DTC P0563: Engine Control Module (ECM)/Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Power Source Circuit Unexpected Voltage






General Description
If there is a short to ground in the harness between the engine control module (ECM)/powertrain control module (PCM) and PGM-FI main relay 1, PGM-FI main relay 1 stays ON even if the ignition switch is turned to LOCK (0), and the ECM/PCM remains active. However, the engine is not running because power for the gauges, the ignition, and the fuel pump is turned OFF by the ignition switch. When the ECM/PCM operates for a set time after the ignition switch is turned to LOCK (0), a malfunction is detected and a DTC is stored.
