Circuit/System Description

The cruise control resume/accel switch is an input to the powertrain control module (PCM)/engine control module (ECM). The PCM/ECM uses 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 PCM/ECM detects a voltage signal on the cruise control resume/accel switch signal circuit when the switch is applied. This DTC sets if the PCM/ECM senses voltage on the cruise control resume/accel switch signal circuit for longer than 90 seconds.

Conditions for Running the DTC

    • The ignition is ON.
    • The cruise control On/Off switch is ON.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The PCM/ECM detects the resume/accel switch is ON for longer than 90 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

    • The PCM/ECM stores the DTC information into memory when the diagnostic runs and fails.
    • The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will not illuminate.
    • The PCM/ECM records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The PCM/ECM stores this information in the Failure Records.
    • The cruise control system is disabled.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

    • The DTC becomes history when the conditions for setting the DTC are no longer present.
    • The history DTC clears after 50 malfunction-free warm-up cycles.
    • The PCM/ECM receives a clear code command from the scan tool.

Diagnostic Aids

    • Ensure that the resume/accel switch is not stuck or sticking in the engaged position.
    • For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections.

Scan Tool Data List

Circuit/System Verification

Ignition ON, cruise control On/Off switch ON, observe the scan tool Cruise Resume/Accel. Switch while toggling the resume/accel switch from R/A to On. The reading should change between On and Off.

Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the multifunction switch.
  2. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool Cruise Resume/Accel. Switch parameter reads Off.
  3. If the scan tool parameter reads On, test the cruise control resume/accel switch signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the PCM/ECM.
  4. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the multifunction switch.

Component Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the multifunction switch.
  2. Cruise control On/Off switch ON, test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal A and signal circuit terminal D.
  3. If not the specified value, replace the multifunction switch.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
