1. Cruise Control Malfunction

2. Cruise Control Resume/Accel Malfunction

Circuit Description

The cruise control resume/accel switch is an input to the engine control module (ECM). The ECM monitors the cruise control resume/accel switch signal circuit in order to detect when the driver has requested to accelerate the set vehicle speed or to resume the cruise control system. The ECM module detects a voltage signal on the cruise control resume/accel switch signal circuit when the switch is applied. This DTC sets if the ECM detects that voltage is present on the cruise control resume/accel switch signal circuit for longer than 60 seconds.

Conditions for Running the DTC

    • The ignition is ON.
    • The cruise control switch is ON.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The ECM detects that the resume/accel switch circuit is active for longer than 60 seconds.

Actions Taken When the DTC Sets

    • The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will not illuminate.
    • The cruise control system is disabled.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

    • The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists.
    • A history DTC will clear after 40 malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred.

Circuit/System Verification

Engine ON, observe the scan tool Cruise Control Switch parameter while pressing each of the cruise control switches. The parameter should toggle between ON, OFF, Resume, Set, as the applicable switch is pressed.

Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the turn signal/multifunction switch.
  2. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool Resume/Accel. Switch parameter displays Inactive.
  3. If the parameter displays Active, test the signal circuit terminal 28 for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM module.
  4. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the turn signal/multifunction switch.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
