P1585

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The PCM uses Output Driver Modules (ODMS) to control many functions of the engine, and the transaxle. The ODMs supply the ground path for the PCM controlled device when the PCM commands the device ON. Each ODM is able to control several outputs. Unlike the Quad Driver Modules (QDMs) used in earlier model years, the ODMs are able to diagnose each output circuit. The PCM monitors the ODMs for circuit conditions that are incorrect for the commanded state of the ODM. If the PCM detects an improper circuit condition in the ODM that controls the Cruise Inhibit Control Circuit, DTC P1585 will set.

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
^ The engine is running.
^ The system voltage is between 8 and 16 volts.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
^ The PCM detects an improper voltage level on the output circuit that controls the cruise inhibit control circuit.
^ The condition exists for at least 10 seconds.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
^ The PCM will not illuminate the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL).
^ The PCM will store the conditions present when the DTC set as Fail Records data only.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
^ The history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles have occurred without a malfunction.
^ The DTC can be cleared by using the scan tool Clear DTC Information function.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
To determine whether an improper voltage level exists on the output circuit, the PCM compares the voltage level to the commanded state. For example, a failure condition exists if the PCM detects a low voltage level when the device is commanded OFF, or a high voltage level when the device is commanded ON.

Check for the following conditions:
^ Poor connections at the PCM or the cruise control module. Refer to Testing for Intermittent and Poor Connections in Diagrams.
^ Damaged harness.
Inspect the wiring harness for damage. If the harness appears to be OK, disconnect the PCM and turn the ignition ON. Connect a voltmeter between the cruise inhibit control circuit and battery positive voltage. Observe the voltmeter while moving connectors and wiring harnesses related to the cruise inhibit control circuit. A change in voltage will indicate the location of the malfunction. If the condition is found, repair as necessary. Refer to Wiring Repairs in Diagrams.

Reviewing the Fail Records vehicle mileage since the diagnostic test last failed may assist in diagnosing the condition. The information may help determine how often the condition that set the DTC occurs.

TEST DESCRIPTION
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
2. Normally, ignition feed voltage should be present on the control circuit with the PCM disconnected and the ignition turned ON.
3. Tests for a short to voltage on the control circuit.
