Circuit Description
This DTC checks for an abnormal VSS input to the cruise control module or a malfunction within the cruise control module.
Diagnostic Aids
Check for the following:
| • | DTCs in the powertrain control module |
| • | If the speedometer operates normally, the VSS is OK |
| • | Open or high resistance in the PPL/WHT wire between junction block 3 and the cruise control module |
| • | Faulty cruise control module |
An intermittent may be caused by a poor connection, rubbed through wire insulation or a wire broken inside the insulation. Inspect the following harness connectors for backed out terminals, improper mating, broken lock, improperly formed or damaged terminals or for poor terminal-to-wire connection before replacing the suspect component:
| • | Cruise control module connector |
| • | Junction block 3 C1 |
| • | C210 |
