The catalytic converter has oxygen sensors before and after it. When warm and in closed-loop mode, the upstream O2 sensor reading should fluctuate, while downstream should remain steady.
Repair Solution:
Brake switch circuit concerns may involve open or shorted BPP circuits, damaged switches, or misadjustment. Verify stoplight function and follow proper self-test procedures per service manual.
Technical Notes:
