DTC 14: Stoplight Switch System

  1. Check output circuit voltage at stoplight switch connector D-123 by backprobing. See Fig 1 . Is voltage approximately battery positive voltage?

    If Yes, then go to step 3.

    If No, then go to next step.

  4. Check stoplight switch connector D-123. See Fig 2 . Is connector damaged?

    If Yes, then repair or replace connector. Then check that diagnostic trouble code 14 is not output.

    If No, then go to next step.

  5. Check stoplight switch. See Fig 4 . Is circuit open?

    If Yes, then replace stoplight switch. Then check that diagnostic trouble code 14 is not output.

    If No, then check that diagnostic trouble code 14 is not output. If diagnostic trouble code 14 is output, then replace auto-cruise control-ECU. Then check that diagnostic trouble code 14 is not output.

  8. Check output circuit voltage at auto-cruise control-ECU connector D-12 by backprobing. See Figure . Are values satisfied?

    If Yes, then check that DTC 14 is not output. If diagnostic trouble code 14 is output, then replace auto-cruise control-ECU. Then check that DTC 14 is not.

    If No, then go to next step.

  9. Check auto-cruise control-ECU connector D-12. See Figure . Is connector damaged?

    If Yes, then repair or replace connector. Then check that diagnostic trouble code 14 is not output.

    If No, then go to next step.

  10. Check auto-cruise control vacuum pump connector B-50. See Figure . Is connector damaged?

    If Yes, then repair or replace connector. Then check that diagnostic trouble code 14 is not output.

    If No, then go to next step.

  11. Check auto-cruise vacuum pump. See Figure . Are values satisfied?

    If Yes, then go to next step.

    If No, then replace auto-cruise vacuum pump. Then check that diagnostic trouble code 14 is not output.

  12. Check harness wire between auto-cruise control vacuum pump connector B-50 and auto-cruise control-ECU connector D-12. See Figure and Figure . Is any harness wire between auto-cruise control vacuum pump connector B-50 and auto-cruise control-ECU connector D-12 damaged?

    If Yes, then repair harness wire and then check that diagnostic trouble code 14 is not output.

    If No, then check that diagnostic trouble code 14 is not output. If diagnostic trouble code 14 is output, then replace auto-cruise control-ECU. Then check that diagnostic trouble code 14 is not output.

  13. Check output circuit voltage at auto-cruise control-ECU connector D-12 by backprobing. See Fig 8 . Is voltage approximately battery positive voltage?

    If Yes, then go to next step.

    If No, then go to step 15.
