Brake Pedal Position (BPP) Switch Adjustment

NOTICE: Do not press the brake pedal when installing or removing the brake pedal position switch or damage to the brake pedal-mounted switches can occur.

  1. Inspect all brake pedal position switches and brake pedal assembly to verify there is no brake pedal pressure unintentionally applied due to incorrect brake pedal position switch or brake pedal installation. Correct any concerns before proceeding to the next step.
  1. Confirm that all brake pedal and bracket assembly fasteners are correctly tightened.
  1. Using the Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS) scan tool, select DataLogger->Chassis->Braking->Brake Switch Parameters.

  1. NOTE: Using the scan tool record function makes it easier to observe the brake pressure sensor readings.

    Set the ignition to ON.
  1. Slowly apply the brake pedal to generate the pressure graph for the BPS (brake pressure sensor) PID . The rate of brake pedal apply must not exceed 5 psi per second as indicated by the scan tool.
  1. Record the initial value of the BPS PID when BRAKE_LAMP and CRUISE_CANCL change from OFF to ON.
  1. If BRAKE_LAMP and CRUISE_CANCL transition to ON before the BPS PID reads 44 psi or less, the brake pedal position switch is correctly installed.
  1. If BRAKE_LAMP and CRUISE_CANCL transition to ON after the BPS PID reads greater than 44 psi, replace the stoplamp switch and cruise control deactivation switch (if equipped). Clear all Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and repeat Steps 3-6 to verify that the BRAKE_LAMP and CRUISE_CANCL transition to ON before the BPS PID reads 44 psi or less.
