Pinpoint Test

  1. CHECK THE Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) FROM BOTH THE CONTINUOUS AND ON-DEMAND Cruise-Control Module (C-CM) SELF-TESTS
    1. Ignition ON.
    2. Using a scan tool, clear continuous Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) from all modules.
    3. Ignition OFF.
    4. Wait at least 10 seconds.
    5. Ignition ON.
    6. Using a scan tool, perform the Cruise-Control Module (C-CM) self-test.
      • Is Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) C1A67:96 recorded? 
      1. Yes:  GO to on page 2.
      2. No:  The system is operating correctly at this time. The Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) may have been set due to an intermittent fault condition. CHECK the Cruise-Control Module (C-CM) connector for corrosion. CLEAN and REPAIR if corrosion is present. CLEAR the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
  2. CHECK FOR CORRECT Cruise-Control Module (C-CM) OPERATION
    1. Disconnect the Cruise-Control Module (C-CM) connector.
    2. 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
    3. Reconnect the Cruise-Control Module (C-CM) connector. Make sure it seats and latches correctly.
    4. Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.
      • Is the concern still present? 
      1. Yes:  CHECK On-Line Automotive Service Information System (OASIS) for any applicable Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs). If a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) instructions. If no Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) address this concern, INSTALL a new Cruise-Control Module (C-CM). REFER to CRUISE CONTROL MODULE (C-CM) .
      2. 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.
