2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard resistance

   Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
   STOP (10 A) fuse	Always	Below 1 Ω

NG → REPLACE STOP FUSE 

OK: Go to next step 

1. Install the STOP fuse.
2. Check that the stop light comes on when the brake pedal is depressed, and goes off when the brake pedal is released.

   OK

   Condition	Illumination Condition
   Brake pedal depressed	ON
   Brake pedal released	OFF

NG → See step   7 

OK: Go to next step 

1. Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.
