DTC P0504 Brake Switch "A"/"B" Correlation
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
In addition to turning on the stop lamps, the stop lamp switch signals are used for a variety of engine, trans-
mission, and suspension functions as well as being an input for diagnostic checks. It is important that the
switch operates properly, therefore this switch is designed with two complementary signal outputs: STP and
STI-. The ECM analyzes these signal outputs to detect malfunctions in the stop lamp switch.
HINT:
Normal condition is as shown in the table.

DIAGNOSTICS - ENGINE (1GR-FE)
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when
a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was
running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other
data from the time when a malfunction occurred.
1 Check operation of stop light.
CHECK:
Check if the stop lights come on and go off normally when the brake pedal is depressed and released.
NG Check and repair stop light circuit.
OK
2 Check stop light switch (See page BE-70).
NG Replace stop light switch.
OK
