Getrag 5 Speed - Manual Transmission
DTC P0833
Circuit Description
Battery voltage is supplied from the clutch brake fuse to the clutch switch. The clutch switch is a normally closed switch. When the clutch pedal is released, the clutch pedal position switch signal circuit is pulled up to B+. When the clutch pedal is applied, the switch opens, and the voltage drops to 0 volts.
When the engine control module (ECM) detects a large number of gear changes without detecting a clutch switch transition, DTC P0833 sets. DTC P0833 is a type B DTC.
DTC Descriptor
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC P0833 Clutch Pedal Switch 2 Circuit
Conditions for Running the DTC
No vehicle speed sensor (VSS) DTCs P0502 or P0503.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ECM detects 8 changes in vehicle speed 0-15 km/h (0-10 mph) without the ECM detecting a clutch pedal transition.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
* The ECM illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) during the second consecutive trip in which the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met.
* The ECM disables Cruise Control.
* The ECM records the operating conditions when the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met. The ECM stores this information as Freeze Frame and Failure Records.
* The ECM stores DTC P0833 in ECM History during the second consecutive trip in which the Conditions for Setting the DTC are met.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
* The ECM turns OFF the MIL during the third consecutive trip in which the diagnostic runs and passes.
* A scan tool can clear the MIL/DTC.
* The ECM clears the DTC from ECM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without an emission-related diagnostic fault occurring.
* The ECM cancels the DTC default actions when the fault no longer exists and the DTC passes.
Test Description
