DTC P0504 Brake Switch "A" / "B" Correlation |
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 stores the DTC.- HINT:
- The normal switch conditions are as shown in the table below.
Signal (ECM Terminal)
| Brake Pedal Released
| In Transition
| Brake Pedal Depressed
|
STP
| OFF
| ON
| ON
|
ST1-
| ON
| ON
| OFF
|
- [OFF] denotes ground potential.
- [ON] denotes battery potential (+B).
- On the Techstream, both the Data List items Stop Light Switch and ST1 are ON when the brake pedal is depressed because the ST1 indication characteristic is opposite to the Stop Light Switch indication.
DTC No.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- NOTICE:
- Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
- HINT:
- Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
- STP signal conditions can be checked using the Techstream.
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Turn the Techstream on.
- Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Stop Light Switch.
- Check the STP signal when the brake pedal is depressed and released.

1.CHECK STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY (TERMINAL B VOLTAGE) |
Disconnect the A13 stop light switch connector.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Measure the voltage between the terminals of the A13 stop light switch connector and body ground.
- Standard voltage:
Tester Connections
| Specified Conditions
|
B (A13-2) - Body ground
| 11 to 14 V
|
B (A13-3) - Body ground
|
Reconnect the stop light switch connector.
2.INSPECT STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY |
Remove the stop light switch assembly.
Check the resistance.
- Standard resistance:
Tester Connections
| Switch Positions
| Specified Conditions
|
1 - 2
| Switch pin released
| Below 1 Ω
|
Switch pin pushed in
| 10 kΩ or higher
|
3 - 4
| Switch pin released
| 10 kΩ or higher
|
Switch pin pushed in
| Below 1 Ω
|
Reinstall the stop light switch assembly.

3.INSPECT ECM (STP AND ST1 - VOLTAGE) |
Disconnect the A21 ECM connector.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Measure the voltage between the terminals ST1- and STP of the A21 ECM connector and body ground.
- Standard voltage:
Tester Connections

| Specified Conditions
|
ST1- (A21-35) - Body ground
| Released
| 11 to 14 V

| 0 to 3 V
|
STP (A21-36) - Body ground
| Released
| 0 to 3 V
|
Depressed
| 11 to 14 V
|
Reconnect the ECM connector.
| REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR |
|
|
4.INSPECT FUSE (STOP AND IGN FUSE) |
Remove the STOP and IGN fuses from the main body ECU.
Check the resistance.
- Standard resistance:
- Below 1 Ω
Reinstall the STOP and IGN fuses.
| CHECK FOR SHORTS IN ALL HARNESSES AND CONNECTORS CONNECTED TO FUSE AND REPLACE FUSE |
