1 Check AM2 Fuse.
PREPARATION:
Remove the AM2 fuse.
CHECK:
Check continuity of the AM2 fuse.
OK:

HINT:
Fuse may be burnt out even if it appears to be OK during
visual inspection.
If fuse is OK, install it.
NG Go to step 4.
OK
2 Prepare for inspection (See step 1 on page DI±629).
3 Check SRS warning light circuit.
PREPARATION:
(a) Disconnect the airbag sensor assembly connector.
(b) Connect negative (±) terminal cable to the battery.
(c) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
CHECK:
Measure the voltage between body ground and LA terminal of
the harness side connector of the airbag sensor assembly.
OK:
Voltage: 10 ± 14 V
NG Check combination meter or repair SRS warn-
ing light circuit.
OK
Replace airbag sensor assembly.

CIRCUIT INSPECTION
DTC P1520 Stop light switch circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
When the brake pedal is depressed, the stop light switch sends a signal to the hybrid vehicle control ECU.
When the hybrid vehicle control ECU receives this signal, it cancels the cruise control.
A fail±safe function is provided so that the cancel functions normally, even if there is a malfunction in the stop
light signal circuit.
The cancel condition is that battery voltage is supplied to terminal STP.
When the brake is on, battery voltage is normally applied through the STOP fuse and stop light switch to
terminal STP of the hybrid vehicle control ECU, and the hybrid vehicle control ECU turns the cruise control
OFF.
If the harness connected to terminal STP has an open circuit, terminal STP will have battery voltage and
the cruise control will be turned OFF.

PRE±CHECK
1. BEFORE CHECK
Since a trouble symptom may result from multiple causes, check not only the part where a user complains
of but also the following items in order to be sure no other trouble is identified.
Fuse related parts
Wire harness related parts
Valve related parts
NOTICE:
Setting the ignition switch to START temporarily stops all meter operation, however, this is not
an error.
When replacing the combination meter ECU, carefully avoid any contact with the IC.
Removing a battery terminal during engine operation may cause a reversed current and lead
to malfunction.
When disconnecting any connector or terminal, be sure to disconnect the battery terminal.
