Tester Display Test Part Control Range Diagnostic Note Stop Light Relay No. 1 integration relay Relay ON/OFF Stop lights come on - Perform the Active Test of the No. 1 integration relay (engine room junction block assembly) using the Techstream.
- Select the Data List on the Techstream. Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [08/2013 - ]
.ABS/VSC/TRAC
Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note Stop Light Relay Output No. 1 integration relay output / ON or OFF ON: Relay output on
OFF: Relay output off- - Check for No. 1 integration relay (engine room junction block assembly) operation using the Data List and stop light operation by performing an Active Test.
Result
Result Proceed to Data List content and stop light operation are normal. A Data List content and stop light operation are abnormal or Data List content is normal but stop lights do not turn on or off. B
B → See step 6
A: Go to next step
- Select the Active Test on the Techstream. Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [08/2013 - ]
.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STP2 TERMINAL)
- Turn the power switch off.
- Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.
- Disconnect the A24 skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A24-6 (STP2) - Body ground Stop light switch assembly ON (Brake pedal depressed) 11 to 14 V A24-6 (STP2) - Body ground Stop light switch assembly OFF (Brake pedal released) Below 1.5 V TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to Skid Control ECU (Brake Booster with Master Cylinder Assembly))
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (STP2 CIRCUIT)
OK: Go to next step
- Turn the power switch off.
- RECONFIRM DTC
- Reconnect the A24 skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) connector.
- Clear the DTCs. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [08/2013 - ] .
- Turn the power switch on (READY).
- Perform a road test.
- Check if the same DTC is output. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR [08/2013 - ]
.
Result
Result Proceed to DTC C1380/64 is not output. A DTC C1380/64 is output. B
B → See step 11
A → See step 9
- INSPECT ENGINE ROOM JUNCTION BLOCK ASSEMBLY
- Turn the power switch off.
- Check the No. 1 integration relay (engine room junction block assembly). Refer to ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION [08/2013 - ]
.
OK
The No. 1 integration relay (engine room junction block assembly) is normal.
NG → See step 10
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STP0 TERMINAL)
- Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connectors.
- Disconnect the A24 skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) connector.
- Turn the power switch on (IG).
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A24-3 (STP0) - Body ground Power switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to Skid Control ECU (Brake Booster with Master Cylinder Assembly))
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (STP0 CIRCUIT)
OK → See step 11
- Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connectors.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STP TERMINAL)
- Turn the power switch off.
- Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.
- Disconnect the A24 skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A24-33 (STP) - Body ground Stop light switch assembly ON (Brake pedal depressed) 11 to 14 V A24-33 (STP) - Body ground Stop light switch assembly OFF (Brake pedal released) Below 1.5 V TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to Skid Control ECU (Brake Booster with Master Cylinder Assembly))
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (STP CIRCUIT)
OK → See step 11
- Turn the power switch off.
- USE SIMULATION METHOD TO CHECK. Refer to HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING [08/2013 - ]
