The powertrain control module (PCM) continuously monitors the system voltage. The PCM monitors the system voltage to make sure that the voltage stays within the proper range. If the PCM detects an excessively high system voltage, DTC P0563 will set. A high voltage condition may cause a stalling condition or other driveability concerns.
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC P0563 System Voltage High
• | The engine run time is more than 20 seconds. |
• | The engine is running above 1,200 RPM. |
• | Vehicle speed is above 8 km/h (5 mph). |
Ignition 1 voltage sensor is more than 2.0V.
• | The PCM stores DTC P0563 in the PCM memory when the diagnostic runs and fails. |
• | The PCM will record the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The PCM stores this information in Failure Records. |
• | The PCM disables most outputs. |
• | The transmission defaults to a predetermined gear. |
• | The torque converter clutch (TCC) operation is inhibited. |
• | The instrument panel cluster (IPC) displays a message. |
• | The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will not illuminate. |
• | The Conditions for Setting the DTC are no longer present. |
• | A history DTC will clear after 40 malfunction free ignition cycles. |
• | The PCM receives the clear code command from the scan tool. |
