CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors system voltage on the PCM ignition teed circuit. If the system voltage is out of tolerance, DTC P0560 will be set. When the conditions that set DTC P0560 are present, operation of some vehicle systems and components may be affected.
CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
The engine is running.
CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
^ System voltage monitored at the PCM ignition feed circuit is less than 9 volts or more than 16 volts.
^ Above conditions for longer than 25 seconds.
ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
^ The PCM stores the DTC information into memory when the diagnostic runs and fails.
^ The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will not illuminate.
^ The PCM records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic tails. The PCM stores this information in the Failure Records.
CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
^ A History DTC will clear after forty consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other non-emission related diagnostic.
^ The current DTC will clear when the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
^ Use a scan tool in order to clear the MIL diagnostic trouble code.
^ Interrupting the PCM battery voltage may or may not clear DTCs. This practice is not recommended. Refer to Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Description, Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.
DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
NOTE: Refer to Connector Test Adapter kit J 35616-A Notice in Service Precautions.
IMPORTANT:
^ Be sure to inspect PCM engine grounds for being secure and clean.
^ Charging with a battery charger while starting the engine can cause DTC P0560 to set.
If DTC P0560 cannot be duplicated, reviewing the Failure Records vehicle mileage since the diagnostic test last failed may help determine how often the condition that caused the DTC to set occurs. This may assist in diagnosing the condition. For complete information and additional diagnostics for the vehicle charging system, refer to A Diagnostic Starting Point in Starting and Charging. Testing and Inspection
If the problem is intermittent, refer to Intermittent Conditions. Intermittent Conditions
TEST DESCRIPTION
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
13. This vehicle is equipped with a PCM which utilizes an Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM). When the PCM is being replaced, the new PCM must be programmed.
