DESCRIPTION
When the vehicle is being driven, depressing the accelerator pedal sensor assembly and brake pedal will activate the brake override system to restrict engine output. The conditions for activating the brake override system as well as the items that are controlled are explained below.
Activation Conditions:NOTICE:
The vehicle may not enter the brake override system control due to the relation of the accelerator pedal angle and the vehicle's speed.
HINT:
During control, the Accelerator Position value in the Data List will be lower than normal.
HINT:
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Inspection MethodExample:
Drive at 10 km/h (6.25 mph), depress the accelerator pedal by 1/2 to 3/4 and keep it in that position. Under these conditions, if the engine speed decreases to 1000 rpm when the brake pedal is depressed, then the brake override system has been activated.
CAUTION:
When carrying out the inspection, use a place where you are able to carry it out safely and also pay close attention to your surroundings.
Also, when driving make absolutely sure that all road traffic laws, such as speed limits, are observed.

NOTICE:
The brake override system restricts engine output if the brake pedal is depressed when driving with the accelerator pedal depressed. If a customer reports experiencing loss of torque after the accelerator and brake pedals have both been intentionally depressed, explain to the customer that this is not a malfunction, and that the customer should avoid depressing both the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time.
Example: While operating the accelerator pedal, the customer uses their left foot to operate the brake pedal.
PROCEDURE
1. | CHECK DTC OUTPUT |
(a) Perform the Health Check using the GTS.
(b) Check the DTCs.
Result | Proceed to |
---|---|
DTCs are not output | A |
DTCs are output | B |
B | GO TO DTC CHART |
|
2. | READ VALUE USING GTS (MASTER CYLINDER SENSOR 1) |
(a) Start the engine.
(b) Read the value displayed on the GTS.
Chassis > Brake > Data List Tester Display |
---|
Master Cylinder Sensor 1 |
Standard:
-1.00 to 0.00 MPa (Brake pedal released).
(c) Check that the brake fluid pressure value of the "Master Cylinder Sensor 1" observed on the GTS changes when the brake pedal is depressed.
OK:
When the pedal is depressed, the pressure displayed on the GTS increases.
NG | CHECK BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY |
|
3. | READ VALUE USING GTS (STOP LIGHT SW) |
(a) Check the Data List indication when the brake pedal is depressed and released.
Powertrain > Engine > Data List Tester Display |
---|
Stop Light SW |
OK:
GTS Display | Condition | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
Stop Light SW | Brake pedal released | OFF |
Brake pedal depressed | ON |
NG | INSPECT STOP LIGHT SWITCH ASSEMBLY |
|
4. | INSPECT BRAKE PEDAL SUPPORT ASSEMBLY |
(a) Inspect and adjust the brake pedal support assembly.
HINT:
If the stop light switch turns ON too late, the start of brake override system control may be delayed; if it turns ON too soon, brake override system control may begin too early, so conduct inspection of the brake pedal support assembly and stop light switch assembly.
NG | REPAIR OR REPLACE BRAKE PEDAL SUPPORT ASSEMBLY |
|
5. | READ VALUE USING GTS (ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR) |
(a) Read the value displayed on the GTS.
Powertrain > Engine > Data List Tester Display |
---|
Accelerator Position Sensor No.1 Voltage % |
Accelerator Position Sensor No.2 Voltage % |
Standard:
GTS Display | Condition | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
Accelerator Position Sensor No.1 Voltage % | Accelerator Pedal Released → Depressed → Released | Values smoothly change following accelerator pedal operation |
Accelerator Position Sensor No.2 Voltage % |
HINT:
For numerical values of Accelerator Position Sensor No.1 Voltage % and Accelerator Position Sensor No.2 Voltage %, refer to the Data List.

NG | REPLACE ACCELERATOR PEDAL SENSOR ASSEMBLY |
|
6. | READ VALUE USING GTS (VEHICLE SPEED) |
(a) Start the engine.
(b) Read the value displayed on the GTS.
Powertrain > Engine > Data List Tester Display |
---|
Vehicle Speed |
Standard:
GTS Display | Condition | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
Vehicle Speed | Vehicle stopped, engine running | 0 km/h (0 mph) |
Vehicle being driven at constant speed between 16.1 to 64.4 km/h (10 to 40 mph) | No large fluctuations when driving at a constant speed |
CAUTION:
When performing a drive test, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.
HINT:
Data can be captured relatively easily by using the snapshot function in the Data List. Confirm the data after performing the drive test.
NG | GO TO METER / GAUGE SYSTEM (SPEED SIGNAL CIRCUIT) |
|
7. | READ VALUE USING GTS (FR, FL, RR, RL WHEEL SPEED) |
(a) Start the engine.
(b) Read the value displayed on the GTS.
Chassis > Brake > Data List Tester Display |
---|
FR Wheel Speed |
FL Wheel Speed |
RR Wheel Speed |
RL Wheel Speed |
Standard:
GTS Display | Condition | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
FR Wheel Speed FL Wheel Speed RR Wheel Speed RL Wheel Speed | Vehicle stopped, engine running | 0 km/h (0 mph) |
Vehicle being driven at constant speed between 16.1 to 64.4 km/h (10 to 40 mph) | No large fluctuations when driving at a constant speed |
CAUTION:
When performing a drive test, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.
HINT:
Data can be captured relatively easily by using the snapshot function in the Data List. Confirm the data after performing the drive test.
OK | END |
NG | INSPECT FRONT OR REAR SPEED SENSOR |
Automatic transaxle: Shift the selector lever to the P position and set the parking brake.
Press the push button start to turn off the engine. The ignition position is off.
