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


DESCRIPTION

The stop light switch assembly 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 that the brake pedal is being depressed and released, are detected simultaneously, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the stop light switch assembly and stores the DTC.

HINT:
The normal signal conditions are as shown in the table below.

Signal (ECM Terminal)
Brake Pedal Released
In Transition
Brake Pedal Depressed
STP
OFF
ON

ST1-

  1. [OFF] denotes ground potential.
  2. [ON] denotes battery potential (+B).
  3. On the GTS, the Data List items Stop Light Switch and ST1 are both ON when the brake pedal is depressed because the characteristics of ST1 indication are the opposite of the characteristics of Stop Light Switch indication.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
Inspect the fuses of circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
HINT:
  1. Read freeze frame data using the GTS. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
  2. Stop light switch conditions can be checked using the GTS.
    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
    3. Turn the GTS on.
    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Stop Light Switch.
    5. Check Stop Light Switch when the brake pedal is depressed and released.
