Sub fusible link @
vacuum
w-vStop light
Auto-cruisecontrol unit13A0366Description of operation
When the brake pedal is depressed during constant-speedtravel, the stop light switch’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 is
discontinued within the control unit, thereby canceling the
constant-speed travel.
The flow of current is from the sub fusible link

SELF-DIAGNOSIS CHECKSelf-diagnosis checking is performed when there has been an
automatic cancellation, without cancel switch
operati’on.(1) The following method can be used for checking the
diagnosis. Note that the diagnosis check connector is
located under the driver’s side instrument panel.
Connect a voltmeter between the ground terminal and the
terminal for auto-cruise control of the diagnosis check
connector.It is possible to discover which circuit is the cause of the
cancellation by verifying the indication shown by the
voltmeter with the display patterns shown on the next
page.(2) When the diagnosis code No. is displayed, inspect accord-
ing to the inspection chart No. related to each code No.
NOTECanceling the diagnosis codes
The diagnosis codes remain in memory until the battery is
turned off but they can be canceled in the following ways
without disconnecting the battery terminals.
1. By turning on the ignition switch
2.By turning the cruise switch ON while the SET switch is ONand then, within 1 second, turning the RESUME switch
ON. (Put into condition for input check reception)
3.By turning ON set SET switch and stop light switch at the
same time and continuing the ON condition for 5 seconds
or more.
4.By checking that the diagnosis codes are canceled using avoltmeter.

NOTE
1.Each code will be displayed in an order ofpriority beginning from No. 1.
If there is no display, it is possible that
there is a malfunction of the ECU power-
supply circuit or the SET and/or RESUMEswitch, so check according to check
charts
1,2 and 3.
2. Continue each input operation until the
output code is emitted.
If no output codes are emitted for inputs
even though the display pattern is repe-
ated two or more times, there is a
malfunction of the switch sensor.
3.When each input operation is performed and
the signals for the conditions are received by
the computer, each output code will be
repeatedly displayed in the sequence of
priority for as long as that signal continues.
4.If, during the display of output codes, the
input operation is canceled (if, for example,
the SET switch is set from ON to OFF), the
code will be displayed for one cycle of the
display, but will not be displayed during the
next cycle.
This makes it possible, therefore, to check
the OFF condition (existence of not of a
short-circuit of the input line or the switch).
