Circuit Description
The engine control module (ECM) monitors the voltage supplied on the feedback circuit of the Engine Controls Ignition Relay or the Main Relay. Voltage that is out of range will cause incorrect input readings from the engine components connected to the relay. If the ECM detects voltage present on the feedback circuit of the Main Relay when the ignition is turned OFF, this DTC sets.
DTC Descriptor
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC P0563 System Voltage High
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | The ignition is ON. |
| • | DTC P0563 runs continuously once the above conditions are met. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
| • | The ECM detects the ignition voltage is more than 16 volts. |
| • | Tthe ECM detects voltage on the feedback circuit of the Main Relay is more than 16 volts for 7.6 seconds. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will not illuminate. |
| • | The ECM will store conditions which were present when the DTC was set as Failure Records data only. |
| • | This information will not be stored in the Freeze Frame data. |
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
| • | A history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles without a fault. |
| • | DTCs can be cleared by using the scan tool. |
| • | Disconnect the ECM battery feed for more than 10 seconds. |
Diagnostic Aids
| • | For an intermittent condition, refer to Intermittent Conditions . |
| • | The following table illustrates the MAIN Relay terminal location in the underhood fuse block: |

Does DTC P0563 set? | -- | Go to Step 5 | Go to Step 4 |
4 |
Did the DTC fail this ignition? | -- | Go to Step 5 | Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems |
5 |
Does the test lamp illuminate? | -- | Go to Step 6 | Go to Step 7 |
6 | Test all circuits that have voltage supplied by theMain Relay including the feedback circuit of the relay for a short to voltage. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition? | -- | Go to Step 11 | Go to Step 8 |
7 | Test for shorted terminals or poor connection atMain Relay. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition? | -- | Go to Step 11 | Go to Step 9 |
8 | Test for shorted terminals or poor connection at the harness connector of the ECM. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition? | -- | Go to Step 11 | Go to Step 10 |
9 | Replace the Main Relay. Did you complete the replacement? | -- | Go to Step 11 | -- |
10 | Replace the ECM. Refer to Engine Control Module Replacement in Engine Controls - 0.8L (LBF) or Engine Control Module Replacement in Engine Controls - 1.0L (L11) Did you complete the replacement? | -- | Go to Step 11 | -- |
11 |
Did the DTC fail this ignition? | -- | Go to Step 2 | Go to Step 12 |
12 | Observe the Capture Info with a scan tool. Are there any DTCs that have not been diagnosed? | -- | Go to Diagnostic System Check - Engine Controls in Engine Controls - 0.8L (L11) or Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List in Engine Controls - 1.0L (L11) | System OK |
