Inspection Procedure
- INSPECT FUSE (STOP)
- Remove the STOP fuse from the main body ECU.
- Measure the resistance of the fuse.
Standard resistance
TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITIONTester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition STOP fuse Always Below 1 Ω
NG: REPLACE FUSE
OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- READ VALUE OF INTELLIGENT TESTER OR TECHSTREAM (STOP LIGHT SWITCH)
- Connect the intelligent tester or Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Select the DATA LIST mode on the intelligent tester or Techstream.
- Intelligent tester
Skid control ECU:
SKID CONTROL ECUTester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note STOP LAMP SW Stop light switch / ON or OFF ON: Brake pedal depressed
OFF: Brake pedal released- - Techstream
Skid control ECU:

- Intelligent tester
- Check that the stop light observed on the intelligent tester or Techstream changes when the brake pedal is depressed.
OK: When the brake pedal is depressed, the intelligent tester or Techstream displays "ON".
OK: GO TO LIGHTING SYSTEM (See HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING )
NG: GO TO NEXT STEP
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STOP LIGHT SWITCH - BATTERY)
- Disconnect the A35 switch connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value (s) in the table below.
Standard voltage
TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITIONTester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition A35-2 - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- INSPECT STOP LIGHT SWITCH
- Disconnect the stop light switch connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.
Standard resistance
TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITIONTester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition 1 -2 Switch pin free Below 1 Ω 1-2 Switch pin pushed in 10 kΩ or higher
NG: REPLACE STOP LIGHT SWITCH
OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SKID CONTROL ECU - STOP LIGHT SWITCH)

- Disconnect the A21 ECU connector.
- Disconnect the A35 switch connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.
Standard resistance
TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITIONTester Connection Condition Specified Condition A21-25 (STP)-A35-1 Always Below 1 Ω A21-25 (STP) -Body ground Always 2 kΩ or lower
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SKID CONTROL ECU - BODY GROUND)
- Disconnect the A19 and A21 ECU connectors.
- Measure the resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.
Standard resistance
TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITIONTester Connection Condition Specified Condition A19-1 (GND)-Body ground Always Below 1 Ω A21-1 (GND4) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- RECONFIRM DTC
- Clear the DTC (see DTC CHECK/CLEAR ).
- Start the engine.
- Depress the brake pedal several times to test the stop light circuit.
- Check if the same DTC is recorded (see DTC CHECK/CLEAR
).
HINT:
Reinstall the sensors, connectors, etc. and restore the vehicle to its prior condition before rechecking for DTCs.
Result
RESULT REFERENCEResult Proceed to DTC (C1249/49) is not output A DTC (C1249/49) is output B HINT:
If troubleshooting has been carried out according to the "PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE", refer back to the table and proceed to the next step (see PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE ).
B: REPLACE SKID CONTROL ECU (See REMOVAL )
A: GO TO NEXT STEP
