Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
The TCC Brake signal circuit is a high voltage input to the body control module (BCM), engine control module (ECM), transmission control
module (TCM), Power Take Off (PTO) module (if equipped) and Trailer Brake controller (if equipped). The BCM monitors the stop lamp switch
circuit to detect when the brake pedal has been applied. The ECM monitors the TCC Brake signal to determine when the brake pedal is applied.
When the brake pedal is applied, the BCM sends a serial data message to the ECM indicating that the brake pedal has been applied. The ECM
senses a high voltage signal on the brake switch signal circuit when the stop lamp switch is closed.
Conditions for Running the DTC
* The engine is running.
* Battery voltage is greater than 11.5 volts.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
P0572
The ECM detects a low voltage signal on the TCC brake signal circuit for more than 2 seconds when the serial data message from the BCM
indicates the brakes are applied. The ECM sets the DTC when the condition has been detected 8 out of 10 times.
P0573
The ECM detects a high voltage signal on the TCC brake signal circuit for more than 2 seconds when the serial data message from the BCM
indicates the brakes are released. The ECM sets the DTC when the condition has been detected 8 out of 10 times.
Actions Taken When the DTC Sets
* The cruise control system becomes disabled.
* The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will not illuminate.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
* The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists.
* A history DTC will clear after 40 malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred.
