P0564




DTC P0564

Circuit Description

The cruise control switch is an input to the instrument panel cluster (IPC). The IPC monitors the cruise control set/coast and resume/accelerate switch signal circuit in order to detect when a cruise control function has been requested. The IPC detects a specific voltage signal on the cruise control set/coast and resume/accelerate switch signal circuit when a cruise control function switch is activated, with each switch having a different predetermined voltage value. Once a cruise control function has been requested, the IPC sends a command via serial data to the engine control module (ECM).
