    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 below.
