Standard:
TERMINALS VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION TABLETester Connection Specified Condition 1 - Body ground 8 to 14 V 5 - Body ground 8 to 14 V
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT)
OK: Go to next step
- INSPECT STOP LIGHT OPERATION RELAY
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in TERMINALS RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION TABLE .
Standard:
TERMINALS RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION TABLETester Connection Specified Condition 3 - 4 Below 1 3 - 5 10 k or higher 3 - 4 10 k or higher
(When battery positive voltage is applied to terminal 1 and battery negative voltage to terminal 2.)3 - 5 Below 1
(When battery positive voltage is applied to terminal 1 and battery negative voltage to terminal 2.)
NG: REPLACE STOP LIGHT OPERATION RELAY
OK: Go to next step
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in TERMINALS RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION TABLE .
- INSPECT SKID CONTROL ECU (STPO TERMINAL VOLTAGE)
- Install the stop light operation relay.
- Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in TERMINALS VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION TABLE .
Standard:
TERMINALS VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION TABLETester Connection Specified Condition S28-16 (STPO) - Body ground 10 to 14 V
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (STPO CIRCUIT)
OK: Go to next step
- RECONFIRM DTC
- Clear the DTC (see DTC CHECK/CLEAR ).
- Check if the same DTC is detected (see DTC CHECK/CLEAR ).
HINT:
Reinstall the sensors, connectors, etc. and restore the previous vehicle conditions before rechecking for DTCs.
Result:
RESULT REFERENCEDTC is output A DTC is not output B B: END
A: REPLACE MASTER CYLINDER SOLENOID (See OVERHAUL )
- INSPECT STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSY (POWER SOURCE TERMINAL VOLTAGE)
- Disconnect the stop light switch connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in TERMINALS VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION TABLE .
Standard:
TERMINALS VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION TABLETester Connection Condition Specified Condition S12-2 - Body ground Always 10 to 14 V
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT)
OK: Go to next step
