DTC P0724 Brake Switch "B" Circuit High


DESCRIPTION

The purpose of this circuit is to prevent the engine from stalling while driving in lock-up when the brakes are suddenly applied.
When the brake pedal is depressed, this switch sends a signal to the TCM. Then the TCM cancels the operation of the lock-up clutch while braking is in progress.

DTC Code
DTC Detection Condition
Trouble Area
P0724
Stop light switch remains on even when the vehicle is driven in a stop (less than 3 km/h (2 mph)) and go (30 km/h (19 mph) or more) pattern 5 times (2-trip detection logic).
  1. Short in stop light switch signal circuit
  2. Stop light switch
  3. TCM

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

This DTC indicates that the stop light switch remains on. When the stop light switch remains on during stop and go driving, the TCM interprets this as a fault in the stop light switch. Then the MIL illuminates and the TCM stores the DTC. The vehicle must stop (less than 3 km/h (2 mph)) and go (30 km/h (19 mph) or more) 5 times for 2 driving cycles in order for the DTC to be stored.
