Diagnostic Procedures

  1. Perform POWERTRAIN ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM CHECK . Read and record FREEZE FRAME and/or FAIL RECORDS data for each DTC set. After performing OBD system check, go to next step.
  2. Turn ignition off. Disconnect PCM harness connector. Turn ignition on. Using a DVOM, check voltage between engine ground and PCM harness connector cruise inhibit driver circuit. If battery voltage is present, go to next step. If battery voltage is not present, go to step 6).
  3. Using DVOM in 10-amp scale, check current between engine ground and cruise inhibit driver circuit for 2 minutes. If current remains between .001-.500 amp, go to step 11). If current does not remain between .001-.500 amp, go to next step.
  4. Turn ignition off. With PCM connectors disconnected, disconnect cruise inhibit connector. Turn ignition on. Using DVOM, check voltage between engine ground and Servo Motor Cruise Control (SMCC) module cruise inhibit driver circuit. If voltage reading is zero volts, go to step 10). If voltage reading is not zero volts, go to next step.
  5. Locate and repair short to voltage in cruise inhibit driver circuit. After repairs, go to step 16).
  6. Check SMCC module ignition feed fuse. If fuse is blown, go to next step. If fuse is okay, go to step 8).
  7. Locate and repair short to ground in SMCC module ignition feed circuit. Replace fuse. After repairs, go to step 16).
  8. Disconnect SMCC module connector. Turn ignition on. Check voltage between engine ground and SMCC module ignition feed circuit. If battery voltage is present, go to next step. If battery voltage is not present, go to step 13).
  9. Check cruise inhibit driver circuit for open or short to ground. Repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step 16). If circuit is okay, go to next step.
  10. Check cruise inhibit driver and ignition feed circuits for faulty connection at SMCC module and PCM. Repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step 16). If connection is okay, go to step 14).
  11. Turn ignition off. Reconnect PCM connector. Disconnect SMCC module connector. Turn ignition on. Connect a test light between SMCC module harness connector cruise inhibit driver and ignition feed circuits. Using scan tool, cycle cruise inhibit output on and off. If test light flashes on and off, see DIAGNOSTIC AIDS. If test light does not flash on and off, go to next step.
  12. Check cruise inhibit driver circuit for faulty connection at PCM. Repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step 16). If connection is okay, go to step 15).
  13. Locate and repair open SMCC module ignition feed circuit. After repairs, go to step 16).
  14. Replace SMCC module. After replacing module, go to step 16).
  15. Replace PCM. Program replacement PCM using required equipment. After replacing PCM, go to next step.
  16. Using scan tool, read and record FAIL RECORDS DATA, and clear DTCs. Operate vehicle within conditions noted in FAIL RECORDS data. Using scan tool, select SPECIFIC DTC INFO for this DTC. If scan tool displays that this DTC FAILED THIS IGN, return to step 2). If scan tool does not display that this DTC FAILED THIS IGN, repair is complete.
