(1) Basic position
The basic position is preset as a map value Optimized
according to the engine coolant temperature. The idle
speed control servo is activated to conform to this position,
thereby maintaining the optimum idle speed.
This basic position of the idle control servo
diiectlycorresponds to the basic idle speed described earlier.

For models equipped with the automatic
transaxle.when
the position of the shift lever is anywhere other than the
“P” or “N” range, the servo position is increased in
proportion to the load of the torque-converter.
(3) Idle control servo position during operation of the power
steering system
When the power steering oil pressure switch is turned on
because the steering wheel is being turned while
thevehicle is stationary, the servo position is changed to
correspond to the increased power steering pump load.
(4) Servo position while the air conditioner is being operated
When the air conditioner switch is turned on, the servo
position is changed to correspond to the increased air
conditioner load.
(5) High altitude compensation
A correction is performed by increasing the opening of the
idle speed control servo to allow increasing bypass air flow
in order to compensate for the loss of intake air volume
(asmeasured by weight) caused by a reduction in intake air
density due to a drop in barometric pressure at increased
altitude.
(6) “Training” function
A “training” function that enters a value based upon the
engine rpm and the target rpm into the memon/,
andcorrects the servo position according to this value, is
provided in order to obtain an even higher degree of
precision of position control.

When there is a cancellation of the auto-cruise control system
operation not intentionally made by the driver, it is possible to
determine which circuit or what operation caused the cancella-
tion of the auto-cruise control system by following procedures,
(1) Stop the vehicle with the ignition switch and MAIN switch
in the ON position.
NOTETurning OFF either the ignition switch or MAIN switch
erases the diagnosis data. Be sure to keep the ignition
switch and MAIN switch in the ON position until you finish
the inspection.
(2) Connect a voltmeter to the diagnosis connector of the
junction block and read the output code.
(3) Check the output code against the following table to isolate
the cause for cancellation of the auto-cruise control mode.

Y 5-FUEL SYSTEM
- Auto-cruise Control System14-71ACTUATOR CONSTRUCTION
The actuator unit consists of a DC motor, a worm
gear, a worm wheel, a planetary pinion gear, a
magnetic clutch, and two limit switches.
The magnetic clutch consists of a magnetic coil
mounted to the actuator case and a clutch plate
connected to the ring gear of the planetary wheel
gear by a spring.The magnetic clutch is energized and deenergized
by the control signal supplied by the control unit.
The clutch transmits the rotation of the DC motor to
the selector drive shaft, and allows the selector
drive shaft to rotate freely with the ring gear
regardless of whether the DC motor is being
energized or not.

___ -ACTUATOR OPERATION
IF SET TO A FIXED SPEED
When the SET switch is set to the ON position, the
control unit causes current to flow to the actuator’s
electromagnetic clutch coil; the clutch plate is then
attracted, the ring gear of the planetary gear is
secured, and, at the same time, the path from the
ECU to the DC motor becomes conductive and the
DC motor begins to rotate at high speed.As shown in the illustration, the rotation of the DC
motor is transmitted to the worm gear
--, worm
wheel, sun gear (unified)
+ planetary pinion.
Because the ring gear is fixed at this time, the
planetary pinion revolves while rotating around the
sun gear, and, because the planetary pinions are
installed to the carrier, the carrier and the unifiedselectcr drive shaft and selector rotate.

Current Flow in PULL Rotation
.(soiid-line arrows)
The control unit microcomputer output causes transistors
Tr,and Tr, to be turned ON. Then, current flows from transistor
Tr,to DC motor,‘transistor
Tr,, and ground. As a result, the DC
motor rotates in the PULL direction.
Current Flow in RELEASE Rotation (dotted-line arrows)
Microcomputer output causes transistors
Tr2 and Tr3 to be
turned ON. Then, current flows from transistor
Tr3 to DC
motor, transistor
Tr2, and ground, resulting in the DC motor
rotating in the RELEASE direction.
The electromagnetic clutch is controlled by the MAIN and
CANCEL switches. When the MAIN switch is in the
01\L.position, it keeps the clutch plate attracted under norm
conditions (i.e. where there is no cancel condition).

When Canceled by the Stop Light Switch (broad
solid-line arrows)
The stop light switch is a four-pole type that
integrates the switch for the stop light (NO) with
that for the auto-cruise control (NC).
When the brake pedal is depressed, the contacts forthe auto-cruise control (NC) open, cutting off the
circuit to energize the electromagnetic clutch coil.
At the same time, the contacts for the stop light
(NO) close to allow a cancel signal to be input from
the
12-V power supply of the control unit to the
cancel circuit and to the microcomputer. As a result,the transistor which energizes the actuator electro-
magnetic clutch coil turns OFF and the electro-
magnetic clutch coil grounding circuit is cut off, thus
canceling the auto-cruise control mode.
When Canceled by the Clutch Switch (thin
solid-line arrows)
When the clutch pedal is depressed, the clutch
switch is turned ON and the battery voltage is
applied to the cancel circuit of the control unit. then,a cancel signal is input to the microcomputer.
causing the transistor that energizes the actuator
electromagnetic clutch coil to turn OFF. This results
in the electromagnetic clutch coil grounding circuit
bma$ndge cut off, which cancels the auto-cruise control
When Canceled by the Selector Lever (position“N”) (dotted-line arrows)
When the transaxle control selector lever is placed
in the “N” (neutral) position, the inhibitor switch is
turned ON and, as a result, current flows from the
control unit to the inhibitor switch, starter, and
ground. Then, a cancel signal is input from the
cancel circuit to the control unit, causing the
transistor which energizes the actuator electro-
magnetic clutch coil to be turned OFF. As a result,
the electromagnetic clutch coil grounding circuit is
cut off and the auto-cruise control mode is canceled.Although a small current (voltage 5 V) flows through
the starter, it is not activated.
MAIN switchLIMIT SWITCH
The function of the limit switch is to shut off the flow of current
to the motor and apply an electric brake to quickly stop the
motor if the throttle valve becomes either fully open or fully
closed, thus preventing problems which might be caused by an
overload of the motor.
The illustration at left shows the condition of the limit switch
when the throttle valve is fully closed, indicating that
.limitswitch
(1) is in the OFF and the RELEASE circuit is being
deenergized.

LOBRO JOINTRl6CMAThe
L6bro joint absorbs longitudinal displacement
and angle change and prevents the transmission of
vibration. It has the following features.
0Its constant velocity performance is excellent,
due to the inclination of the ball grooves of the
inner and outer races at same degree in
oppo-site directions.l It has a smaller sliding resistance in the axial
direction than a spline type slip joint.
l
It has smaller rotational variations, and hence is
more suitable for high speed operation than
other constant velocity joints due to smaller ball
play achieved by crossing the ball grooves of the
inner and outer races.

SUSPENSION BUSHINGS
In order to improve both the driving stability and
riding comfort even further, and to reduce vibration
and noise, the optimum spring characteristic has
been employed for each suspension bushing.
The front end of the trailing arm is elastically
coupled to the body via a rubber bushing of high
spring capacity. This rubber bushing has an asym-
metrical non-linear characteristic in the front-rear
direction. and therefore functions to reduce thetransmission of tire vibration input to the body itself.
Individual independent bushings (with non-linear
characteristics) are also employed at the couplings
to the body of the shock absorbers and the coil
springs; these, together with the use of spring pads
with large channels, serve to reduce the transmis-
sion of vibrations to the body, thereby improving
even further the driving stability and riding comfort.
