DTC C0040-9E: Brake Pedal Switch "A" Stuck On; DTC C0040-9F: Brake Pedal Switch "A" Stuck Off [11/2018 - ]: Procedure

  1. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY AND BRAKE PEDAL LOAD SENSING SWITCH) 
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    3. Select the Data List using the Techstream.

      Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST [11/2018 - ]

      Chassis > Brake/EPB > Data List 

      Tester Display Measurement Item Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Stop Light SW Stop light switch assembly (STP terminal input) OFF / ON OFF: Brake pedal released
      ON: Brake pedal depressed
      HINT: 
      The brake pedal state is determined using the voltage at terminal STP
      Brake Pedal Load Sensing SW Brake pedal load sensing switch (brake pedal support assembly) OFF / ON OFF: Brake pedal load sensing switch (brake pedal support assembly) OFF
      ON: Brake pedal load sensing switch (brake pedal support assembly) ON

    4. Check that the stop light switch display and brake pedal load sensing switch display observed on the Techstream change according to brake pedal operation.

      OK

      The Techstream displays ON or OFF according to brake pedal operation.

    5. Slowly depress the brake pedal, and check when the stop light switch and brake pedal load sensing switch turn on.

      OK

      First the stop light switch turns on, and then the brake pedal load sensing switch turns on.

  3. RECONFIRM DTC 
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Start the engine.
    3. Perform a road test under the same malfunction conditions recreated based on the Freeze Frame Data or customer problem analysis.
    4. Read the DTCs following the prompts on the Techstream. Enter the following menus: Chassis / Brake/EPB / Trouble Codes.

      Chassis > Brake/EPB > Trouble Codes 

    5. Check if the same DTC is output.

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      C0040-9E and C0040-9F is not output A
      C0040-9E and/or C0040-9F is output B

    Result:
