Test 16B - Brake Switch Circuit
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1994 Eagle Vision, 1994 Dodge Intrepid, 1994 Chrysler New Yorker, 1994 Chrysler LHS, and 1994 Chrysler Concorde. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
For connector terminal identification, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION. For wiring diagram, see WIRING DIAGRAM.
- Turn ignition off. Disconnect CAB 37-pin connector. Inspect, clean or repair connector as necessary. Turn ignition on. Put DRB in voltmeter mode. Using DRB, check voltage on CAB connector terminal No. 22 (White/Tan wire). If DRB displays battery voltage with brake pedal depressed, replace CAB. Perform TEST VER-1A. If DRB does not display battery voltage with brake pedal depressed, go to next step.
- Turn ignition off. Disconnect brakelight switch connector. Inspect, clean or repair connector as necessary. Connect a jumper wire between chassis ground and White/Tan wire at brakelight switch connector terminal No. 2. See Fig 1. Put DRB in ohmmeter mode. Using DRB, check resistance of White/Tan wire at CAB connector terminal No. 22. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, repair open in White/Tan wire. Perform TEST VER-1A. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, adjust or replace brakelight switch. Perform TEST VER-1A.
