DTC P0719 Gas


Object Number: 802553  Size: LF
Master Electrical Component List
Automatic Transmission Controls Schematics L18
OBD II Symbol Description Notice

Circuit Description

The TCC/Stop Lamp switch indicates the brake pedal status. The normally-closed TCC/Stop Lamp switch supplies a B+ signal to the powertrain control module (PCM). The signal voltage circuit opens when the brake pedal is applied.

If the PCM detects an open TCC/Stop Lamp switch circuit during accelerations, then DTC P0719 sets. DTC P0719 is a type C DTC.

Conditions for Running the DTC

    • No VSS DTC P0502 or DTC P0503.
    • The following sequence of events occurs:
        1. The vehicle speed is less than 8 km/h (5 mph).
        2. Then the vehicle speed is 8-40 km/h (5-25 mph) for 1.7 seconds.
        3. Then the vehicle speed is greater than 40 km/h (25 mph) for 7 seconds.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

    • All conditions are met for 8 occurrences.
    • The PCM detects an open TCC/Stop Lamp switch/circuit, 0 volts, for 15 minutes.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

    • The PCM does not illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL).
    • For TCC scheduling, the PCM disregards the brake switch state if the throttle angle TP sensor is greater than 1.5 percent and the vehicle speed is greater than 32 km/h (20 mph).
    • The PCM records the operating conditions when the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met. The PCM stores this information as Failure Records.
    • The PCM stores DTC P0719 in PCM history.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

    • A scan tool clears the DTC from PCM history.
    • The PCM clears the DTC from PCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without a non-emission related diagnostic fault occurring.
    • The PCM cancels the DTC default actions when the fault no longer exists and the ignition switch is OFF long enough in order to power down the PCM.

Diagnostic Aids

Inspect the brake switch for proper mounting and operation.

Test Description

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. This step tests for TCC/Stop Lamp switch voltage to the PCM connector.

  2. This step isolates the TCC/Stop Lamp switch as a source for setting the DTC.

DTC P0719 Diesel


Object Number: 664582  Size: MF
Master Electrical Component List
Automatic Transmission Controls Schematics L65
OBD II Symbol Description Notice

Circuit Description

The normally open TCC/Stop Lamp switch indicates brake pedal status to the powertrain control module (PCM). Applying the brake pedal closes the switch, supplying voltage to the PCM. Releasing the brake pedal interrupts voltage to the PCM.

If the PCM detects an open TCC/Stop Lamp switch, stuck OFF, during decelerations, then DTC P0719 sets. DTC P0719 is a type C DTC.

Conditions for Running the DTC

    • No VSS sensor DTC P0722 or P0723.
    • The following sequence of events occur:
        1. The vehicle speed is greater than 32 km/h (20 mph) for 6 seconds.
        2. Then the vehicle speed is 8-32 km/h (5-20 mph) for 3 seconds.
        3. Then the vehicle speed is less than 8 km/h (5 mph).
        4. DTC P0719 has not passed.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

    • All conditions are met for ten occurrences.
    • The PCM detects a closed TCC/Stop Lamp switch/circuit, 0 volts.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

    • The PCM does not illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL).
    • The PCM records the operating conditions when the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met. The PCM stores this information as Failure Records.
    • The PCM stores DTC P0719 in PCM history.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

    • A scan tool clears the DTC from PCM history.
    • The PCM clears the DTC from PCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without a non-emission related diagnostic fault occurring.
    • The PCM cancels the DTC default actions when the fault no longer exists and the ignition switch is OFF long enough in order to power down the PCM.

Diagnostic Aids

    • Ask about the driving habits of the customer and any unusual driving conditions he or she might have, such as stop and go traffic or expressway driving.
    • A short in the stop lamp circuit will cause the fuse to open.
    • Inspect the TCC/Stop Lamp switch for proper mounting and operation.

Test Description

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. This step isolates the TCC/Stop Lamp switch as a source for setting the DTC.

  2. This step tests for a short to ground between the fuse and the TCC/Stop Lamp switch.

  3. This step tests for a short to ground in circuit 17.

  4. This step removes the PCM from circuit 17 as the source of a short to ground.
