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.

Speed Signal Circuit
DESCRIPTION
The clearance warning ECU receives the vehicle speed signal from the
combination meter.
HINT:
A voltage of 12 V or 5 V is output from each ECU and then input to
the combination meter. The signal
is changed to a pulse signal at the transistor in the combination meter.

Power Back Door Warning Buzzer does not Sound
DESCRIPTION
The power back door system uses a warning buzzer built into the
back door, which has 3 ways of
sounding that are used differently according to the situations:
When all the following conditions are met, the warning buzzer sounds at
a cycle of 0.3 seconds:
* The ignitio ...
