DTC C1430: Brake Pedal Load Sensing Switch OFF Stuck Malfunction; DTC C1431: Brake Pedal Load Sensing Switch ON Stuck Malfunction [12/2013 - 11/2016]: Description

The brake pedal load sensing switch (brake pedal support assembly) turns on when the brake pedal is depressed with a force exceeding a predetermined level.

The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) uses this circuit to detect if the brake pedal is depressed or not.

DTC No. Detection Item DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
C1430 Brake Pedal Load Sensing Switch OFF Stuck Malfunction Either of the following is detected:
  1. With the stop light switch assembly on, the brake pedal load sensing switch off, and the master cylinder pressure 6 MPa (61.2 kgf/cm2, 870 psi) or more, the deceleration is 0.4 G or more for 1 second or more.
  2. With the stop light switch assembly on, the brake pedal load sensing switch off, and the master cylinder pressure 6 MPa (61.2 kgf/cm2, 870 psi) or more, the vehicle speed is 0 km/h (0 mph) for 5 seconds or more.
