NOTESSpecial notes: 
If the fault appears while the vehicle is being driven on a steep gradient, during a very 
tight turn or while the vehicle is being transported on a lorry, train, boat etc., with the 
engine running, clear the fault and test drive, if possible, to check that the fault does 
not return.
Conditions for applying fault finding procedures to stored faults: 
The fault is declared present after a road test.
Check that component 1175 is fitted and attached correctly (the arrow indicating the front of the vehicle).
Check the conformity of the tyres (see MR 411, Mechanical, 35A, Wheels and tyres, Tyres: Identification 
and Tyre pressure, Identification).
Check the axle assembly geometry (see MR 411, Mechanical, Chassis, Front axle adjustment).
Calibrate component 583 using command VP003 Steering wheel angle sensor (see Configurations 
and programming).
Clear the ESP sensor offsets using command RZ011 Sensor offset.
Re-establish dialogue with the ABS/ESP computer, and if no other fault is to be dealt with, clear the computer fault 
memory.
Carry out a road test.
If the fault is still present, contact the Techline.

If the status ET030 "Automatic brake lights" is "PROHIBITED":
inhibit or authorise the automatic brake lights (depending on the country's legislation) 
using command VP021 Automatic brake light inhibition or VP022 Automatic brake 
light authorisation.
Check the condition and position of fuse F5 (15 A) in the passenger compartment 
fuse box (see 81C, Fuse box).
Connector of components 1281, 1094 and intermediate union R107 disconnected,
Check the continuity of connection 4GJ between component 1281 and intermediate 
union R107.
Check the continuity of connection 4GJ between intermediate union R107 
and component 1094.
If the connections are faulty (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical wiring repair,

STOREDBRAKE LIGHT SWITCH CIRCUIT
1.DEF: Inconsistency
2.DEF: Permanent high signal
NOTESConditions for applying the fault finding procedure to stored faults:
Clear the stored fault, carry out a road test at a speed of > 36 mph (60 km/h) and test 
the brakes using ABS. 
Use the interpretation of the fault if it recurs.
Special notes:
The fault is detected if the computer does not detect a brake lights switch status change 
for 4 acceleration/braking cycles and/or the contact is closed for over 6 minutes with 
the vehicle speed above 24 mph (40 km/h).
Using the diagnostic tool, check on the status screen that ET017 Brake pedal recognises the correct pressed 
and released positions of the brake pedal.
If the correct pedal position is not displayed, use the interpretation of ET017 Brake pedal.
