Toyota CH-R Service Manual: Brake Warning Light Remains ON

Toyota CH-R Service Manual / Brake Control / Dynamic Control Systems / Vehicle Stability Control System / Brake Warning Light Remains ON

DESCRIPTION

The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) is connected to the combination meter assembly via CAN communication.

If any of the following is detected, the brake system warning light (red indicator) remains on:

  • The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector is disconnected from the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly).
  • The brake fluid level is insufficient.
  • The vacuum inside the brake booster decreases. (w/ Vacuum Warning Switch)
  • EBD operation is not possible.
