Most Reported On
P2583 is an OBD-II diagnostic trouble code meaning “Cruise Control Front Distance Range Sensor Single Sensor or Center.” This code sets when the powertrain/cruise control module detects a fault or implausible signal from the front distance range sensor used by the adaptive cruise control (ACC) system. This sensor (radar or laser) measures the distance and relative speed of the vehicle ahead so the system can maintain a set following gap. When the fault is present, adaptive cruise control is typically disabled and a warning lamp is displayed.
