DIAUA–01
DTC P0571/52 Brake Switch ”A” Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
When the brake pedal is depressed, the stop light switch sends a signal to the ECM. When the ECM receives
this signal, it cancels the cruise control.
A fail–safe function is provided so that the functions normally, even if there is a malfunction in the stop light
signal circuit.
The cancel condition occurs as battery positive voltage is supplied to terminal STP.
When the brake is on, battery positive voltage is normally applied through the STOP fuse and the stop light
switch to terminal STP of the ECM, and the ECM turns the cruise control OFF.
If the harness connected to terminal STP has an open circuit, terminal STP will have battery positive voltage
and the cruise control will be turned OFF.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using the hand–held tester or the OBD II scan tool, as freeze frame data records
the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, it is useful for determining
whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the air–fuel ratio was lean
or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.
Hand–held tester:
1 Check stop light switch using hand–held tester.
PREPARATION:
Connect the hand–held tester to the DLC3.
(a) Connect the hand–held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and push the hand–held tester main SW ON.
CHECK:
Select the item ”STOP LIGHT SW” in the DATA LIST and read its valve displayed.
OK:
Brake pedal depressed: ON
Brake pedal released: OFF
OK Proceed to next circuit inspection shown in

problem symptom table (See page DI–700).
NG
2 Check operation of stop light.
PREPARATION:
Check if the stop lights come on and go off normally when the brake pedal is depressed and released.
NG Check stop light circuit (See page BE–29).
OK

3 Connect hand–held tester, and read valve of stop light switch signal
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the hand–held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and push the hand–held tester main switch ON.
(c) Select the item ”DIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD II/DATA LIST/ALL/STOP LIGHT SW”.
CHECK:
Read the STP signal on the hand–held tester.
OK:
Brake Pedal STP Sognal ST1– Terminal Voltage
Depressed ON Below 1.5 V
Released OFF 7.5 – 14 V

4 Check for harness and connector between ECM and stop light switch (See page
IN–28).
NG Repair or replace harness or connector.
OK
Check and replace ECM (See page IN–28).
OBD II scan tool (excluding hand–held tester):
1 Check operation of stop light.
PREPARATION:
Check if the stop lights come on and go off normally when the brake pedal is depressed and released.
