Go to Step 7.
Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check the brake pedal height.
Refer to GROUP 35A - On-vehicle Service, Brake Pedal Check and Adjustment .

Q. Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 3.
Adjust the brake pedal height.

STEP 3. Check the stop lamp switch.
Refer to GROUP 35A - Brake Pedal .

Q. Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 4.
Replace the stop lamp switch.

STEP 4. M.U.T.-III data list
Item 19: Stop lamp switch (Refer to data list reference table ).

Q. Is the check result normal?
Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Connector check: D-134 stop lamp switch connector
Check for the contact with terminals.

Q. Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 6.
Repair the defective connector.

STEP 6. Measure the voltage at stop lamp switch connector D-134.
Disconnect the connector, and measure the voltage between terminal No.2 and earth at the harness side.
OK: System voltage

Q. Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 7.
Go to Step 12.

STEP 7. Measure the voltage at engine-A/T-ECU connector D-214.
(1)Connect stop lamp switch connector D-134.
(2)Measure the voltage between engine-A/T-ECU connector D-214 terminal No.39 and earth.
OK:

    Brake pedal depressed: System voltage
    Brake pedal not depressed: 1 V or less

Q. Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 8.
Go to Step 10.

STEP 8. Connector check: D-214 engine-A/T-ECU connector
Check for the contact with terminals.

Q. Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 9.
Repair the defective connector.

STEP 9. M.U.T.-III data list
Item 19: Stop lamp switch (Refer to data list reference table ).

Q. Is the check result normal?
Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
Replace the engine-A/T-ECU.

STEP 10. Connectors check: D-230 intermediate connector, D-214 engine-A/T-ECU connector
Check for the contact with terminals.

Q. Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 11.
Repair the defective connector.

STEP 11. Check the harness between stop lamp switch connector D-134 terminal No.1 and engine-A/T-ECU connector D-214 terminal No.39.
Check the output line for short and open circuit.

Q. Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 9.
Repair the wiring harness.

STEP 12. Connector check: D-241 intermediate connector
Check for the contact with terminals.

Q. Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 13.
Repair the defective connector.

STEP 13. Check the harness between stop lamp switch connector D-134 terminal No.2 and battery.
Check the power supply line for short and open circuit.

Q. Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 9.
Repair the wiring harness.
