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.

Mirror Switch Circuit
DESCRIPTION
A switch signal of the outer mirror switch is transmitted to the
selected outer mirror control ECU by way
of the body ECU. Then, the outer mirror control ECU activates the mirror
motor to move the mirror UP,
DOWN, RIGHT and LEFT in response to the inputs.
HINT:

Inspection
1. INSPECT UNDERDRIVE PACK CLEARANCE
(a) Install the underdrive clutch to the transaxle case.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to damage the oil seal rings.
(b) Install a dial indicator as shown in the illustration.
(c) Measure the underdrive clutch pack clearance while
applying and releasing comp ...
