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 TCM. Then the TCM cancels the operation of the lock-up clutch while braking is in progress.

DTC Code
DTC Detection Condition
Trouble Area
P0724
Stop light switch remains on even when the vehicle is driven in a stop (less than 3 km/h (2 mph)) and go (30 km/h (19 mph) or more) pattern 5 times (2-trip detection logic).
  1. Short in stop light switch signal circuit
  2. Stop light switch
  3. TCM

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

This DTC indicates that the stop light switch remains on. When the stop light switch remains on during stop and go driving, the TCM interprets this as a fault in the stop light switch. Then the MIL illuminates and the TCM stores the DTC. The vehicle must stop (less than 3 km/h (2 mph)) and go (30 km/h (19 mph) or more) 5 times for 2 driving cycles in order for the DTC to be stored.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE


DATA LIST
HINT:
Using the intelligent tester to read the Data List allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the Data List information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic 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.
  1. Warm up the engine.

  2. Turn the ignition switch off.

  3. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

  4. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

  5. Turn the intelligent tester on.

  6. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / ECT / Data List.

  7. According to the display on the intelligent tester, read the Data List.
