P0807



DTC P0807





Circuit Description
The clutch pedal position (CPP) sensor is an input to the engine control module (ECM). The CPP sensor is a potentiometer type sensor with a 5-volt reference circuit, a common low reference circuit and an independent signal circuit. The ECM supplies the 5-volt reference to the CPP.

The CPP sensor has opposite functionally. With the pedal released the CPP signal switch should read above 4 volts. With the pedal fully depressed the CPP signal switch should read below 1 volt.

When the ECM detects a continuous open or short to ground in either the CPP switch signal circuit or the CPP sensor, DTC P0807 sets. DTC P0807 is a type A DTC.

DTC Descriptor
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:

DTC P0807 Clutch Position Sensor Circuit Low

Conditions for Running the DTC
^ Ignition voltage is greater than 9.0 volts.
^ Ignition ON, with the engine OFF or the engine operating.
^ DTC P0807 runs continuously once the above conditions are met.

Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ECM detects a CPP signal voltage less than 0.001 volts for greater than 0.5 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
If equipped, the following actions occur:
^ The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) is turned ON.
^ DTC P0807 is stored in memory.
^ The Freeze Frame/Failure Records are stored.
^ The Failure Records are updated after the first failure of each ignition cycle.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC
^ The condition for the DTC is no longer present and the DTC is cleared with a scan tool.
^ The ECM turns OFF the MIL after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
^ A Current and a Last Test Failed DTC clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
^ A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic.

Diagnostic Aids
Use the J 35616 GM-approved Terminal Test Kit for any test that requires probing the ECM harness connector or any component connector.
