P0566 OBD-II: Cruise Control "Off" Signal

P0566 Severity

Moderate

Will P0566 go away on its own?

Once the vehicle's onboard system no longer detects the issue, most codes will disappear on their own. If your vehicle still has this code, however, it should be properly diagnosed to avoid a more serious problem.

For a proper diagnosis, RepairPal Certified shops have the equipment, tools, and expertise.

What causes OBD-II fault code P0566?

The Cruise Control System is controlled by the Body Control Module. The Body Control Module monitors driver inputs to the cruise control system and sends that request to the engine computer (PCM). If the body control module detects an invalid input from the cruise control "Off" Switch, code P056 will be set.
