Component Inspection

Brake light switch Check
1. Ignition "OFF" & Engine "OFF".
2. Disconnect the stop lamp switch connector.
3. Measure resistance between power terminal and signal terminal of the stop lamp switch connector.
  Specification :
  
  Resistance between terminals of the stop lamp 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.
