Cruise Control Input Circuit
What it means
P0575 means the module has detected a problem with the input signal from the cruise control switches. The cruise control may not set or hold a speed, or may not work at all. It is a convenience-system fault only and does not affect the engine, brakes, or transmission.
Can I keep driving? Fully drivable — only the cruise control is affected. Engine, brakes, and transmission are unaffected.

Figures reflect only diagnostic scans recorded through our own apps and tools. Cars are typically scanned because a symptom or warning light prompted it, so these counts describe our scan records — not the incidence of faults in any model, and not the quality, reliability, or safety of any vehicle.

How to diagnose & fix
Work through it in order
- Scan live data to check what the module sees when a cruise button is pressed.
- Test the cruise control switch for correct operation across each button.
- Inspect the wiring, connectors, and fuse in the cruise circuit; replace the fuse if blown.
- Check the clock spring if the switches are on the steering wheel.
- Replace the switch or module if the input never reaches the ECM. Clear and re-test.
