(2) With the brake pedal applied, check switch for
continuity at the switch side of connector (Fig. 3) as
follows:
(a) There should be continuity between pink and
white wires.
(b) There should be no continuity between black
and white/pink wires.
(c) There should be no continuity between the
yellow/red and dark blue/red wires.
(3) If the above results are not obtained, check the
stop lamp switch adjustment. If adjustment is OK,
replace faulty switch. Refer to Group 5 - Brakes for
adjustment and service procedures.
VACUUM SUPPLY TEST
(1) Disconnect vacuum hose at the servo and in-
