Diagnostic Test

1. CHECKING THE ECM FOR DTC'S

Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, read the ECM DTCs.

Are there any ECM DTCs present?

Yes

Refer to symptom list for problems related to the ECM DTC.

Perform the ECM Verification Test Ver. 1 (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).

Go To2

2. CHECKING CRUISE SWITCHES

Start the engine.
With the scan tool, read the S/C Switch #1 volts.
Observe the cruise switch volts on the scan tool while pressing and holding each cruise button separately.

NOTE: Pressing each cruise button should result in the following voltages: ON/OFF 0.78v - 0.98, SET 3.26 - 3.46v, RESUME/ACCEL 3.93 - 4.13v, CANCEL 1.67 - 1.87v, COAST 2.64 - 2.84v, No Button Pressed 4.44 - 4.64v

With the scan tool, read the S/C Switch #2 volts.
Observe the cruise switch volts on the scan tool while pressing and holding each cruise button separately.

NOTE: Pressing each cruise button should result in the following voltages: ON/OFF 3.62 - 3.82v, SET 1.25 - 1.45v, RESUME/ACCEL 2.13 - 2.33v, CANCEL 2.93 - 3.13v, COAST 0.78 - 0.98v, No Button Pressed 4.44 - 4.64v

Does each switch provide the correct voltage?

Yes

Go To 3

Check S/C Switch signal and Ground circuits. If o.k., replace the S/C Switches.
Perform the ECM Verification Test Ver. 1 (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).

3. VERIFY S/C OPERATION

NOTE: Prior to testing the speed control operation, ensure the Learn Speed Control feature has been performed on the ECM.

Test drive the vehicle above 60 km/h (35 MPH).
Attempt to Set the Speed Control.

Does the Speed Control function properly?

Yes

Test Complete.

Go To 4

4. VSS SIGNAL

With the scan tool, read Vehicle Speed.
Have an assistant drive the vehicle while you are observing the Vehicle Speed on the scan tool.
While observing vehicle speed on the scan tool, note any rapid changes (signal dropouts) in the reading that do not correspond with actual vehicle speed.

Is the scan tool displaying an accurate vehicle speed?

Yes

Go To 5

Refer to symptom list for problems related to the Vehicle Speed Sensor.
Perform the ECM Verification Test Ver. 1 (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).

5. BRAKE SWITCH SIGNAL

With the scan tool in Inputs/Outputs, read the Primary and Secondary brake switch states while pressing and releasing the Brake Pedal several times.

Did the scan tool indicate the correct brake pedal state when pressing and releasing the Brake Pedal?

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

No

Refer to symptom list for problems related to Brake Switch Signal.
Perform the ECM Verification Test Ver. 1 (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
