DTC P0571 Stop Light Switch Circuit Malfunction


DESCRIPTION

The cruise control system cancels cruising when the ECM detects that the brake pedal is depressed during cruise control driving. The stop light switch assembly sends signals to the ECM according to the brake pedal conditions. When the brake pedal is released, terminal ST1- is the positive (+) battery voltage, and terminal STP voltage is below 1 V. While the brake pedal is depressed, terminal ST1- is below 1 V, and STP is positive (+) battery voltage. During braking, the ECM cancels cruise control as one of the manual cancel functions.
The ECM outputs this trouble code when the voltage of terminals ST1- and STP are both below 1 V for 0.5 seconds or more at the same time.
The fail-safe function operates to enable normal driving even if there is a malfunction in the stop light signal circuit.

DTC No.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

1.INSPECT STOP LIGHT SWITCH OPERATION
  1. Check that the stop lights come on while the brake pedal is depressed, and go off when the brake pedal is released.

    OK:
    Brake Pedal Condition
    Stop Light Condition
    Depressed
    ON
    Released
    OFF


NG
INSPECT STOP LIGHT SWITCH CIRCUIT
OK

  1. Disconnect the stop light switch assembly connector.

  1. Measure the resistance.

    Standard resistance:
    Tester Connection
    Switch Condition
    Stop Light Condition
    1 - 2
    Switch pin free
    (Brake pedal depressed)
    Below 1Ω
    3 - 4
    Switch pin free
    (Brake pedal depressed)
    10 kΩ or higher
    1 - 2
    Switch pin pushed in
    (Brake pedal released)
    10 kΩ or higher
    3 - 4
    Switch pin pushed in
    (Brake pedal released)
    Below 1Ω
  1. Reconnect the stop light switch assembly connector.

  1. Disconnect the A21 ECM connector.

  1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

  1. Measure the voltage.

    Standard voltage:
    Tester Connection
    Brake Pedal Condition
    Specified Condition
    STP (A21-36) - Body ground
    Depressed
    10 to 14 V
    STP (A21-36) - Body ground
    Released
    Below 1V
    ST1- (A21-35) - Body ground
    Depressed
    Below 1V
    ST1- (A21-35) - Body ground
    Released
    10 to 14 V
  1. Reconnect the ECM connector.
