Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Cruise Control Deactivation Event Parameter Identification (PIDs)
The PCM has PIDs available, through the powertrain DataLogger, that indicate the event that caused the last cruise control deactivation. When the cruise control is turned ON, all current deactivation (or non-activation) conditions are recorded. When the cruise control is turned OFF, event recording stops. The recorded events are stored until the ignition is turned OFF.
The PCM has 24 cruise control deactivation event PIDs, identified as CRUISEOFF_00 through 24. The event PIDs should be read when deactivation or non-activation exists.
