DTC P0719 V6

DTC Description

This diagnostic procedure supports DTC P0719 Brake Switch Circuit High Voltage.

Circuit Description

The transmission control module (TCM) has a direct input from the stop lamp switch assembly. When the brake pedal is pressed, 12 V is supplied to the TCM through connector A112-X1 pin 42.

When the TCM detects a voltage on the stop lamp switch signal circuit during acceleration, then DTC P0719 sets. DTC P0719 is a type C DTC.

Refer to Automatic Transmission Controls Schematics , Automatic Transmission Inline 20-Way Connector End View, Automatic Transmission Internal Connector End Views , Automatic Transmission Control Module Connector End Views , and Automatic Transmission Related Connector End Views to aid in diagnosis.

Conditions for Running the DTC
    • No DTCs P0722, P0723 or P0724.
    • The vehicle speed is 8-40 km/h for 6 seconds, then greater than 40 km/h for 7 seconds.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The TCM detects voltage on the stop lamp switch signal circuit during acceleration.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
    • The TCM does not request the engine control module (ECM) to illuminate the check powertrain icon.
    • The TCM records the operating conditions when the conditions for setting the DTC are met. The TCM records this information as a Failure Record.
    • The TCM stores DTC P0719 in TCM history.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC
    • The TCM clears the DTC from TCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without a non-emission related diagnostic fault occurring.
    • Tech 2 can clear the DTC.

Diagnostic Aids
    • Verify the brake pedal position sensor is adjusted properly, refer to Stop Lamp Switch Testing.
    • Test drive the vehicle if a switch or circuit condition cannot be located. An intermittent condition may be duplicated during a test drive.
    • Application of the brake pedal while accelerating may cause this DTC to set.
