GENERAL
INFORMATION

Before starting diagnosis and repair procedures for
a speed control malfunction, verify that the speed
control wire harness is properly connected to all con nectors. Refer to Diagnosis Chart.

ROAD
TEST
Road test vehicle to verify reports of speed control
system malfunction. The road test should include at
tention to the speedometer. Speedometer operation should be smooth and without flutter at all speeds. Flutter in the speedometer indicates a problem
which might cause surging in the speed control sys
tem. The cause of any speedometer deficiencies should be corrected before proceeding.

INOPERATIVE SYSTEM
If road test verifies a system problem and the
speedometer operates properly, check for:
• loose electrical and vacuum connections at the
servo.

• check for correct installation of the vacuum check
valve in the hose from servo to vacuum source (Gas
Engine Only). The word VAC on the valve must
point toward the vacuum source. • corrosion that should be removed from electrical
terminals and a light coating of Mopar Multi-Pur
pose Grease, or equivalent, applied. • secure attachment of both ends of speed control ca

ble.

CHECKING
FOR DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE
(1) When trying to verify a speed control system
electrical problem, use a DRB II Scan Tool to find
the cause. Refer to Powertrain Diagnostic Procedures manual. If the DRBII is not available, the Diagnostic Trou
ble Code (DTC) may be determined with the follow ing method: (a) With key inserted in ignition switch, cycle
switch to ON position 3 times. On third cycle, leave
switch in ON position. (b) After switch has been cycled 3 times, observe
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (CHECK ENGINE) on instrument cluster. If a DTC is present, the code

will be displayed in a series of flashes representing
digits.
Three flashes in rapid succession, a slight
pause, then 4 flashes in rapid succession would in dicate DTC 34.
(2) If a DTC 34 is observed, perform the tests in
the sections Electrical Tests at Servo and Electrical
Tests at Powertrain Control Module.
If a DTC 15 is observed, perform the test for a
faulty Vehicle Speed Sensor.
(3) If a fault code 11 is observed (Diesel only), per
form the test for a faulty engine speed sensor. Refer
to the Powertrain Diagnostics Procedures Manual.
(4) Correct any problems found when performing
these tests and recheck for DTC if changes were made.

VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR TEST
For testing of the Vehicle Speed Sensor and related
components refer to the Powertrain Diagnostic Proce
dures manual.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL SYSTEM ELECTRICAL
TESTS
Vehicle speed control systems may be tested using
two different methods. One involves the use of the DRBII Scan Tool. If this test method is desired,
please refer to the Powertrain Diagnostic Procedures manual. The other test method uses a voltmeter. The volt
meter method is described in the following tests.
If any information is needed concerning wiring, re
fer to Group 8W - Wiring Diagrams.

CAUTION:
When test probing
for
voltage
or
continuity
at
electrical
connectors, care must
be
taken
not
to
damage connector, terminals,
or
seals.
If

these components
are
damaged,
intermittent
or
complete system
failure
may
occur.
ELECTRICAL
TESTS
AT
SERVO
(1) Turn ignition switch to ON position.
(2) Push speed control switch to ON position.
(3) Connect the negative lead of a voltmeter to a
good chassis ground near the servo.

read approximately battery voltage. If not, check for loose connections, brake switch adjustment or, repair
the main harness as necessary.
(5) Connect a jumper wire between the male and
female terminals of the blue wire with red tracer.
The other 3 male terminals from the servo should show battery voltage. If not, replace the servo. (6) Turn ignition OFF. Using an ohmmeter, con
nect one lead to a good body ground. Touch the other
lead to the black (BK) wire terminal in the 4-way
connector of the main harness. The meter should
show continuity. If not, repair the ground circuit as
necessary. A

(2) Connect negative lead of voltmeter to a good
body ground near the module. (3) For the following tests, the ignition switch
must be in the ON position. Refer to Fig. 4 for con
troller terminal locations. Touch the positive lead of
the voltmeter to the terminal in cavity number 33.
With the speed control switch in the OFF position,
the voltmeter should read 0 volts. With the speed
control switch in the ON position, the voltmeter should read battery voltage. If not, repair the main
harness as necessary.

from battery voltage to 0 volts for as long as the switch is held. If not, perform the speed control
switch test. If the switch is not at fault, then check
the main harness and repair as necessary.
(6) Touch the positive lead of the voltmeter to the
terminal in cavity number 50. The voltmeter should read 0 volts with the speed control switch in either
the OFF or ON position. With switch in either RE SUME or SET position, the voltmeter should read
battery voltage. If not, perform the speed control switch test. If the switch is not at fault, then check
the main harness and repair as necessary.
(7) Touch the positive lead of the voltmeter to the
terminal in cavity number 49. The voltmeter should read 0 volts with the switch in the OFF position.
With the switch in the ON position, the voltmeter should read battery voltage. The voltmeter will con
tinue to read battery voltage when either the SET or
RESUME switch is pressed. If not, perform the speed control switch test. If the switch is not at fault, then
check the main harness and repair as necessary . (8) Turn key OFF. Using an ohmmeter, connect
one lead to a good body ground and touch the other
lead to the terminal in cavity number 29. With the
brake pedal released, the meter should show continu ity. When the pedal is depressed, the meter should
show open circuit.

VEHICLE
SPEED
CONTROL SWITCH TEST
To check the switch, remove the switch from its
mounting position. Use an ohmmeter and refer to the
Switch Continuity Chart to determine if continuity is
correct. If there is no continuity at any one of the
switch positions, replace the switch.

STOP
LAMP SWITCH TEST
(1) Disconnect connector at stop lamp switch. Us
ing an ohmmeter, continuity may be checked at
switch side of connector as follows (Fig. 5): (a) With brake pedal released, there should be:
• continuity between black (BK) and white with
pink tracer (WT/PK) wires
• continuity between yellow with red tracer (YL/RD) and dark blue with red tracer (DB/RD) wires
• No continuity between pink (PK) and white (WT)

wires.

lamp switch is defective or out of adjustment.
Stop lamp switch adjustment is detailed in Group 5 -
Brakes.

VACUUM SUPPLY TEST
(1) Disconnect vacuum hose at the servo and in
stall a vacuum gauge in the hose (Fig. 6). (2) Start engine and observe gauge at idle. Vac
uum gauge should read at least ten inches of mer
cury. (3) If vacuum does not meet this requirement,
check for vacuum leaks or poor engine performance.
