IGN I | P0562 | P0562 | -- | -- |
Ground | -- | P0562 | -- | -- |
The engine control module (ECM) monitors the system voltage to ensure that the voltage stays within the proper range. Damage to components, and incorrect data may occur when the voltage is out of range.
• | The vehicle speed is above 8 km/h (5 mph). |
• | The system voltage is between 9.5-18 V. |
The ECM detects a system voltage below 10 V for 5 seconds.
DTC P0562 is a C type DTC.
DTC P0562 is a C type DTC.
• | A low voltage DTC in multiple modules indicates a concern in the charging system. |
• | A low voltage value in multiple modules indicates a concern in the charging system. |
• | Inspect the ECM ground connection , to verify that it is clean tight. |

• | 4.6L terminal 73 X2. |
• | 4.6L terminal 73 X3. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuits for an open/high resistance. |
• | 3.6L terminal 5 and terminal 54-56 X2 |
• | 4.6L terminal 19 and terminal 20 X1 |
• | 4.6L terminal 13 and terminal 28 X2 |
⇒ | If the test lamp did not illuminate , test the Ignition circuits for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. |
