Replacement of the rotor is required because it does not meet
design specifications.
Some conditions indicate that a service or part replacement
is suggested because the part is close to the end of its useful life
or addresses a customer's need, convenience or request. If a
customer's vehicle has one of these conditions, the procedure may be
only to suggest service.
Example:
An exhaust pipe is rusted, corroded or weak, but no leaks are
present. In this case, the exhaust pipe has not failed.
However, there is evidence that the pipe may need replacement
in the near future. Replacement of the pipe may be suggested
for the customer's convenience in avoiding a future problem.
Example:
The customer desires improved ride and/or handling, but the
vehicle's shocks or struts have not failed. In this case,
replacement may be suggested to satisfy the customer's
wishes. In this case, replacement of the shocks or struts may
not be sold as a requirement.
A customer, of course, has the choice of whether or not a
shop will service his or her vehicle. He or she may decide not to
follow some of your suggestions. When a repair is required, a MAP
shop must refuse partial service on that system if, in the judgment of
the service provider, proceeding with the work could create or
continue an unsafe condition. When a procedure states that required
or suggested repair or replacement is recommended, the customer must
be informed of the generally acceptable repair/replacement options
whether or not performed by the shop.
When presenting suggested repairs to the customer, you must
present the facts, allowing the customer to draw their own conclusions
and make an informed decision about how to proceed.
The following reasons may be used for required and suggested
services. These codes are shown in the "Code" column of the MAP
Uniform Inspection & Communications Standards that follow:
Reasons to Require Repair or Replacement
A - Part no longer performs intended purpose
B - Part does not meet a design specification (regardless of
performance)
C - Part is missing
NOTE: When a repair is required, the shop must refuse partial
service to the system in question, if the repair creates
or continues an unsafe condition.
Reasons to Suggest Repair or Replacement
1 - Part is close to the end of its useful life (just above
discard specifications, or weak; failure likely to occur
soon, etc.)
2 - To address a customer need, convenience, or request (to
stiffen ride, enhance performance, eliminate noise, etc.)
3 - To comply with maintenance recommended by the vehicle's
Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)
4 - Technician's recommendation based on substantial and
informed experience
NOTE: Suggested services are always optional. When presenting
suggested repairs to the customer, you must present the
facts, allowing the customer to draw their own conclusions

CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH FUNCTION TEST
NOTE: If vehicle speed decreases approximately 9 MPH below set
speed, set speed will be cancelled.
1) Cruise control switch is part of multifunction switch
mounted on steering column. To operate cruise control system, turn
ignition on. Turn cruise control switch to ON position. Ensure switch
indicator light comes on.
NOTE: Speed will not set beyond system limit of 90 MPH.
2) With cruise control switch in ON position, drive vehicle
between 25 and 90 MPH. Press and release SET button. Vehicle speed
should stay at set speed. Instrument cluster cruise indicator light
should come on. To increase set speed, turn control switch to RESUME
position and hold until new set speed is reached.
3) To lower set speed, press SET button and hold until new
set speed is reached. To return to set speed after cancellation, move
resume switch from ON to OFF position. Vehicle speed should return to
previous setting before cancellation. Set speed should cancel when any
of the following occurs:
* Brake pedal is pressed.
* Clutch pedal is pressed.
* Transmission is shifted to Neutral or Park.
* Cruise control main switch is turned off.
* Ignition switch is turned off.
SELF-DIAGNOSTICS
1) Self-diagnostics should be performed when cruise control
cancels without the driver using normal cancel modes. Diagnosis
connector is located on right side of fuse box. Use analog voltmeter
or Multi-Use Tester (MB991341) for code retrieval.
2) Use multi-use tester according to operating instructions
provided with tester. Connect leads of analog voltmeter between cruise
control terminal and ground terminal of self-diagnostic connector. See
Fig. 6 . Read voltmeter needle sweeps to determine trouble code.
NOTE: On 1991 models, codes No. 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17 will be
displayed whether malfunction is present or not.
3) Once trouble codes have been displayed, see SELF-
DIAGNOSTIC CODE CHART to determine appropriate CIRCUIT TEST. See
Fig. 7 or 8.
4) To clear trouble codes, either disconnect battery cable or
turn ignition on. Turn main cruise control switch and set switch to ON
position. Within one second turn resume switch to ON position.
5) Hold stoplight switch and cruise control switch in ON
position for more than 5 seconds. Verify codes are cleared.

turned to ON position, battery voltage should be present on terminal
No. 7 of cruise control unit connector.
2) If voltage is not present, check fuse No. 3 and replace as
necessary. If fuse is okay, check and repair harness as necessary.
Terminal No. 10 should be grounded at all times. If terminal No. 10 is
not grounded, repair harness.

1) When cruise control main switch is in On position, voltage
should not be present on terminal No. 8 of cruise control unit.
2) When vehicle is accelerated using resume switch, voltage
should not be present on terminal No. 9 of cruise control unit. When
vehicle is coasting by using set switch, battery voltage should be
present on terminal No. 9.
3) When vehicle is accelerated using resume switch, battery
voltage should be present on terminal No. 20 of cruise control unit.
When vehicle is coasting by using set switch, voltage should not be
present on terminal No. 20 of cruise control unit. If circuit does not
test correctly, replace actuator as necessary or repair harness.
Test No. 6 (Stoplight Switch Circuit)

present on terminal No. 3 of cruise control unit. If voltage is not
present, adjust or replace brake switch.
2) Battery voltage should be present at all times on terminal
No. 11 of cruise control unit. If voltage is not present, check fuse
no. 7. If fuse is okay, repair harness.
Test No. 7 (Inhibitor Switch Circuit)

position, voltage should not be present on terminal No. 2 of cruise
control unit.
2) When gear shift lever is moved to any other position,
battery voltage should be present on terminal No. 2 of cruise control
unit. If circuit does not test correctly, replace switch as necessary
or repair harness.
Test No. 8 (Clutch Switch Circuit)
When clutch pedal is pressed, battery voltage should be
present at terminal No. 1 of cruise control unit. If circuit does not
