Circuit/System Description
The engine control module (ECM) monitors the system voltage to ensure that the voltage stays within the proper range. Damage to components, and incorrect data may occur when the voltage is out of range.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | The vehicle speed is above 8 km/h (5 mph). |
| • | The system voltage is between 9.5-18 volts. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ECM detects battery voltage greater than 16 volts for 1 second.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
DTC P0563 is a type C DTC.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTC P0563 is a type C DTC.

Diagnostic Aids
| • | This DTC could be set by overcharging with a battery charger or jump starting. |
| • | A high voltage value in multiple modules indicates a concern in the charging system. |
Circuit/System Verification
- Engine running, accessories OFF, measure and record the battery voltage at the battery terminals. The voltage should be between 12.6 and 15.0 volts.
- Observe the scan tool ECM Ignition 1 Signal parameter. The reading should be between 12.6 and 15.0 volts.
| ⇒ | If not within the specified range, refer to Charging System Test. |
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, replace the ECM. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
