Pinpoint Test J: The Stoplamp Are On Continuously: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Lincoln MKX and 2007 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Refer to SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS , Turn Signal/Stop/Hazard Lamps for schematic and connector information.
When the brake pedal is applied, the stoplamp switch routes voltage to the smart junction box (SJB), the high mounted stoplamp and the PCM through circuit CCB08 (VT/WH). When the SJB detects the brake pedal applied, the SJB provides voltage to the LH and RH rear stoplamp through circuits CLS18 (GY/BN) and CLS19 (VT/OG), respectively. If equipped with trailer tow, voltage is also supplied to the respective trailer tow stop/turn relay.
- DTC B1485 (Brake Pedal Input Short to Battery) - is an on-demand DTC that sets when the SJB detects a short to voltage from the stoplamp switch input circuit.
- DTC B2045 (Left Rear Stop Lamp Circuit Open) - is an on-demand DTC that sets when the SJB detects a short to voltage on the LH rear stop/turn lamp voltage supply circuit.
- DTC B2047 (Right Rear Stop Lamp Circuit Open) - is an on-demand DTC that sets when the SJB detects a short to voltage on the RH rear stop/turn lamp voltage supply circuit.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Stoplamp switch
- PCM
- SJB
