Toyota Avalon (XX50) 2019-2022 Service & Repair Manual: Stop Switch OFF Stuck (C1426)

DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) receives stop light switch assembly signals and uses them to determine whether or not the brakes are applied.

The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) has a detection circuit that it uses to detect a short in the stop light input signal circuit or stop light circuit when the stop light switch assembly is on (brake pedal depressed).

If the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) detects a short in this circuit, it will store this DTC.

DTC No.

Stop Switch OFF Stuck

Either of the following is detected when the vehicle speed of 3 km/h (2 mph) or more:

  • With the stop light switch assembly off, the stop light switch assembly is judged to be on based on the master cylinder pressure value for 3 seconds or more.
  • With the stop light switch assembly off, the master cylinder pressure is more than 8 MPa (81.6 kgf/cm2, 1160 psi) for 3 seconds or more.
  • Wire harness or connector
  • Stop light switch assembly
  • Skid Control ECU (brake Actuator Assembly)

PROCEDURE

1.

READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (BS1 VOLTAGE VALUE)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(c) Enter the following menus: Chassis / ABS/VSC/TRAC/EPB / Data List.

2.

CHECK BRAKE PEDAL AND STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION

(a) Check the brake pedal height installation.

Click here

(b) Check the stop light switch assembly installation.

Click here

OK:

The brake pedal height and stop light switch assembly installation are normal.

HINT:

If the on/off status of the stop light switch assembly and pressure increase information from the master cylinder pressure sensor do not match due to an improperly installed brake pedal or stop light switch assembly, this DTC may be stored. Therefore, be sure to check the installation condition of the pedal and switch before inspecting the input signals and other related parts.
