Test SC-8A: Checking Speed Control On/Off Switch

NOTE: Perform TEST SC-7A  before proceeding.
  1. If speed control engage light does not illuminate, go to step 5). If speed control engage light illuminates, go to next step.
  2. Using scan tool, actuate speed control solenoids. If speed control solenoids are not clicking, go to step 5). If speed control solenoids are clicking, go to next step.
  3. Turn ignition off. Disconnect Powertrain Control Module (PCM) connector. Turn ignition on. Using external voltmeter, measure voltage of speed control sense circuit between PCM connector terminal No. 12 (Red/Black wire) and ground. If voltage is 9 volts or less, repair open speed control sense circuit (Red/Black wire) between speed control switch and PCM. Perform TEST SC-VER  . If voltage is more than 9 volts, go to next step.
  4. Measure voltage of speed control light driver circuit between PCM connector terminal No. 22 (Light Green wire) and ground. If voltage is more than 9 volts, replace PCM. Perform TEST SC-VER  . If voltage is 9 volts or less, repair open speed control light driver circuit (Light Green wire). Before searching for an open circuit, ensure speed control engage light bulb is okay. Perform TEST SC-VER  .
  5. Turn ignition off. Access and disconnect 8-pin speed control ON/OFF switch connector. Turn ignition on. Using external voltmeter, measure voltage of fused ignition switch output circuit (Black/White wire) between speed control ON/OFF switch connector terminal No. 3 and ground. If voltage is 9 volts or less, repair open fused ignition switch output circuit (Black/White wire). Perform TEST SC-VER  . If voltage is more than 9 volts, go to next step.
  6. Turn ignition off. Using an external ohmmeter, measure resistance of ground circuit between speed control ON/OFF switch connector terminal No. 4 (Black wire) and ground. If resistance is less than 10 ohms, replace speed control ON/OFF switch. Perform TEST SC-VER  . If resistance is 10 ohms or more, repair open ground circuit (Black wire). Perform TEST SC-VER  .
