Test Procedure

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2004 Ford RV Cutaway, 2004 Ford Pickup, 2004 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2004 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2004 Ford Excursion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. C1 DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) P0704 
    NOTE: Refer to the PCM and component connector pin numbers Figure at the beginning of this pinpoint test.
    NOTE: No PID transition indicates a CPP circuit failure.
    • Connect the scan tool.
    • Key on.
    • Access CPP/PNP PID.
    • Apply and release the clutch pedal.

    DOES THE PID READ ON ONLY? 

    Yes No
    Go to  C2. Go to  C4.
  2. C2 CHECK CPP SWITCH

  3. C3 CHECK CPP CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE 
    • Key off.
    • Disconnect the PCM body harness connector.
    • Key on.
    • Measure the voltage between the PCM body harness connector pin 36 and ground.

    IS THE VOLTAGE LESS THAN 0.2 VOLTS? 

    Yes No
    INSTALL a new PCM. RESTORE the vehicle. CLEAR DTCs and RETEST the system. REPAIR short to voltage. RESTORE the vehicle. CLEAR DTCs and RETEST the system.
  4. C4 CHECK CPP SWITCH 
    • Key off.
    • Remove CPP switch.
    • Measure the resistance across CPP switch terminals.

    IS THE RESISTANCE LESS THAN 5 OHMS? 

    Yes No
    Go to  C5. INSTALL a new CPP switch. RESTORE the vehicle. CLEAR DTCs and RETEST the system.
  5. C5 CHECK CPP CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN 
    • Reinstall CPP switch.
    • Measure the resistance between the PCM body harness connector pin 36 and the non-powered side of the fuse block.

    IS THE RESISTANCE LESS THAN 5 OHMS? 

    Yes No
    INSTALL a new PCM. RESTORE the vehicle. CLEAR DTCs and RETEST the system. REPAIR open in wiring. RESTORE the vehicle. CLEAR DTCs and RETEST the system.
