Suggested Maximum Speed in Each Gear
Downshift to a lower gear if the engine is not running smoothly, or if you need to accelerate.
Do not exceed the maximum suggested speed (shown below) in any gear. For level road driving, use the
highest gear suggested for that speed. Always observe posted speed limits and drive according to the road
conditions to ensure safe operation. Do not over-rev the engine when shifting to a lower gear as it may cause
engine damage or loss of vehicle control.

TEST VALUE AND TEST LIMIT (GST ONLY Ð NOT APPLICABLE TO CONSULT-II)NBEC0031S04The following is the information specified in Mode 6 of SAE J1979.
The test value is a parameter used to determine whether a system/circuit diagnostic test is ªOKº or ªNGº while
being monitored by the ECM during self-diagnosis. The test limit is a reference value which is specified as the
maximum or minimum value and is compared with the test value being monitored.
Items for which these data (test value and test limit) are displayed are the same as SRT code items (30 test
items).
These data (test value and test limit) are specified by Test ID (TID) and Component ID (CID) and can be dis-
played on the GST screen.

EC-68

System DescriptionNBEL0216Refer to Owner's Manual for ASCD operating instructions.
POWER SUPPLY AND GROUNDNBEL0216S01Power is supplied at all times:
Ithrough 10A fuse [No. 14, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
Ito the stop lamp switch terminal 1, and
Ithrough 7.5A fuse (No. 52, located in fuse and fusible link box)
Ito the horn relay terminals 1 and 3.
When ignition switch is in the ON or START position, power is supplied:
Ithrough 7.5A fuse [No. 11, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
Ito ASCD brake switch terminal 1 and
Ito ASCD control unit terminal 5,
Ithrough 10A fuse [No. 18, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
Ito park/neutral position relay terminal 1,
Ithrough 10A fuse [No. 8, located in the fuse block (J/B)]
Ito combination meter terminal 66, and
When park/neutral position switch is in the P or N position, ground is supplied:
Ito park/neutral position relay terminal 2
Ithrough park/neutral position switch and body grounds B55 and B75.
When ASCD main switch is depressed (ON), ground is supplied:
Ito ASCD control unit terminal 9
Ifrom ASCD steering switch terminal 4
Ito ASCD steering switch terminal 5
Ithrough body grounds M4, M66 and M147
then ASCD control unit holds CRUISE condition and illuminates CRUISE indicator.
Ground is supplied:
Ifrom ASCD control unit terminal 15
Ito combination meter terminal 46.
OPERATIONNBEL0216S02Set OperationNBEL0216S0201To activate the ASCD, all following conditions must exist.
IGround supply to ASCD control unit terminal 9 (Main switch is in ON position.)
IPower supply to ASCD control unit terminal 8 (Brake pedal is released and A/T selector lever is in other
than P and N position.)
IVehicle speed is between 40 km/h (25 MPH) and 144 km/h (89 MPH). (Signal from combination meter)
When the SET/COAST switch is depressed, power is supplied:
Ifrom ASCD steering switch terminal 2
Ito ASCD control unit terminal 11.
And then ASCD pump is activated to control throttle wire and ASCD control unit supply ground
Ito combination meter terminals 51 to illuminate SET indicator.
A/T Overdrive Control during Cruise Control DrivingNBEL0216S0202When the vehicle speed is approximately 3 km/h (2 MPH) below set speed, a signal is sent
Ifrom ASCD control unit terminal 10
Ito TCM (transmission control module) terminal 24.
When this occurs, the TCM (transmission control module) cancels overdrive.
After vehicle speed is approximately 1 km/h (1 MPH) below set speed, overdrive is reactivated.
ASCD Shifting ControlNBEL0216S0203During ASCD cruise, ASCD control unit controls A/T shifting to avoid uncomfortable shifting.
This is used to control the signals below.
IThrottle position sensor from ECM
AUTOMATIC SPEED CONTROL DEVICE (ASCD)
System Description
EL-222

IA/T shift solenoid valve A
Coast OperationNBEL0216S0204When the SET/COAST switch is depressed during cruise control driving, ASCD actuator returns the throttle
cable to decrease vehicle set speed until the switch is released. And then ASCD will keep the new set speed.
Accel OperationNBEL0216S0205When the RESUME/ACCEL switch is depressed, power is supplied
Ifrom ASCD steering switch terminal 3
Ito ASCD control unit terminal 24.
If the RESUME/ACCEL switch is depressed during cruise control driving, ASCD actuator pulls the throttle cable
to increase the vehicle speed until the switch is released or vehicle speed is reached to maximum controlled
speed by the system. And then ASCD will keep the new set speed.
Cancel OperationNBEL0216S0206When any of following condition exists, cruise operation will be canceled.
ICANCEL switch is depressed. (Power supply to ASCD control unit terminals 11 and 24)
IBrake pedal is depressed. (Power supply to ASCD control unit terminal 23 from stop lamp switch)
IBrake pedal is depressed or A/T selector lever is shifted to P or N position. (Power supply to ASCD con-
trol unit terminal 8 is interrupted.)
If MAIN switch is turned to OFF during ASCD is activated, all of ASCD operation will be canceled and vehicle
speed memory will be erased.
Resume OperationNBEL0216S0207When the RESUME/ACCEL switch is depressed after cancel operation other than depressing MAIN switch is
performed, vehicle speed will return to last set speed. To resume vehicle set speed, vehicle condition must
meet following conditions.
IBrake pedal is released.
IA/T selector lever is in other than P and N position.
IVehicle speed is between 40 km/h (25 MPH) and 144 km/h (89 MPH).
ASCD PUMP OPERATIONNBEL0216S03The ASCD pump consists of a vacuum motor, an air valve and a release valve. When the ASCD activates,
power is supplied
Ifrom terminal 12 of ASCD control unit
Ito ASCD pump terminal 1.
Ground is supplied to vacuum motor, air valve and release valve from ASCD control unit depending on the
operated condition as shown in the below table.
The pump is connected to ASCD actuator by vacuum hose. When the ASCD pump is activated, the ASCD
pump vacuum the diaphragm of ASCD actuator to control throttle cable.
