Test

Result

Action

1

Turn ignition on, operate rear brake switch and check brake light operation.

OK

Proceed to test 2

Faulty

Rectify fault, proceed to test 6

2

Check cable and terminal integrity:

- Engine ECM pin C14

- Engine ECM pin C26

- Ignition switch pin 8

OK

Disconnect front and rear brake switch connectors, proceed to test 3

Faulty

Rectify fault, proceed to test 6

3

With brakes released, check front and rear brake switch operation:

The following should be short circuit:

- Front brake switch pin 8 to pin 7

- Rear brake light switch pin 3 to pin 2

The following should be open circuit:

- Front brake switch pin 8 to pin 6

- Rear brake light switch pin 3 to pin 1

With the front brake switch pressed the following should be short circuit:

- Front brake switch pin 8 to pin 6

The following should be open circuit:

- Front brake switch pin 8 to pin 7

With the rear brake switch pressed the following should be open circuit:

- Rear brake light switch pin 3 to pin 2

OK

Proceed to test 4

Faulty

Replace relevant brake switch, proceed to test 6

4

Re-Connect the brake switch connectors. Check cable continuity:

- Engine ECM pin C14 to front brake switch pin 6

- Engine ECM pin C26 to rear brake switch pin 2

- Engine ECM pin C14 to rear brake switch pin 1

- Engine ECM pin C14 to front brake switch pin 6

With the brake switches released:

- Engine ECM pin C26 to ignition switch pin 4

OK

Proceed to test 5

Open Circuit

Locate and rectify wiring fault, proceed to test 6

5

Re-Connect the brake switch connectors. With the ignition switch on, measure the following Voltages:

- Engine ECM pin C26 to ground

- Rear brake switch pin 1 to ground (with rear brake pedal depressed)

- Rear brake switch pin 2 to ground (with rear brake pedal released)

- Rear brake switch pin 3 to ground

- Front brake switch pin 8 to ground

- Front brake switch pin 7 to ground (with front brake lever released)

- Front brake switch pin 6 to ground (with front brake lever pressed)

Greater than 10V

Proceed to test 6

Less than 10V

Locate and rectify wiring fault, proceed to test 6

6

Reconnect harness, clear fault code and run engine.

OK

Action complete - quit test
