Sub fusible link @I
Stop lrght
Auto-cruisecontrol unit 13AQ375
Description of operation
When the brake pedal is depressed during constant-speed
travel, the stop light
swrtch’s (NC) contacts for the cruise-control system open, with the result that the current to the
auto-cruise vacuum pump is interrupted, thus canceling the
constant-speed travel.At the same time, moreover, the closing of the (NO) contacts
for the stop light results in the sending of the cancel signal to
the control unit, so that the auto-cruise vacuum pump current isdiscontinued within the control unit, thereby canceling theconstant-speed travel.
The flow of current is from the sub fusible link @ to fuse No. @Iof the junction block, the stop light switch, and the control unit.

7. CHECKING THE PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH CIRCUIT Description of operation
The park/neutral position switch also functions as the switch
for the starter. If the selector lever is moved to the “N”
pos-ition during constant-speed travel, current flows to the con-trol unit, park/neutral position switch, starter motor, and to
ground; the cancel signal is therefore input to the controlunit, thus canceling the constant-speed travel.
