Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
P0592-SPEED CONTROL SWITCH 2 CIRCUIT LOW
For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.
Theory of Operation
The Speed Control Switch is hardwired to the Steering Column Control Module (SCCM). The SCCM is located near the top of the steering column below the steering wheel. The SCCM includes the steering column shroud, the Steering Angle Sensor (SAS), the Clockspring, the Multi-function Switch, a Steering Column Power Tilt and Telescope Switch (if equipped), and a trim cover. The speed control messages are bussed to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) via the Can Bus.
- When Monitored:
Continuously with the ignition on.
- Set Condition:
Fault signifies when the switch voltage is shorted low.
Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting Procedure.
CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC
WARNING: Turn the ignition off disconnect the 12-volt battery and wait two minutes before proceeding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
WARNING: Do not place an intact non-deployed airbag face down on a hard surface, the airbag propels into the air if accidentally deployed. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. With the scan tool, read DTCs.
Does the scan tool display this DTC as active?
Yes
- NOTE: Visually and physically inspect the wiring harness between the Speed Control Switch harness connector and the SCCM harness connector. Repair any damaged wires, connectors, and open/spread terminals. If harness is OK, proceed with test.
- Replace the Speed Control Switch. Speed Control Switch - Removal.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Powertrain Verification Test.
No
- Perform the INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Intermittent Condition Test
