PINPOINT TEST C : The Cruise Control Switch Is Inoperative Or Does Not Operate Correctly

  1. C1 CHECK THE CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH

    • Ignition ON.
    • Using a scan tool, view the SCCM PIDs.
    • Press each cruise control switch while monitoring the cruise control switch PID SCCS.
      Cruise Control Switch SCCS PID Value
      - None pressed
      RES RESUME
      CNCL CANCEL
      ON/OFF (pressed up) On
      ON/OFF (pressed down) Off
      SET (pressed up) SET/+
      SET (pressed down) SET/-

    Does the PID value agree with the switch position? 

    Yes  GO to  C5.
    No  If only one switch value does not display the correct PID value, INSTALL a new LH steering wheel switch. REFER to Steering Column Switches . Otherwise, GO to  C2.
  2. C2 CHECK FOR VOLTAGE TO THE CRUISE CONTROL SWITCHES

    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: LH Steering Wheel Switch.
    • Ignition ON.

    Are the voltages approximately 5 volts? 

    Yes  INSTALL a new LH steering wheel switch. REFER to Steering Column Switches .
    No  GO to  C3.
  3. C3 CHECK FOR VOLTAGE TO THE CLOCKSPRING

    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: Clockspring C218B.
    • Ignition ON.
    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead

    No  GO to  C4.
  4. C4 CHECK FOR VOLTAGE AT THE SCCM

    • Ignition OFF.
    • Ignition ON.
    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead

    Are the voltages approximately 5 volts? 

    Yes  INSTALL a new clockspring. REFER to Supplemental Restraint System .
    No  GO to  C5.
  5. C5 CHECK FOR CORRECT SCCM OPERATION

    • Disconnect and inspect all the SCCM connectors.
    • Repair:
      • corrosion (install new connector or terminals - clean module pins)
      • damaged or bent pins - install new terminals/pins
      • pushed-out pins - install new pins as necessary
    • Reconnect the SCCM connectors and make sure they are seated correctly.
    • Connect all disconnected connectors.
    • Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.

    Is the concern still present? 

    Yes  CHECK OASIS for any applicable TSBs. If a TSB exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW TSB instructions. If no TSBs address this concern, INSTALL a new SCCM. REFER to Steering Column Switches .
    No  The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by module connections. ADDRESS the root cause of any connector or pin issues.
