Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, monitor the S/C Switch signal voltages.
Press each button while noting the voltage readings for each circuit.

Are the S/C Switch voltages within the ranges specified in the table when each button is pressed?

Yes
Refer to the *CHECKING FOR AN INTERMITTENT DTC Diagnostic Procedure.
(Refer to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING)

No

2. (V72) S/C SWITCH 2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT VOLTAGE



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Speed Control Switch harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Measure the voltage of the (V72) S/C Switch 2 Signal Circuit at the Speed Control Switch.

Select the appropriate voltage reading.

4.5 to 5.5 volts


Below 4.5 volts


Above 5.5 volts

3. (V937) S/C SWITCH GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN CIRCUIT OR HIGH RESISTANCE



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.
Measure the resistance of the (V937) S/C Switch Ground circuit between the Speed Control Switch harness connector and the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.

Is the resistance below 10.0 ohms?

Yes


No

4. (V937) S/C SWITCH GROUND CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE



Turn the ignition off.
Remove the Main Relay.
Connect a jumper wire between cavity B7 and cavity B9 of the Main Relay connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Measure the voltage of the (V937) S/C Switch Ground circuit.

Is there any voltage present?

Yes


No

5. S/C SWITCH



Turn the ignition off.
Connect the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, monitor the S/C Switch Voltage.
While monitoring the scan tool, connect a jumper wire between the (V72) S/C Switch 2 Signal circuit and the (V937) S/C Switch Ground circuit in the S/C Switch harness connector.

Does the scan tool display below 0.1 volt with the jumper wire in place?

Yes


No

6. (V72) S/C SWITCH 2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.
Measure the resistance of the (V72) S/C Switch 2 Signal circuit between the Speed Control Switch harness connector and the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.

Is the resistance below 10.0 ohms?

Yes


No

7. (V72) S/C SWITCH 2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND



Measure the resistance between ground and the (V72) S/C Switch 2 Signal circuit.

Is the resistance above 1000 ohms?

Yes


No

8. (V72) S/C SWITCH 2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.
Remove the Main Relay.
Connect a jumper wire between cavity B7 and cavity B9 of the Main Relay connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Measure the voltage of the (V72) S/C Switch 2 Signal circuit.

Is there any voltage present?

Yes


No

9. ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM)

Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Speed Control Switch and the Engine Control Module (ECM).
Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires.
Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals.
Refer to any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply.

Were any problems found?

Yes


No
