SOURCE: Ihave code p0703 brake switch,what can I do?

P0703 (M) Brake Switch Stuck Pressed or Released Incorrect input state detected in the brake switch circuit (Changed from P1595).

The switch cost like 20 bucks. It is located on the brake pedal, it will either be in front of or behind the pedal at the top. It will have a plunger that contacts the pedal, and an electrical pig tail. usually you just twist it and pull it out kinda like a headlamp.

Hope this help (remember rated and comment this).

SOURCE: I have a Mazda 3

Yuo do not need to remove the brake pedal.
Look under the dash, on the brake pedal arm. There are one or two switches that activate brake lights and/or shift unlock. Check for loose mounting nut or a missing rubber nubber. Is the brake pedal coming all the way back up? Look on the floor for something not usually found there. These switches are adjustable and it may be as simple as adjusting them. Have a helper look for brake lights on and shift lever unlocked while you push and release the switches with your finger. Depress the brake pedal to get it out of the way. Remember to set the park brake first. Could just be a bad switch or loose connector. Check fuses and the bulbs.

SOURCE: What does P0703 brake switch circuit B mean?

sounds like you may have a bad brake light switch from the factory. Id take the one you put on and try swapping it with another one. if you have a scan tool, check and make sure the brake light switch (will probably read BOO on scan tool) reads "on" when you push it down and "off" when your foot is off of it. check voltage and ground at your connector to make sure you have a complete circuit. If it reads "on" when you disconnect the switch, replace the switch.

Check Engine light with code P0703

About $20 for a new brake light switch that can be installed in about 15 minutes or less usually, may be good insurance for a long distance drive. The code doesn't say it's a switch malfunction, the computer has seen a fault in the brake switch circuit and set the code-could just be a poor connection there.
More important, how do the brake lights work? I think I'd buy the switch or check the connector by the pedal at least. The computer may not let the cruise control work because of the code.

P0703

The PCM monitors changes in input voltage from the brake switch. If the PCM does not detect PCM terminal 1AU voltage changes while alternately accelerating and decelerating 8 times, the PCM determines that brake switch circuit has malfunctioned.

• Brake switch malfunction
• Poor connection of brake switch connector or PCM connector
• Short to power supply in wiring harness between brake switch terminal D and PCM connector terminal 1AU
Open circuit in wiring harness between brake switch terminal D and PCM connector terminal 1AU
• Open circuit in wiring harness between battery positive terminal and brake switch terminal A
• PCM malfunction

Do you have an immobilizer on this truck? Possible short circuit? Do you have added trailer wiring on this truck? Possible short circuit? Are your brake lights working normally? If not, is the brake light fuze OK?
