DTC P0571 Brake Switch "A" Circuit
DESCRIPTION
When the brake pedal is depressed, the stop light switch 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 SW fuse and the stop light switch, and the ECM turns the cruise control off.

Check for intermittent
problems
1. CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
HINT:
For use of the intelligent tester only:
Inspect the vehicle's ECM using check mode.
Intermittent problems are easier to detect with an
intelligent tester when the ECM is in check mode. In
check mode, the ECM uses 1 trip detection logic, which
