DTC P0703 | Brake switch No.2 input circuit problem
--- | ---
DETECTION CONDITION | • The PCM monitors the input signal from the brake switch No.2 when the following conditions are met. If the input signal does not change while alternately accelerating and decelerating 8 times, the PCM determines that there is a brake switch No.2 input circuit malfunction. MONITORING CONDITION – Vehicle speed: decelerating more than 30 km/h {19 mph} to 0 km/h {0 mph} – Deceleration rate: more than 4 km/h {2 mph} per s Diagnostic support note • This is a continuous monitor (CCM). • The MIL illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition in two consecutive drive cycles or in one drive cycle while the DTC for the same malfunction has been stored in the PCM. • PENDING CODE is available if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition during the first drive cycle. • FREEZE FRAME DATA is available. • The DTC is stored in the PCM memory.
POSSIBLE CAUSE | • Brake switch No.2 malfunction • Connector or terminal malfunction • Open circuit in wiring harness between brake switch terminal A and PCM terminal 4P • Short to GND in wiring harness between brake switch terminal A and PCM terminal 4P • Open circuit in wiring harness between brake switch terminal C and GND • PCM malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP | INSPECTION | ACTION
--- | --- | ---
1 | VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA HAS BEEN RECORDED • Has FREEZE FRAME DATA been recorded? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Record the FREEZE FRAME DATA on the repair order, then go to the next step.
2 | VERIFY RELATED REPAIR INFORMATION AVAILABILITY • Verify related service repair information availability. • Is any related repair information available? | Yes | Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available repair information. • If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
No | Go to the next step.
3 | INSPECT BRAKE SWITCH CONNECTOR FOR POOR CONNECTION • Turn the ignition switch off. • Disconnect the brake switch connector. • Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion). • Is there any malfunction? | Yes | Repair or replace the terminal, then go to Step 9.
No | Go to the next step.
4 | INSPECT BRAKE SWITCH NO.2 GND CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT • Turn the ignition switch off. • Inspect for continuity between brake switch terminal C (wiring harness-side) and body GND. • Is there any continuity? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit, then go to Step 9.
5 | INSPECT BRAKE SWITCH NO.2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GND • Turn the ignition switch off. • Inspect for continuity between brake switch terminal A (wiring harness-side) and body GND. • Is there any continuity? | Yes | Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to GND, then go to Step 9.
No | Go to the next step.
6 | INSPECT BRAKE SWITCH NO.2 • Inspect the brake switch No.2. (See BRAKE SWITCH INSPECTION.) • Is there any malfunction? | Yes | Replace the brake switch, then go to Step 9. (See BRAKE PEDAL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
No | Go to the next step.
7 | INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR FOR POOR CONNECTION • Turn the ignition switch off. • Disconnect the PCM connector. • Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion). • Is there any malfunction? | Yes | Repair or replace the terminal, then go to Step 9.
No | Go to the next step.
8 | INSPECT BRAKE SWITCH NO.2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT • Turn the ignition switch off. • Inspect for continuity between brake switch terminal A (wiring harness-side) and PCM terminal 4P (wiring harness-side). • Is there continuity? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit, then go to the next step.
9 | VERIFY TROUBLESHOOTING OF DTC P0703 COMPLETED • Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors. • Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the WDS or equivalent. • Perform the following procedures 8 times alternately. – Drive the vehicle more than 30 km/h {19 mph}. – Decelerate to 0 km/h {0 mph} within 7 s. • Is the PENDING CODE same as DTC present? | Yes | Replace the PCM, then go to the next step. (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
No | Go to the next step.
10 | VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE • Perform the "AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE". (See AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE.) • Are any DTCs present? | Yes | Go to the applicable DTC inspection. (See DTC TABLE.)
No | DTC troubleshooting completed.
