T FUSE DESCRIPTION Main Fuse Block The main fuse block is located on the right side of the engine compartment and contains nine fuses and two relays. -1 Fuse Box Fuse block No.1 is located above the dead pedal of the driver side. The fuse box cover shows the speci- fied fuse locations. A circuit breaker is included in the fuse box to protect the heater blower motor circuit. Fuse block No.2 is located to the side of the battery in the trunk compartment. 45UOTX-016 REPLACEMENT Caution Determine and correct the cause of a burnt fuse before replacing it. If the fuse is replaced before doing this, it may burn again. Plate type 1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. 2. Replace the failed fuse with the fuse puller. 3. Reconnect the negative battery cable. Cartridge-type 80A fuse (Black) 1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. 2. Remove the fuse block mounting nuts, and remove the service cover. 3. Remove the fuse installation bolts, and pull out the fuse. 4. Install the new fuse and the fuse installation bolts. 5. Install the main fuse block. 6. Reconnect the negative battery cable.

CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM T Inspection Procedure Self-diagnosis 1. Connect a 1.4W test light between terminals D and F, of the cruise control unit connector. Note There is no wire in terminal D of the connector. Push the test light through the connector and touch the cor- responding pin on the control unit. 2. Turn the ignition switch to ON. 3. Turn the cruise control on by pressing the MAlN switch. The MAlN indicator light will come on. 4. Press and hold the RESUMEIACCEL switch for more than 3 seconds. The test light will illuminate for 3 se- conds and go out for 2 seconds. 5. The on-board diagnosis system is activated and the test light will flash if there is a problem. Refer to the chart be- low to obtain the problem code number. Note The cruise control system will not operate in self-diag- nosis mode. 6. After retrieving the code(s), drive the vehicle at more than 16 kmlh (10 MPH) or press the MAlN switch to deactivate self-diagnosis. The MAlN indicator light will go off. 7. Follow the action corresponding to the problem code. Service Code Table If there are two or more problems in the system, the problem with the highest priority will be indicated.

T 2 CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM PRESS 45UOTX-209 Inspection Procedure Quick inspection 1. Connect a 1.4W test light between terminals D and F, of the cruise control unit connector. u Note There is no wire in terminal D of the connector. Push the test light through the connector and touch the cor- responding pin on the control unit. 2. Turn the ignition switch to ON. 3. Shift the selector lever to D or R range. 4. Verify that the MAlN switch is off. (The MAlN indicator light will be off .) 5. Turn the RESUMEIACCEL switch and the MAlN switch simultaneously to activate the system inspection. The MAlN indicator light will come on. 6. Operate each switch as described below and obtain the problem code numbers. Note The cruise control system will not operate in self-diag- nosis mode. 7. After retrieving the code(s), press the MAlN switch to deactivate the system inspection. The MAlN indicator light will go off. 8. Follow the action corresponding to the problem code. --, Service Code Table Press SETICOAST switch Procedure Press RESUMEIACCEL switch Pattern of output signal (Test light) ON OFF nn M nn Depress brake pedal ON OFF ON Drive vehicle above 40 km/h (25 MPH) Turn ignition switch to ON and shift the selector lever to P or N range (For AT) Depress clutch pedal (For MT) Code No. oN OFF Action lnspect cruise control switch (Refer to page T-106) lnspect cruise control switch (Refer to page T-106) lnspect stoplight switches (Refer to pages T-105 and T-56) lnspect parwneutral switch (Refer to section K) or clutch switch (Refer to page T-105) lnspect vehicle speed sensor or wire harness (Refer to page T-106) Gartner Banana
