BRAKE SWITCH TEST PROCEDURES
STEP DETAILS
Remove rubber floor mat. Pry out plastic retaining pins.
Remove upper guard plate. Lifts off.
Remove brake pull and lower guard plate. See
Figure 5-12. Remove spring clip and clevis pin from brake
pull. Remove two hex head bolts from lower
guard plate. Remove guard plate and remove
brake pull or secure out of way.
Test switch. See Figure 5-13.
Note: Wires should be attached to two
lower spade terminals of switch.
Note: Check switch lever to make sure
brake pedal arm is pushing and releasing
switch lever.
Note: There is a connector on the inside of
right frame rail to the right of the brake
pedal in this circuit. If no continuity, check
connector.
With both wires still plugged to switch and key
to an “on” position. Check instrument cluster to
make sure the selected mode and on lights are
illuminated (block wheels or raise rear wheels
off ground to prevent accidental runaway of
vehicle). Touch the voltmeter leads to the
spade terminals just in front of the wire
connectors (polarity not important). Be careful
to touch only the spade terminals with the
voltmeter leads.
Pedal up – should be 0 volts.
Pedal depressed – should be approximately 6
volts (polarity not important).
If both voltages are correct, then the switch and
wiring from controller are good.
If both voltages are approximately 6 volts, then
the switch is bad (open).
If both voltages are zero, then unplug the wires
and check voltage at wires. If voltage of
approximately 6 volts is present, then switch is
bad (shorted).
If no voltage on wires, check continuity of wires
to controller (should be less than 1 ohm).
Black wire to pin 18 of large twist lock
connector.
Green wire to pin 38 of large twist lock
connector.
If either wire does not have continuity to
controller, repair wire or replace harness as
needed and retest.
If both wires have continuity to controller, then
the controller is faulty.
