Pinpoint Test A : The Cruise Control Is Inoperative

  1. A1 CHECK THE STOPLAMP SWITCH (BOO1) AND CRUISE CONTROL DEACTIVATOR SWITCH (BOO2) PARAMETER IDENTIFICATIONS (PIDS)

    • Using a scan tool, view PCM Parameter Identifications (PIDs).

    • Using the table, monitor the Parameter Identifications (PIDs) BOO1 (stoplamp switch) and BOO2 (cruise control deactivator switch) while applying and releasing the brake pedal.
      Brake Pedal Position BOO1 PID BOO2 PID
      Released Off Off
      Applied On On

    Do the PID values agree with the brake pedal position? 

    Yes  GO to  A2
    No  GO to Pinpoint Test B 
  2. A2 CHECK FOR VOLTAGE TO THE CRUISE CONTROL SWITCHES

    WARNING: Turn the ignition OFF and wait one minute to deplete the backup power supply. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury or death in the event of an accidental deployment.

    • Turn the ignition OFF and wait one minute.

    • Disconnect: LH Lower Steering Wheel Switch.

    • Ignition ON.

    • Measure:

      C2366-4

    Are the voltages approximately 2 volts? 

    Yes  GO to  A3
    No  GO to  A5
  3. A3 CHECK THE CRUISE SIGNAL 1 CIRCUIT ON THE CLOCKSPRING

    • Ignition OFF.

    • Connect: LH Lower Steering Wheel Switch C2366

    • Disconnect: Clockspring C218B

    • Ignition ON.

    • While pressing the cruise control switches, measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C218B-8

      C218B-15

      Resistance Specification 

      Button Resistance Range
      Switches At Rest 694 - 710 Ohms
      ON/OFF Button Pressed 0 - 6 Ohms

    Do all of the resistances fall within the specified ranges? 

    Yes  GO to  A4
    No  INSTALL a new LH steering wheel switch. REFER to: Steering Wheel Multifunction Switch .
  4. A4 CHECK THE CRUISE SIGNAL 2 CIRCUIT ON THE CLOCKSPRING

    • While pressing the cruise control switches, measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C218B-16
      GFD214322Courtesy of FORD MOTOR COMPANY
      C218B-15

      Resistance Specification 

      Button Resistance Range
      Switches At Rest 694 - 710 Ohms
      RES/CAN Button Pressed 0 - 6 Ohms
      SET (-) Button Pressed 145 - 154 Ohms
      SET (+) Button Pressed 358 - 371 Ohms

    Do all the resistances fall within the specified range? 

    Yes  GO to  A5
    No  GO to  A7
  5. A5 CHECK THE STEERING WHEEL SWITCH HARNESS FOR AN OPEN

    NOTE: The steering wheel harness is serviced separately.

    • Ignition OFF.

    • Disconnect:

    Are the resistances less than 3 ohms? 

    Yes  GO to  A6
    No  INSTALL a new steering wheel harness.
  6. A6 CHECK FOR CORRECT CRUISE CONTROL OPERATION

    NOTE: The steering wheel harness is serviced separately.

    • Reconnect all connectors and install removed components.

    • Perform a road test.

    Is the concern still present? 

    Yes  INSTALL a new steering wheel harness. TEST the system for normal operation. If the concern is still present, GO to  A7
    No  The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by an intermittent condition.
  7. A7 CHECK FOR CORRECT SASM (STEERING ANGLE SENSOR MODULE) OPERATION

    • Ignition OFF.

    • Disconnect and inspect all the SASM connectors.

    • Repair:

      • corrosion (install new connector or terminals - clean module pins)
      • damaged or bent pins - install new terminals/pins
      • pushed-out pins - install new pins as necessary

    • Reconnect the SASM connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly.

    • Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.

    Is the concern still present? 

    Yes  CHECK OASIS for any applicable Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs). If a TSB exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW TSB instructions. If no Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) address this concern, INSTALL a new SASM. REFER to: Clockspring . TEST the system for normal operation. If the concern is still present, GO to  A8
    No  The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by module connections. ADDRESS the root cause of any connector or pin issues.
  8. A8 CHECK FOR CORRECT PCM (POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE) OPERATION

    • Ignition OFF.

    • Disconnect and inspect all PCM connectors.

    • Repair:

      • corrosion (install new connector or terminals - clean module pins)
      • damaged or bent pins - install new terminals/pins
      • pushed-out pins - install new pins as necessary

    • Reconnect the PCM connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly.

    • Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.

    Is the concern still present? 

    Yes  CHECK OASIS for any applicable Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs). If a TSB exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW TSB instructions. If no Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) address this concern, Replace the component that was faulted. REFER to: Powertrain Control Module (PCM) .
    No  The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by module connections. ADDRESS the root cause of any connector or pin issues.
