P0560
DTC P0560
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors the system voltage to ensure that the voltage stays within the proper range. Damage to components, and incorrect data input can occur when the voltage is out of range. The PCM monitors the system voltage over an extended length of time. If the PCM detects a system voltage outside an expected range for the calibrated length of time, DTC P0560 will set.
DTC DESCRIPTOR
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC P0560 System Voltage
CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
- System voltage below 11 volts
- Engine speed above 1,500 RPM
- Vehicle speed below 40 km/h (25 mph)
CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
The PCM detects a system voltage out of range for 2 seconds.
ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
- The PCM will not illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL).
- The PCM will command the charge indicator to be illuminated on the instrument panel cluster (IPC).
- The PCM will store conditions which were present when the DTC set as Fail Records data only.
CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE DTC
- The PCM will command the message OFF after one trip in which the diagnostic test has been run and passed.
- The history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles have occurred without a malfunction.
- The DTC can be cleared by using the scan tool Clear DTC Information function.
