CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
NOTICE:
- Before disconnecting connectors or fuses, turn the power switch off and wait 20 seconds or more.
- When the electric parking brake switch (integration control and panel assembly) is pushed and held for 1 second or more without being pushed fully to the release side, one of the 2 linked contacts may turn on while the other one turns off causing this DTC to be stored (system is not malfunctioning).
- When replacing the parking brake ECU assembly, operate the electric parking brake switch (integration control and panel assembly), as the parking brake indicator light (red) blinks when the power switch is first turned on (IG).
