Diagnosis And Testing - Speed Control Switch
To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.
The following test confirms only correct speed control switch functions. It does not test or confirm any of the Local Interface Network (LIN) slave node inputs, outputs or functions. LIN slave node testing requires the use of a diagnostic scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.
- Remove the speed control switch pod from the steering wheel. Refer to SWITCH, SPEED CONTROL, REMOVAL .
- Disconnect the steering wheel wire harness connector from the back of the speed control switch pod.
- Using an ohmmeter, test the resistance between the terminals of the switch as shown in the Speed Control Switch Tests table.

14 and 15 (15.4 kOhms)*All resistance values are plus or minus 5%. Pins 13 and 14 are the (V72) S/C Signal 2 and (V937) S/C Switch Ground circuits Pins 13 and 14 are the (V71) S/C Signal 1 and (V937) S/C Switch Ground circuits - If the switch fails any of the tests, replace the ineffective speed control switch pod as required.
SPEED CONTROL SWITCH VOLTAGE VALUES:
Do not probe the PCM harness connectors. Probing the PCM harness connectors will damage the PCM terminals resulting in poor terminal to pin connection. Install the PCM Pinout Box and PCM Pinout Box Adapter to perform diagnosis.
