CRUISE CONTROL: CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM: P0571: Brake Switch "A" Circuit
P0571 - Brake Switch "A" Circuit
DESCRIPTION
When the brake pedal is depressed, the stop light switch assembly sends a signal to the ECM. When the ECM receives this signal, it cancels the cruise control. The fail-safe function operates to enable normal driving even if there is a malfunction in the stop light signal circuit. The cancellation condition occurs when voltage is applied to terminal STP. When the brake is applied, voltage is normally applied to terminal STP of the ECM through the STOP fuse and the stop light switch assembly, and the ECM turns the cruise control off.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
PROCEDURE
1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY - BATTERY)
(a) Disconnect the stop light switch assembly connector.
(b) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage:
NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.
2. INSPECT STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY
(a) Remove the stop light switch assembly Removal.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:
(c) Install the stop light switch assembly Installation.
NG -- REPLACE STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY Components
OK -- Continue to next step.
3. CHECK ECM
(a) Reconnect the stop light switch assembly connector.
(b) Disconnect the ECM connector.
(c) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(d) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage:
Result:
B -- REPLACE ECM Components
C -- REPLACE ECM Components
A -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY - ECM)
