Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Inspect the MAIN 200 A fuse and STOP 10 A fuse.

• If the fuse is blown out:

• Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between MAIN 200 A fuse and brake switch terminal A.

If there is a common connector:

• Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground.

• Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

If there is no common connector:

• Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground.

• Replace the fuse.

• If the fuse is damaged:

• Replace the fuse.

• If all fuses are normal:

• Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between battery positive terminal and brake switch terminal A.

If there is a common connector:

• Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit.

• Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

If there is no common connector:

• Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit.

Go to Step 11.

6

• Verify that the brake switch connector is disconnected.

• Inspect for continuity between brake switch terminal B (wiring harness-side) and body ground.

• Is there continuity?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between brake switch terminal B and body ground.

If there is a common connector:

• Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit.

• Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

If there is no common connector:

• Inspect for the following:

• Open circuit between brake switch and body ground

• Loose or lifting ground point

• Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

Go to Step 11.

7

• Verify that the brake switch connector is disconnected.

• Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side) and body ground:

• Brake switch terminal D

• Brake switch terminal C

Yes

If the short to ground circuit could be detected in the wiring harness:

• Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between the following terminals:

• Brake switch terminal D—PCM terminal 2G

• Brake switch terminal C—PCM terminal 2R

If there is a common connector:

• Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground.
