DTC P0504 Brake Switch "A" / "B" Correlation


DESCRIPTION

The stop light switch is a duplex system that transmits two signals: STP and ST1-. These two signals are used by the ECM to monitor whether or not the brake system is working properly. If the signals, which indicate the brake pedal is being depressed and released, are detected simultaneously, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the stop light switch and sets the DTC.

HINT:
The normal conditions are as shown in the table below. The signals can be read using the intelligent tester.

WIRING DIAGRAM


Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred. Camry


INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:
  1. Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
  2. STP signal conditions can be checked using the intelligent tester.
    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and turn the tester on.
    3. Select the following menu items: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Stop Light Switch.
    4. Check the STP signal when the brake pedal is depressed and released.

      Brake Pedal Operation
      Specified Condition
      Depressed
      STP signal ON
      Released
      STP signal OFF
1.CHECK STOP LIGHT SWITCH (TERMINAL VOLTAGE)
  1. Disconnect the A19 stop light switch connector. Camry
  2. Disconnect the A19 stop light switch connector.

  1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

  1. Measure the voltage between the terminals of the stop light switch connector and body ground.

    Standard voltage:
    Tester Connection
    Specified Condition
    B (A19-2) - Body ground
    9 to 14 V
    B (A19-4) - Body ground
    9 to 14 V
  1. Reconnect the stop light switch connector.

2.INSPECT STOP LIGHT SWITCH
  1. Remove the stop light switch. Camry
  2. Remove the stop light switch.

  1. Measure the resistance between the terminals.

    Standard resistance:
    Tester Connection
    Switch Position
    Specified Condition
    1 - 2
    Switch pin not pushed
    Below 1 Ω
    Switch pin pushed
    10 kΩ or higher
    3 - 4
    Switch pin not pushed
    10 kΩ or higher
    Switch pin pushed
    Below 1 Ω
  1. Reinstall the stop light switch.

3.CHECK ECM (STP AND ST1 - VOLTAGE)
  1. Disconnect the A24 ECM connector. Camry
  2. Disconnect the A24 ECM connector.

  1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

  1. Measure the voltage between terminals ST1- and STP of the A24 ECM connector and body ground.

    Standard voltage:
    Tester Connection
    Brake Pedal Operation
    Specified Condition
    ST1- (A24-35) - Body ground
    Released
    9 to 14 V
    Depressed
    Below 1.5 V
    STP (A24-36) - Body ground
    Released
    Below 1.5 V
    Depressed
    9 to 14 V
  1. Reconnect the ECM connector.

4.INSPECT FUSE (STOP AND IGN FUSES)
  1. Remove the STOP and IGN fuses from the instrument panel J/B. Camry
  2. Remove the STOP and IGN fuses from the instrument panel J/B.

  1. Measure the resistance.

    Standard resistance:
    Below 1 Ω
  1. Reinstall the STOP and IGN fuses.
