BRAKE Warning Light Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The BRAKE warning light lights up when the brake fluid is insufficient, the parking brake is applied or the
EBD is defective.
The BRAKE warning light also lights up when DTC No. C1213/63 or C1259/59 is detected, however, the EBD
is not inhibited in this case.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Connecting terminals Tc and CG of the DLC3 causes the ECU to display the DTC by flashing the ABS warn-
ing light.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Check voltage between terminals Tc and CG of DLC3.
PREPARATION:
Turn the ignition switch ON.
CHECK:
Measure voltage between terminal Tc and CG of DLC3.
OK:
Voltage: 10 ± 14 V
OK If ABS warning light does not blink even after Tc
and CG are connected, the ECU may be defec-
tive.

PRE±CHECK
1. DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
(a) Check the indicator.
When the ignition switch is turned ON, check that the PS
warning light goes on for 1.5 seconds.
HINT:
If the indicator check result is not normal, proceed to trou-
bleshooting for the PS warning light circuit (See page
DI±486).
When the EMPS system is faulty, the master warning light
in the combination meter and the PS warning light in the
multiinformation display lights up.
(b) In case of not using TOYOTA hand±held tester:
Check the DTC.
(1) Using SST, connect terminals Tc and CG of the
DLC3.
SST 09843±18040
(2) Remove the EMPS ECU with connector still con-
nected.
(3) Connect the both terminals of the 1kW resistance
and LED (Light Emitting Diode) circuit to terminals
WL and PGND of the EMPS ECU.
(4) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(5) Read the DTC from the PS warning light.

HINT:
If no code appears, inspect the diagnostic circuit and PS
warning light circuit (See page DI±491 or DI±486).
As an example, the blinking patterns for normal code and
codes 21 and 22 are shown on the left.
(6) Codes are explained in the DTC chart on page
DI±460.
(7) After completing the check, disconnect terminals Tc
and CG of the DLC3, and turn off the display.
If 2 or more malfunctions are indicated at the same
time, the lowest numbered DTC will be displayed
first.
(c) In case of using TOYOTA hand±held tester:
Check the DTC.
(1) Hook up the TOYOTA hand±held tester to the
DLC3.
(2) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(3) Read the DTC by following the prompts on the tes-
ter screen.
HINT:
Please refer to the TOYOTA hand±held tester operator's manu-
al for further details.
(d) In case of not using TOYOTA hand±held tester:
Clear the DTC.
(1) Using SST, connect terminals Ts and CG of DLC3.
SST 09843±18040
(2) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(3) ON and OFF the terminal CG of the DLC3 4 times
or more within 8 seconds, delete DTC of the EMPS
ECU.
(4) Check that the PS warning light shows the normal
code.
(5) Remove the SST from the DLC3.

DLC3.
(2) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(3) Operate the TOYOTA hand±held tester to erase the
codes. (See TOYOTA hand±held tester operator's
manual.)
2. INPUT SIGNAL CHECK (TEST MODE)
(a) In case of not using TOYOTA hand±held tester:
Check the input signal.
(1) Turn the ignition switch OFF.
(2) Using SST, connect terminals Ts and CG of DLC3.
SST 09843±18040
(3) Check the warning light goes off with driving more
than 20 km/h (12 mph).
HINT:
If the warning light goes off during driving, the sensor can be
judged to normal.
(4) Stop the vehicle.
(5) Using SST, connect terminals Tc and CG of DLC3.
SST 09843±18040
(6) Read the number of blinks of the PS warning light.
HINT:
See the list of DTC shown on the next page.
Even a sensor is normal, it output codes 71 and 72 during
test mode.
(7) After doing check, disconnect the SST from the ter-
minals Ts and CG, Tc and CG of DLC3, and turn the
ignition switch OFF.
