Well I doubt that code would cause your symptom.
Code 719 is when the signal from the brake switch is lower than normal. You would check the power in and out of the switch to look for that problem.
But the engine stopping could be something else.

Engines cuts off completely when DRIVE or REVERSE is engaged. Engine idles in P or N

Does engine stumble and idle too low and die? This can be tune up issues, dirty idle air motor, dirty or sticking EGR, bad coolant temp sensor, clogged cat converter or muffler, bad O2 sensor, weak coil of bad ignition module, and more! You need diagnostic tests and readings.

1991 Cadillac DeVille (has 110,000 miles on it) suddenly dies while driving. Starts and idles fine, but shuts off after driving only 1-2 blocks. What's wrong and how do we fix it?

There are many things that can contribute to this problem. It sounds like it may be ignition related. Possibly an ignition control module or ignition coil. The check engine light coming on while driving is the key to finding the problem. The light comes on when the computer finds a problem and will then store it in its memory. Have the codes checked for what the computer has found to be at fault and with a little diagnostics, should lead you to the problem

My 2003 eclipse will idle fine but when put in reverse or drive it wants to die.

You should first get the engine scanned for trouble codes.
Try a new fuel filter, or have the fuel pressure tested. If fuel pressure is good, try some injector cleaner. If still no help, time for a tune-up with new plugs and wires, filters, pcv valve. If still no help, possibly the catalytic converter may be plugging up, or your egr valve needs cleaning. Could be a lot of things-you just have to start eliminating one by one. short of a shop running diagnostics and testing to find the problem. Good luck.

2001 Honda Passport, Engine light was on. Also acts like it wants to stop the first time I start it each day and has stopped on me a few times before I put in drive or reverse. EGR valve, ports, and...

Sorry for the delay,having my shoulder rebuilt. The gaskets between the upper &lower plenum are a steel/plastic assembly,known to crack and cause a vacuum leak. This will cause a hard start cold and a higher than normal idle when warm.Usually by the time you notice these things the check engine light is on, indicating the idle speed is out of range.The intake can be separated,just enough,to replace the gaskets without removing fuel lines etc.find an experienced Isuzu or Honda technician..It should be about 1.5-2 hour job

2002 gmc sierra, 3500, 8.1, flashing mil, dies, starts rough idle


First buy the alldata subscription for your unit and read the engine power management system, once you understand this then you will see you don't need a scanner, you can code out if it's a engine problem then read the codes itself with a paper clip. Then once you get the codes post them here to get a better answer, the more information you can provide the better the answer you will get. A digital test meter will be better than a scanner. Without understanding the engine management system you won't be able to fix it without replacing a lot of parts.

Idle air control

all the sudden the check engine light came on and it started to idle funny and dying at stops. I had a diagnostic done on it and changed out the idle air control valve but it doent seem any different. and the check engine light is still throwing the same code. we adjusted the idle up so i could drive it with out it dying but it is still acting funny.
