DESCRIPTION
The auxiliary battery supplies electricity to the ECM even when the power switch is off. This power allows the ECM to store data such as DTC history, freeze frame data and fuel trim values. If the auxiliary battery voltage falls below a minimum level, the stored ECM data is cleared and the ECM determines that there is a malfunction in the power supply circuit. When the engine is next started, the ECM will illuminate the MIL and set the DTC.
| DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| P0560 | Open in ECM back-up power source circuit (1 trip detection logic) |
|
Tech Tips
If DTC P0560 is set, the ECM does not store other DTCs.
MONITOR STRATEGY
| Required Sensors/Components | ECM |
| Frequency of Operation | Continuous |
TYPICAL MALFUNCTION THRESHOLDS
| Stand-by RAM | Initialized |
| Auxiliary battery voltage | Less than 3.5 V |
CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure) Click here.
Turn the power switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.
Wait 5 seconds or more.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
Read Pending DTCs.
Tech Tips
If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / All Readiness.
Input the DTC: P0560.
Check the DTC judgment result.
| GTS Display | Description |
|---|---|
| NORMAL |
|
| ABNORMAL |
|
| INCOMPLETE |
|
| N/A |
|
Tech Tips
If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Note
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
Tech Tips
Read freeze frame data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
PROCEDURE
INSPECT AUXILIARY BATTERY
Check the auxiliary battery voltage.
| Auxiliary battery voltage |
|---|
| 11 to 14 V |
| NG |
|
REPLACE AUXILIARY BATTERY |
| OK |
|
CHECK AUXILIARY BATTERY TERMINAL
Check that the auxiliary battery terminals are not loose or corroded.
| OK |
|---|
| Auxiliary battery terminals are not loose or corroded. |
| NG |
|
REPAIR OR REPLACE AUXILIARY BATTERY TERMINAL |
| OK |
|
INSPECT ECM (BATT VOLTAGE)
Disconnect the ECM connector.

REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (AUXILIARY BATTERY - ECM) |
| OK |
|
CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS (DTC P0560)
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs Click here.
Turn the power switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.
Wait 5 seconds or more.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
Read the DTCs.
