DTC P0724 Brake Switch "B" Circuit High


DESCRIPTION

The stop light switch assembly is part of 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. This DTC indicates that the stop light switch assembly remains on. When the stop light switch assembly remains on during "STOP and GO" driving, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the stop light switch assembly. Then the ECM illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC.

DTC No.
DTC Detection Condition
Trouble Area
P0724
The stop light switch assembly remains on even when the vehicle repeats 5 cycles of STOP (less than 3 km/h [1.86 mph]) and GO (30 km/h [18.65 mph] or more) (2 trip detection logic).

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

This DTC indicates that the stop light switch assembly remains on. When the stop light switch assembly remains on during "STOP and GO" driving, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the stop light switch assembly. The ECM turns on MIL and stores the DTC. The vehicle must STOP (less than 3 km/h (1.86 mph)) and GO (30 km/h (18.65 mph) or more) 5 times during 2 driving cycles, in order to detect a malfunction.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:
  1. Using the GTS, the Data List item "Stop Light Switch" and "ST1" can be read (Click here).
  2. Read freeze frame data using the GTS. 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.
1.READ VALUE USING GTS (STOP LIGHT SWITCH)
  1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

  1. Turn the GTS on.

  1. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Stop Light Switch.

  1. Read the value displayed on the GTS when the brake pedal is depressed and released.
