Description and Operation

Kia EV6. Stop lamp switch

Operation principle of inductive non-contact switch

1.Use the high frequency magnetic field and the induced current that are generated by oscillation (to approved voltage) of coil in switch.

2.The eddy current is generated on surface of metal by self inductance effect if there is metal in high frequency magnetic field.

3.The eddy current that is generated decreases the high frequency magnetic field as much as amount of generated by disturbing the switch's magnetic flux.

4.ON- OFF by determining whether high voltage magnetic field decreases or not(calculate the voltage difference by length between metal and coil).

Installation

1.Install in the reverse order of removal.

2.Check the stop lamp switch clearance.(Refer to Stop Lamp Switch - "Inspection")

Clearance inspection

1.Check the stop lamp switch clearance (A).

Stop lamp switch clearance (A) : 1.0 - 2.0 mm (0.04 - 0.08 in.)

Kia EV6. Stop lamp switch

2.If the clearance exceeds the standard, remove the stop lamp switch and check for damage to surrounding parts such as mounting clips.(Refer to Brake System - "Stop Lamp Switch")

3.If there is no damage, install the stop lamp switch and recheck the clearance.

Component Inspection

1.Inspect the removed stop lamp switch following procedures below.

(1)Confirm a normal connection on component side.

– A confirmation can be made to see if the connector has been secured properly and if a connection mark is present.
