Circuit Description
The components are powered and ignition voltage is greater than 9.0 volts and
less than 18 volts.
The engine speed is greater than 450 RPM for 10 seconds.
DTC P0562 sets when the TCM detects ignition voltage below 8.0 volts at 0°C (32°F) for
a total of 5 out of 7 seconds. The voltage threshold is temperature dependant, varying
from 5.0 volts at −60°C (−75°F) to 9.0 volts at 20°C (68°F).
A scan tool can clear the code from TCM history. The TCM automatically clears the
DTC from TCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without failure.
Diagnostic Aids
Inspect for the presence of aftermarket accessories, such as a remote starter, etc.
Depending on how these aftermarket accessories are installed, they may interfere
with the required voltage for proper operation of the transmission.
Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections at the TCM. Inspect for the
following conditions:
o A bent terminal
o A backed-out terminal
o A damaged terminal
o Poor terminal tension
o A chafed wire
o A broken wire inside the insulation
When diagnosing for an intermittent short or open, massage the wiring harness
while watching the test equipment for a change.
Inspect the batteries for proper voltage.
Inspect the charging system for proper operation.
You may have to drive the vehicle in order to experience a condition.
Inspect for the presence of aftermarket accessories, such as remote starters, etc.
Depending on how these aftermarket accessories are installed, they may interfere
with the required voltage for proper operation of the transmission.
