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.
• | 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. |
• | All conditions are met for 8 occurrences. |
• | The PCM detects an open TCC/Stop Lamp switch/circuit, 0 volts, for 15 minutes. |
• | 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. |
• | 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. |
Inspect the brake switch for proper mounting and operation.

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.
