Circuit Description

The cruise Resume/Accel switch is an input to the fuel control portion of the PCM. These inputs allow the PCM to control and hold a previously set speed. Cruise Resume/Accel switch sends ignition voltage to the PCM when the switch is closed (ON).

Conditions for Running the DTC

    • The PCM performs this DTC diagnostic continuously.
    • The cruise control ON/OFF switch is in the OFF position.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

    • Ignition voltage on resume signal circuit.
    • All of the diagnostic set conditions met for 2 seconds.

or

    • The resume switch is ON for longer than 300 seconds.
    • All of the diagnostic set conditions met for 2 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

    • The PCM disallows all cruise control inputs.
    • TCC shift schedules may be affected.
    •  The PCM will not illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL).
    • The PCM records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. This information stores in the Failure Records.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

    • A History DTC will clear when forty consecutive warm-up cycles, if this or any other emission related diagnostic does not report any failures.
    • Use of a scan tool

Diagnostic Aids

Important: Remove any debris from the PCM module connector surfaces before servicing the PCM module. Inspect the PCM module connector gaskets when diagnosing/replacing the module. Ensure that the gaskets are installed correctly. The gaskets prevent contaminate intrusion into the PCM module.

Check for a resume/accel switch stuck in the engage position or the signal circuit is shorted to voltage.
