Circuit Description
The TCC normally closed cruise brake switch supplies a B+ signal on the Brake Switch Input circuit to the PCM. The circuit is opened when the brakes are applied. The stop lamp/cruise control normally open brake switch supplies a B+ signal on the Stoplamp Switch Input circuit to the PCM when the brake is applied.
Conditions for Running the DTC
• Brake switches disagree for 10 consecutive minutes.
or
• TCC and cruise control brake switches are not toggling open and closed, during 6 brake applications on the same ignition cycle.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
• Brake switches disagree for 10 consecutive minutes.
or
• TCC and cruise control brake switches are not toggling open and closed, during 6 brake applications on the same ignition cycle.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
• The PCM disallows all cruise control inputs.
• TCC shift schedules may be affected.
• The PCM will not illuminate the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL).
• The PCM records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. This information stores in the Failure Records.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
• A History DTC clears after forty consecutive warm-up cycles, if this or any other emission related diagnostic does not report any failures
• The use of a scan tool.
Diagnostic Aids
Refer to PCM Intermittent Diagnostic Trouble Codes or Performance. Check customer driving habits and/or unusual traffic conditions (i.e. stop and go, expressway traffic).
