DTC C1249: Open in Stop Light Switch Circuit [06/2017 - 10/2020]: Procedure
- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (BS1 VOLTAGE VALUE)
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRAC/EPB / Data List.
Chassis > ABS/VSC/TRAC/EPB > Data List
Tester Display Measurement Item Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note BS1 Voltage Value +BS voltage value Min.: 0.00 V, Max.: 20.00 V - Changes in proportion to battery voltage Chassis > ABS/VSC/TRAC/EPB > Data List
Tester Display BS1 Voltage Value - Take a note of the +BS voltage value.
HINT:
The noted +BS voltage value is used in a later step.

- CHECK ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND BRAKE PEDAL OPERATION
- Interview the customer to check if the pedals were depressed simultaneously while driving or braking.
OK
The pedals were not depressed simultaneously.
HINT:
The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) may store this DTC upon judging that a stuck on malfunction has occurred when the accelerator pedal and brake pedal are depressed simultaneously.
If the pedals were depressed simultaneously, clear the DTC because it is not a malfunction.

*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to Skid Control ECU (Brake Actuator Assembly)) - Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.
OK
The connector is securely connected.
- Disconnect the A33 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.
- Check both the connector case and the terminals for deformation and corrosion.
OK
No deformation or corrosion.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A33-30 (STP) - Body ground Stop light switch assembly on (Brake pedal depressed) (+BS x 0.85) to 14 V* A33-30 (STP) - Body ground Stop light switch assembly off (Brake pedal released) Below 1.5 V HINT:
*: The minimum voltage value varies depending on the +BS terminal voltage value. The minimum voltage is 85% or more of the +BS terminal voltage.
