Check Engine Light On When Brakes Applied
Hi Everyone,
I've got a 92 SC400.
I've not seen my scenario anywhere yet. I hope someone can identify with my problem.
When I turn the key to the on position only(no start), my CEL does not come on until I apply pressure to the brake pedal, then the CEL comes on. When I release the brake pedal, the CEL goes off. It does this as many times as I apply the brakes. Any thoughts to what is going on? My trac light is also on.

Biddles, Thank you for your reply. I am under the impression that to read a code, the Check Engine Light must come on. Mine does not until I apply the brakes with Ignition Switch turned on only. Maybe it would pull the code(s) with my brake pedal applied since the CEL is then on.
