P0560

DTC P0560 System Voltage

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

DTC Detection Condition:




Monitor Strategy:




Typical Enabling Conditions:




Typical Malfunction Thresholds:




The battery supplies electricity to the ECM even when the ignition switch is OFF. This electricity allows the ECM store data such as DTC history, freeze frame data, fuel time values, and other data. If the battery voltage falls below a minimum level, the ECM will conclude that there is a fault in the power supply circuit. The next engine starts, the ECM will turn on the MIL and a DTC will be set.

HINT: If DTC P0560 present, the ECM will not store another DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT: Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS

HINT:
Hand-held tester only:
Inspect the vehicle's ECM using check mode. Intermittent problems are easier to detect with the hand-held tester when the ECM is in check mode. In check mode, the ECM uses 1trip detection logic, which is more sensitive to malfunctions than normal mode (default) that uses 2trip detection logic.

a. Clear DTCs.
b. Switch the ECM from normal mode to check mode using a hand-held tester.
c. Perform a simulation test.
d. Check and wiggle the harness(es), the connector(s) and terminal(s).
