WIRING DIAGRAM









INSPECTION PROCEDURE
NOTE: When replacing the brake actuator assembly, perform zero point calibration Programming and Relearning.
HINT: When C1425 and/or C1426 is output together with C1380, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by C1425 and/or C1426 first C1425, or C1426).

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK STOP LIGHT OPERATION
(a) Check that the stop lights come on when the brake pedal is depressed, and go off when the brake pedal is released.
OK:






NG -- INSPECT STOP LIGHT CIRCUIT
OK -- Continue to next step.
2. READ VALUE ON TECHSTREAM (STOP LIGHT SWITCH)
(a) Connect Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch on (IG).
(c) Select the Data List mode on Techstream Data List / Active Test.

ABS / VSC / TRAC:





(d) Check that the stop light switch condition observed on Techstream changes according to brake pedal operation.
OK:
The Techstream displays ON or OFF according to brake pedal operation.
NG -- INSPECT SKID CONTROL ECU (STP TERMINAL)
OK -- Continue to next step.
3. INSPECT SKID CONTROL ECU (STP2 TERMINAL)




(a) Turn the ignition switch off.
(b) Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.
(c) Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.
(d) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (STP2 CIRCUIT)
OK -- Continue to next step.
4. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (STOP LIGHT CONTROL RELAY)
(a) Reconnect the skid control ECU connector.
(b) Connect Techstream to the DLC3.
(c) Start the engine.
(d) Select the Active Test mode on Techstream Data List / Active Test.

ABS / VSC / TRAC:





(e) Check that the "ON" and "OFF" of the stop lights can be shown on the rear combination light by Techstream.
OK:
The stop lights turn on or off in accordance with Techstream.
NG -- INSPECT STOP LIGHT CONTROL RELAY
OK -- Continue to next step.
5. RECONFIRM DTC
(a) Turn the ignition switch off.
(b) Clear the DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.
(c) Start the engine.
(d) Perform a road test.
(e) Check if the same DTC is recorded Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.
Result:






B -- REPLACE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY
A -- CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS (SYMPTOM SIMULATION)
6. INSPECT STOP LIGHT CONTROL RELAY




(a) Turn the ignition switch off.
(b) Remove the stop light control relay.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPLACE STOP LIGHT CONTROL RELAY
OK -- Continue to next step.
7. INSPECT ENGINE ROOM RELAY BLOCK (POWER SOURCE TERMINAL)




(a) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT)
OK -- Continue to next step.
8. INSPECT SKID CONTROL ECU (STPO TERMINAL)




(a) Install the stop light control relay.
(b) Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.
(c) Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.
(d) Turn the ignition switch on (IG).
(e) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (STPO CIRCUIT)
OK -- REPLACE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY
9. INSPECT SKID CONTROL ECU (STP TERMINAL)




(a) Turn the ignition switch off.
(b) Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.
(c) Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.
(d) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (STP CIRCUIT)
OK -- REPLACE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY
