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).
| - Short in stop light switch signal circuit
- Stop light switch
- 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.
