P0592-SPEED CONTROL SWITCH 2 CIRCUIT LOWFor a complete wiring diagram Refer to Section 8W.When Monitored:With the ignition key on.Set Condition:Speed control switch input No.2 is below the minimum acceptable voltage at the PCM. One trip fault.
Possible Causes(V72) S/C SIGNAL 2 CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND(V72) S/C SIGNAL 2 CIRCUIT SHORTED TO THE (V937) S/C RETURN CIRCUITSPEED CONTROL SWITCHPCM
Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).Diagnostic Test1.SPEED CONTROL SWITCH VOLTAGE LOWDo not press any of the Speed Control Switch buttons.Ignition on, engine not running.With a scan tool, read the Speed Control voltage.Is the Speed Control voltage below 1.0 volt?YesGo To 2NoRefer to the INTERMITTENT CONDITION Diagnostic Procedure.Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)2.SPEED CONTROL SWITCHWith the scan tool, monitor the Speed Control Switch voltage.Disconnect the Speed Control Switch harness connector.Did the voltage change to above 4.7 volts?YesReplace the Speed Control Switch.Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)NoGo To 33.(V72) S/C SIGNAL 2 CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUNDTurn the ignition off.Disconnect the C3 PCM harness connector.Measure the resistance between ground and the (V72) S/C Signal 2 circuit in the Switch harness connector.Is the resistance below 100 ohms?YesRepair the short to ground in the (V72) S/C Signal 2 circuit.Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)NoGo To 44.(V72) S/C SIGNAL 2 CIRCUIT SHORTED TO THE (V937) S/C RETURN CIRCUITMeasure the resistance between the (V72) S/C Signal 2 circuit and the (V937) S/C Return circuit in the Switch harness connector.Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?YesRepair the short between the (V72) S/C Signal 2 circuit and the (V937) S/C Return circuit.Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)NoGo To 55.SPEED CONTROL SWITCH VOLTAGE VALUESAllow the engine to idle.With a scan tool, monitor the S/C Switch voltage readings.

Take these same voltage measurements with a voltmeter by back probing the (V72) S/C Signal 2 circuit at the switches.Compare the voltage readings on the voltmeter to what the scan tool displayed.Are the voltage readings out of the listed specification and is there less than a 0.2 of a volt difference between the voltmeter switch values and the scan tool switch values?YesReplace the Speed Control Switch.Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)NoGo To 66.PCMBefore continuing, check the PCM harness connector terminals for corrosion, damage, or terminal push out. Repair as necessary.Using the schematics as a guide, inspect the wire harness and connectors. Pay particular attention to all Power and Ground circuits.Were there any problems found?YesRepair as necessary.Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)NoReplace and program the Powertrain Control Module per Service Information.Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST.
