C1380





BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE SYSTEM: C1380/64: Stop Light Control Relay Malfunction
C1380/64 - Stop Light Control Relay Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

Upon receiving the dynamic radar cruise control system operating signal from the skid control ECU, the relay contact turns on and the stop light comes on.





WIRING DIAGRAM

Refer to DTC C1249/49 C1249.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
When replacing the brake booster with master cylinder (skid control ECU), perform initialization and calibration of the linear solenoid valve Initialization.

HINT
When C1249/49 is output together with C1380/64, inspect and repair the trouble areas indicated by C1249/49 first C1249.

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK STOP LIGHT OPERATION

(a) Check that the stop lights come on when the brake pedal is depressed and go off when the brake pedal is released.

OK:





NG -- INSPECT STOP LIGHT CIRCUIT Exterior Lighting System
OK -- Continue to next step.

2. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (STOP LIGHT SWITCH)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

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

(c) Select the Data List on the Techstream Data List / Active Test.

ABS/VSC/TRAC





(d) Check that the stop light switch condition observed on the Techstream changes according to brake pedal operation.

OK:

The Techstream displays ON or OFF according to brake pedal operation.

NG -- INSPECT SKID CONTROL ECU (STP TERMINAL)
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (STOP LIGHT CONTROL RELAY)

(a) Select the Active Test on the Techstream Data List / Active Test.

ABS/VSC/TRAC





(b) Perform the Active Test of the stop light control relay using the Techstream.

(c) Select the Data List on the Techstream Data List / Active Test.

ABS/VSC/TRAC





(d) Check for stop light control relay operation using the Data List and stop light operation by performing an Active Test.

Result:





B -- INSPECT STOP LIGHT CONTROL RELAY
A -- Continue to next step.

4. INSPECT SKID CONTROL ECU (STP2 TERMINAL)

(a) Turn the power switch off.





(b) Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.

(c) Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.

(d) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Voltage:

NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (STP2 CIRCUIT)
OK -- Continue to next step.

5. RECONFIRM DTC

(a) Reconnect the skid control ECU connector.

(b) Clear the DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

(c) Turn the power switch on (READY).

(d) Perform a road test.

(e) Check if the same DTC is recorded Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

Result:





B -- REPLACE BRAKE BOOSTER WITH MASTER CYLINDER Removal

A -- CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS How To Proceed With Troubleshooting

6. INSPECT STOP LIGHT CONTROL RELAY

(a) Turn the power switch off.

(b) Inspect the stop light control relay Testing and Inspection.

OK:

The stop light control relay is normal.

NG -- REPLACE STOP LIGHT CONTROL RELAY Removal
OK -- Continue to next step.

7. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SKID CONTROL ECU - STOP LIGHT CONTROL RELAY)

(a) Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connectors.

(b) Disconnect the skid control ECU connector and the stop light control relay connector.

(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:





NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

OK -- REPLACE BRAKE BOOSTER WITH MASTER CYLINDER Removal

8. INSPECT SKID CONTROL ECU (STP TERMINAL)

(a) Turn the power switch off.





(b) Make sure that there is no looseness at the locking part and the connecting part of the connector.

(c) Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.

(d) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Voltage:
