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

DTC P0724 Brake Switch "B" Circuit High


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 an intelligent tester.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:
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 be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction (CAMRY_ACV40 RM000000PDS01FX.html).
1.CHECK STOP LIGHT (OPERATION OF STOP LIGHT)
  1. Check whether the stop lights turn on and off normally when the brake pedal is depressed and released.

    OK:
    Stop lights turn ON when brake pedal is depressed.
