Error Code P0583: What It Means & What To Do?

<<See All OBD Codes

The cruise control vacuum solenoid of your vehicle is controlled by the Powertrain Control module. This servo manages the vacuum that activates and deactivates the cruise control system. The PCM sets error code P0583 if the cruise control servo doesn't function as requested by it.

On many modern models of vehicles, the cruise control is a dominant feature, it helps the operator regulate speed, during long drives. The PCM steps up and runs a diagnostic evaluation, when the cruise control is unable to properly maintain cruising speed. If the tests run show that the cruise control system isn't working properly, the PCM will then store the trouble code.

• Some fault in any of the components of the cruise control system
• Visible crack or break in the vacuum supply hose

If you want to easily diagnose this fault code, then all you have to do is to follow the steps which are mentioned below:

Step 1 - Open the hood and check the cruise control system. Trace back the vacuum control line to see where it connects and what it controls. If you note that it goes directly to the vacuum solenoid, then thoroughly inspect the vacuum lines, solenoids, cruise control servo for any damage. All apparent damages will have to be repaired or replaced as needed before continuing with diagnosis. When you inspect the control servo, make it a point to verify the cable is not seized. A seized cable can disrupt the electrical values.

Step 2 - Start off with verifying the electrical values of the cruise control vacuum solenoid in order to rule out any internal faults. Use your vehicle manufacturers service manual to get the accurate values and procedures. These can be found mounted to the firewall, fender wells, intake manifolds etc. ensure you’re working with the right solenoid. Clear the engine light and test drive the system.

Step 3 - If you used a vacuum gauge even once, it’s a good idea to monitor the vacuum within the system. For this you will have to acquire the vacuum from specific ports off the intake system. You can refer your manual to know the exact location of this. The vacuum reading should be approximately 50-55 kPa at operating temperature with correct ignition timing, even though the specifics are subject to vehicle engines. Refer your vehicle manual for this too.

Common Mistakes When Diagnosing the P0583 Code

• Failure of Cruise control servo
• Failed Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
• Issue with the wiring
