TROUBLESHOOTING HINTSECU terminal voltage
DESCRIPTION OF OPERATIONThe power is supplied through the ignition switch
(IG,) and cruise control main switch to the control
unit.
1. When the cruise control main switch is set to
ON with the ignition switch at ON, the current
from switch
S, flows through relay Ry, in the
switch. Accordingly, the contact of relay
Ry, is
closed and the power is supplied to the control
unit.
2. When the main switch is released, it automati-
cally returns to the neutral position. Since the
current from switch
S2 flows to relay Ry,, the
contact of relay Ry, remains closed.
3.When the main switch is set to OFF, current to
relay
Ry, is interrupted. This opens the contact
of relay
Ry, to stop the power supply to the
control unit. When the switch is released, it
automatically returns to the neutral position, but
relay Ry, stays in the OFF state.
4. When the ignition switch is set to OFF while
relay Ry, in the main switch is ON, relay
Ry, is
forced to the OFF state just like when the main
switch is set to OFF. Even if the ignition switch
is set to ON again, relay
Ry, stays in the OFF
state until the main switch is set to ON.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTSECU terminal voltage
DESCRIPTION OF OPERATIONdThe control switch is a switch in which the SET,
RESUME and CANCEL switches are integrated.
Therefore, different resistance values are used for
the individual switches to change the outputs
(voltages) to the control unit. Current flows through
fuse No. @ of J/B and through the control switch to
the control unit.
1. SET switchWhen the cruise control switch is ON, if the SET
switch is set to ON while vehicle speed is within
a range from about 40 to 145 km/h (25 to 90
mph), the vehicle starts cruising at the speed. If
the SET switch is kept at ON during cruise
operation, the vehicle coasts, and starts cruising
at the speed reached when the SET switch is
set to OFF.
2. RESUME switch
Even if cruise operation is canceled, the vehicle
resumes cruising at the speed set before the
cancellation. Both when the main switch is set
to OFF and when the vehicle speed is reduced
to less than 40 km/h (25 mph) , the vehicle will
not resume cruising at the previously set speed
even if the RESUME switch is set to ON. If the
RESUME switch is kept at ON during cruise
LJoperation, the engine accelerates, and the vehi-
cle starts cruising at the speed reached when
the RESUME switch was set to OFF. (However,
when the vehicle speed is raised to more than
145 km/h (90 mph), the vehicle cruises at
approximately 145 km/h {90 mph).
3. CANCEL switch
When the CANCEL switch is set to ON during
cruise operation, the cancel signal is input to the
control unit which internally interrupts the power
supply to the vacuum pump assembly for
cancellation of cruise operation.

DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION
The vehicle speed sensor, mounted in the transmission, delivers pulse signals proportional to the rotational
speed of the transmission output gear (vehicle speed) to the control unit. (Four pulse signals generated per
rotation of the output gear) Since the vehicle speed sensor is of the electronic type, the power is supplied
through the ignition switch (IG,).
The vehicle speed sensor is a reed switch type and is mounted in the speedometer. It sends pulse signals
proportional to the rotational speed of the transmission output gear (vehicle speed) to the control unit. (Four
pulse signals generated per rotation of the output gear)

DESCRIPTION OF OPERATIONThe vacuum pump assembly consists of a di-
aphragm type negative pressure pump that is driven
by a DC motor, and two solenoid valves (control
valve and relief valve) and is controlled by the.
control unit as shown in the following table.
When the brake pedal is depressed during cruise
control operation, the power supply to the vacuum
pump assembly is cut off.

speed control, the cruise control (NC) contact of the
stop light switch is opened to interrupt the power
supply to the vacuum pump assembly for
cancella-tion of vehicle speed control. (Refer to P. 13-I 67.) At
the same time, the stop light (NO) contact is closed.
As a result, a cancel signal is input to the control unit
which internally interrupts the vacuum pump
assembly drive circuit.

DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION‘\JThe accelerator pedal switch is used to detect the
operating state of the accelerator pedal. It is one of
the sensors of the
ELC4A/T automatic transmis-
sion. Since the accelerator pedal is not operated
during vehicle speed control,.the cruise control unit
forces transistor
Tr, into the OFF state, creating the
same state as when the accelerator pedal switch is
placed in the OFF state.

DESCRIPTION OF OPERATIONOn a vehicle with cruise control, the OD switch ON signal is input through the cruise control unit to the
ELC-4AIT control unit.
When the vehicle speed control is in the overdrive mode, if the actual vehicle speed falls more than about 7
km/h (4 mph) below the set vehicle speed, the cruise control unit forces transistor
Tr, into the OFF state. This
cancels the overdrive mode because no OD switch ON signal is input to the
ELC-4PJT control unit.
