DTC P0571 Brake Switch "A" Circuit


DESCRIPTION

In addition to turning on the stop lights, the stop light switch signals are used for a variety of engine, transmission and suspension functions. The stop light switch is designed with 2 complementary signal outputs, STP and ST1-. The ECM analyzes these signal outputs to detect malfunctions in the stop light switch.
