Component Inspection

■ Brake light switch Check 

  1. IG "OFF".
  2. Disconnect the brake light switch connector.
  3. Measure resistance between power terminal and signal terminal of the brake light switch connector.

    Specification: 

    Resistance between terminals of the brake light switch - ∞Ω(when the plunger is pushed down), 0Ω(when the plunger isn't pushed down)

    Resistance between the terminals of the brake switch - ∞Ω(when the plunger is not pushed down), 0Ω(when the plunger is pushed down)

  4. Is the measured value within specifications?

    YES 

    • Fault is intermittent caused by poor connection in brake light switch harness and/or HECU's connector. Go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.

    NO 

    • Substitute with a known-good brake light switch and check for proper operation. If problem is corrected, replace brake light switch and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
