DTC P0724 Brake Switch "B" Circuit High |
DESCRIPTION
The purpose of this circuit is to prevent the engine from stalling while driving in the lock-up condition when the brakes are suddenly applied.When the brake pedal is depressed, this switch sends a signal to the ECM. Then the ECM cancels the operation of the lock-up clutch while braking is in progress.DTC No.

P0724
| Stop light switch remains ON even when vehicle is driven in GO (30 km/h (18.63 mph) or more) and STOP (less than 3 km/h (1.86 mph)) pattern 5 times (2 trip detection logic)
| - Short in stop light switch signal circuit
- Stop light switch
- ECM

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
This DTC indicates that the stop light switch remains ON. When the stop light switch remains ON during GO and STOP driving, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the stop light switch. Then the MIL illuminates and the ECM stores the DTC. The vehicle must GO (30 km/h (18.63 mph) or more) and STOP (less than 3 km/h (1.86 mph)) 5 times for 2 driving cycles in order for the DTC to be output.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- HINT:
- Using the GTS to read the Data List allows switch, sensor, actuator and other item values to be read without removing any parts. Reading the Data List early in troubleshooting is one way to save time.
- NOTICE:
- In the table below, the values listed under "Normal Condition" are reference values. Do not depend solely on these reference values when deciding whether a part is faulty or not.
- Warm up the engine.
- Turn the engine switch off.
- Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
- Turn the engine switch to ON.
- Turn the GTS on.
- Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List.
- Follow the instructions on the GTS and read the Data List.
