Cruise Control Malfunction

The cruise control switch is an input to the body control module (BCM). The BCM monitors the cruise control on/off, set/coast, resume/accelerate and cancel switches via the cruise control switch signal circuit in order to detect when the driver has requested to perform a cruise control function. The BCM detects a specific voltage signal on the cruise control switch signal circuit when a switch is applied. The engine control module (ECM) receives the requested cruise control switch function from the BCM via a serial data message.

Engine ON, while rotating the steering wheel to both steering stops, observe the scan tool Cruise Control Switch parameter while pressing each of the cruise control switches. The parameter should toggle between On, Off, Resume and Set as the applicable switch is pressed.

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the wiring harness plug at the S70L Steering Wheel Controls Switch - Left.
2. Ignition ON, test for 11.0 V between the voltage reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.

⇒	If less than the specified value, test the reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 Body Control Module.

3. Test for 11.0 V between the voltage reference circuit terminal 1 and the signal circuit terminal 3.

⇒	If less than the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 Body Control Module.

4. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X3 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module.
5. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal 9 and ground.

⇒	If less than the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to ground.

6. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the S70L Steering Wheel Controls Switch - Left.

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
