- Ignition ON, apply the brake pedal and observe the Stoplamp Pedal Switch parameter.
- If the parameter reads On or Applied, refer to Stop Lamps Always On . If the stop lamps operate normal, replace the ECM/PCM.
- If the parameter reads Released, test the stop lamp switch signal circuit for an open/high resistance or short to ground. If circuit tests normal, replace the ECM/PCM.
