  • Digital Transmission Range (TR) sensor
  • Vehicle speed signal
  • PCM
  • Stoplamp switch
  • Body Control Module (BCM) (with adaptive cruise control)
  • Cruise-Control Module (C-CM) (with adaptive cruise control)
  • ABS module (with adaptive cruise control)
  • Steering Column Control Module (SCCM)
  • The cruise control indicator lamp is never/always on
  • Wiring, terminals and connectors
  • PCM
  • IPC
  • The cruise control switch is inoperative/does not operate correctly

  • The adaptive cruise control does not function in rain or snow conditions
  • C-CM
  • Blockage or obstruction
  • Front bumper cover
  • Unexpected adaptive cruise control braking
  • C-CM
  • Front bumper cover
  • The adaptive cruise control system can occasionally detect and respond to out-of-path vehicles, especially on curves, entry/exit ramps or when changing lanes. CHECK the C-CM and front bumper cover for damage. RETEST the adaptive cruise control system.
  • Lack of adaptive cruise control braking
  • C-CM
  • Front bumper cover
  • The adaptive cruise control system may not detect and respond to vehicles carrying out close cut-ins or on tight curves (especially for vehicles on the passenger side) due to limited C-CM field of view. CHECK the CCM and front bumper cover for damage. If no damage is observed, RETEST the adaptive cruise control system.
  • Noise during adaptive cruise control braking
  • Low speeds
  • Brake concern
  • The driver can detect some noise at low speeds when adaptive cruise control braking occurs. If braking noise continues, REFER to BRAKE SYSTEM - GENERAL INFORMATION to continue diagnosis of the ABS system.
  • The cruise control cannot set speed above 130 km/h (80 mph)
  • A MyKey® restricted key is in use and MyKey® max speed limiter is turned on
  • VERIFY if a MyKey® restricted key is in use. REFER to ANTI-THEFT - PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (PATS) . With an admin key, VERIFY if MyKey® max speed limiter is turned on. REFER to the Owner's Literature. If necessary, VERIFY cruise control normal operation with an admin key.
