Code No.C1346:
Abnormal stop lamp circuit <Vehicles with FCM-LS>
caution |
- When more than
one stop lamp do not illuminate due to a blown bulb, this diagnosis code may be set. Diagnose
the rear combination lamps (Refer to GROUP 54A - Rear Combination Lamp, Troubleshooting, The
Stop Lamps do not Illuminate or go out Normally
).
- If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, an incorrect diagnosis code may be
set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP 54C - Troubleshooting
).
- Whenever ECU is replaced, ensure that the CAN bus lines are normal.
- When the hydraulic unit assembly (integrated with ASC-ECU) is replaced, always carry
out the calibration of the steering wheel sensor and the G sensor (Refer to
and ).
|
OPERATION
- ASC-ECU monitors whether the stop lamp is ON or OFF.
- The ASC-ECU activates the stop lamp relay to illuminate the stop lamps.
- The ASC-ECU monitors the operating conditions of the stop lamp switch, the stop
lamps and the stop lamp relay.
DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS
- The system cannot recognise the operating condition of the stop lamps.
- When the stop lamp relay is off, the ON/OFF status of the stop lamp switch
does not coincide with the actual stop lamp illumination for at least one second.
- Although the stop lamp relay is on, the stop lamps remain off (do not come on) for
at least one second.
PROBABLE CAUSES
Current trouble
- Blown stop lamp bulbs
- Malfunction of the stop lamp relay
- The stop lamp switch improperly installed
- Malfunction of the stop lamp switch
- Damaged wiring harness or connector
- Malfunction of the hydraulic unit assembly (integrated with ASC-ECU)
Past trouble
- Carry out diagnosis with particular emphasis on the stop lamp switch,
connector(s) or wiring harness between the stop lamp switch and ASC-ECU. For diagnosis procedures,
refer to How to treat past trouble (GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection
Service Points
).

|
|
|
|
STEP 4. Measure the voltage at the ASC-ECU connector (ASTP terminal)
|
|
(1)Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
|
|
(2)Check the voltage between the ASC-ECU connector ASTP terminal and body earth. OK: System voltage
|
|
Q.
Is the check result normal?
|
|
Go to Step 6.
|
|
|
|
Go to Step 5.
|
|
|
|
STEP 5. Check of short to earth, and open circuit in ASTP line between
ASC-ECU connector and stop lamp relay connector. Check of short to earth, and open circuit in power
supply line between fusible link and stop lamp relay connector.
|
|
(1)Disconnect the ASC-ECU connector and stop lamp relay connector, and measure at
the wiring harness side.
|
|
(2)Measure the resistance in ASTP line between the ASC-ECU connector and the stop
lamp relay connector. OK: Continuity exists (2 Ω or less)
|
|
(3)Measure the resistance between the ASC-ECU connector ASTP terminal and body earth. OK: No continuity (1 kΩ or more)
|
|
(4)Check the voltage in power supply line between the stop lamp relay connector and
body earth. OK: System voltage
|
|
Q.
Is the check result normal?
|
|
Go to Step 6.
|
|
|
|
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness. Then go to Step 10.
|
|
|
|
STEP 6. Check of open circuit in earth line between the stop lamp
relay connector and body earth.
|
|
(1)Disconnect the stop lamp relay connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
|
|
(2)Measure the resistance in earth line between the stop lamp relay connector and
body earth. OK: Continuity exists (2 Ω or less)
