Toyota Corolla (E120): Circuit description

When the brake pedal is depressed, the stop lamp switch assy sends a signal to the cruise control ecu assy.

When the cruise control ecu assy receives this signal, it cancels the cruise control.

A fail–safe function is provided so that cancel functions normally, even if there is a malfunction in the stop light switch circuit.

The cancel conditions are: battery positive voltage at terminal stp–.

When the brake pedal is depressed, normal battery positive voltage normally is applied through the stop fuse and stop lamp switch assy to terminal stp– of the cruise control ecu assy, and the cruise control ecu assy turns the cruise control to off.

If the harness connected to terminal stp– has an open circuit, terminal stp– will have battery positive voltage and the cruise control will be turned off.

Also, when the brake pedal is depressed, the magnetic clutch circuit is cut mechanically by the stop lamp switch assy, turning the cruise control off.

    If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P (except vehicles with a manual transmission)
    If the shift lever cannot be shifted with your foot on the brake pedal, there may be a problem with the shift lock system (a system to prevent accidental operation of the shift lever). Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately. The following steps may be used as an emergency ...

    Basic inspection
    When the malfunction is not confirmed in the dtc check, troubleshooting should be carried out in all the possible circuits considered as causes of the problem. In many cases, by carrying out the basic engine check shown in the following flowchart, the location causing the problem can be found ...
