Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Charts and Descriptions
P1561 - Brake Line Pressure Sensor Circuit
Description:
Possible Causes:
Diagnostic Aids: Refer to the Workshop Manual Section 303-14, Electronic Engine Controls.
Application Key On Engine Off Key On Engine Running Continuous Memory
All Refer to the Description, Possible Causes and Diagnostic Aids for the DTC.
P1572 - Brake Pedal Switch Circuit
Description: This DTC sets when the brake input rationality test for brake pedal position (BPP) and brake pressure switch
(BPS) has detected a concern. One or both inputs to the PCM did not change state when expected. On some vehicles with stability assist, the BPP switch is connected to the anti-lock brake system (ABS) module and the ABS generates a driver brake application signal, which is then sent to the PCM.
Possible Causes: • Incorrectly adjusted BPP switch
• Blown fuse
• Damaged BPP switch
• Damaged BPS
• BPP circuit open
• BPP circuit short to voltage
• BPP circuit short to ground
• BPS circuit open
• BPS circuit short to voltage
• BPS circuit short to ground
Diagnostic Aids: This DTC sets when the PCM does not sense the correct sequence of the brake pedal input signal from both
the BPP switch and the BPS when the brake pedal is pressed and released.

P1575 - Pedal Position Out Of Self Test Range
Description: During key ON engine OFF (KOEO) self-test, the PCM monitors the accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor
inputs to determine if the APP1 and APP2 signals are less than an expected value. This DTC sets when either
APP1 or APP2 is greater than the expected value.
Possible Causes: • Accelerator pedal applied during KOEO self-test
Diagnostic Aids: Repeat the self-test without applying the accelerator pedal. Make sure the floor mat is not interfering with the
accelerator pedal. Diagnose any APP circuit DTCs first.

P160A - Control Module Vehicle Options Reconfiguration Error
Description: This DTC sets when the body control module (BCM) detects a mismatch in configuration data and
programmable parameters between the PCM and BCM.
Possible Causes: • Module reprogramming
• Aftermarket performance products
• PCM
Diagnostic Aids: Reprogram or update the calibration. If the PCM already has the latest calibration, carry out the RELEARN
VEHICLE DATA procedure from the SERVICE FUNCTIONS menu on the scan tool. Check for other DTCs or drive symptoms for further action. Make sure to check for aftermarket performance products before installing a new PCM. If it is necessary to install a new PCM, refer to Section 2, Flash Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM), Programming the VID Block for a replacement PCM.
