DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM - V8i/Tdi AUTO EDC
Description
The cruise control system consists of
electro-mechanical devices, and comprises of the
following components.
ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT (ECU)
The microprocessor based ECU evaluates the signals
provided by the driver controls, brake pedal switch,
clutch pedal switch on manual models, and the
vehicle speed sensor. The ECU activates the vacuum
pump as required. The ECU also has a memory
function for set speed storage.
Driver operated switches
The main cruise control switch is located in the
auxiliary switch panel and activates the cruise control
system. The steering wheel switches provide
'set/accelerate' and 'resume/decelerate' features.
These switches provide the interface between driver
and cruise control system.
Brake pedal switch
The brake pedal switch is located under the lower
dash attached to the brake pedal mounting bracket.
The switch provides for fast disengagement of the
cruise control system and rapid return of the throttle
levers to the idle position when the brake pedal is
applied.
Clutch pedal switch
The clutch pedal switch is located under the lower
dash attached to the clutch pedal mounting bracket.
The switch provides for fast disengagement of the
cruise control system and rapid return of the throttle
levers to the idle position when the clutch pedal is
applied.Vehicle speed sensor
The vehicle speed sensor is located on the side of the
transfer box adjacent to park brake. The sensor
provides road speed data to the ECU. The cruise
control system cannot be engaged until the road
speed exceeds 45 km/h, (28 mph) the system will
automatically disengage at a road speed of 42 km/h
(26 mph).
Vacuum pump
The vacuum pump is energised when the main cruise
control switch is operated, and is actuated by the
steering wheel and brake pedal switches. The pump
provides a vacuum source to the cruise control
actuator. A control valve in the pump provides for
steady increase of road speed or purge of the system
when the brake pedal is applied.
Actuator
The actuator provides the servo mechanism link
between the cruise control system and throttle linkage
and is operated by vacuum from the vacuum pump.
Neutral lockout relay - automatic vehicles
The relay module is located in the right hand side
footwell, accessible by removing the trim casing.
The function of the relay module is to disengage the
cruise control system if neutral, or park, is selected in
the main gearbox, when the system is engaged.
Engine speed trip ECU - Manual vehicles
This unit is located in the right hand side footwell,
accessible by removing the trim casing.
The function of the unit is to disengage cruise control
if engine speed exceeds 5000 rev/min.

CRUISE CONTROL

FAULT DIAGNOSIS ROAD TEST
CAUTION: Do not engage cruise control
when vehicle is being used in low transfer
gear or reverse.
WARNING: The use of cruise control is not
recommended on winding, snow covered
or slippery roads or in heavy traffic
conditions where a constant speed cannot be
maintained.
1.Start engine, depress main control switch to
actuate cruise control system. Accelerate to
approximately 50 km/h, (30 mph), operate
'set/acc'switch, immediately release switch,
remove foot from accelerator pedal. Vehicle
should maintain speed at which'set/acc'switch
was operated.
2.Operate'set/acc'switch and hold at that
position, vehicle should accelerate smoothly until
switch is released. Vehicle should now maintain
new speed at which'set/acc'switch was
released.
3.Momentarily touch and release'set/acc'switch,
vehicle speed should increase 1.6 km/h (1 mph)
for each touch. Note that five touches will
increase speed 8 km/h (5 mph).
4.Apply'res/decel'switch while vehicle is in cruise
control mode, cruise control should disengage.
Slow to approximately 55 km/h, (35 mph)
operate'res/decel'switch, immediately release
switch and remove foot from accelerator, vehicle
should smoothly accelerate to previously set
speed. Increase speed using accelerator pedal,
release pedal, vehicle should return to previously
set speed.
NOTE: The cruise control system fitted to
the diesel engine is not as responsive as
that fitted to the petrol engine, due to the
characteristics of diesel engines. Therefore, at
speeds below approx. 65 km/h (40 mph), the
vehicle speed may drop when cruise is selected
and then slowly regain the 'set' speed.5.Operate brake pedal, cruise control system
should immediately disengage returning vehicle
to driver control at accelerator pedal. Operate
'res/decel'switch, vehicle should accelerate to
previously set speed without driver operation of
accelerator pedal.
6.Operate'res/decel'switch and allow vehicle to
decelerate to below 42 km/h, (26 mph). Operate
'res/decel'switch, cruise control system should
remain disengaged.
7.Operate'set/acc'switch below 40 km/h, (28
mph), cruise control system should remain
disengaged. Accelerate, using accelerator pedal
to above 45 km/h, (28 mph), operate'res/decel'
switch, and remove foot from accelerator pedal,
vehicle should smoothly adjust to previously
memorised speed.
8. Automatic vehicles- select neutral, system
should disengage.Manual vehicles- depress
clutch, system should disengage.
9.Cruise at 80 km/h (50 mph), declutch, select
neutral, remove foot from clutch. Operate
'res/decel'switch. Engine should rev to 5000
rev/min, cruise control disengages, engine
returns to idle.
10.Engage forward gear. Operate'res/decel'
switch. Remove foot from accelerator. Speed
should accelerate to previous set speed.
11.Depress main control switch in control system
should immediately disengage and erase
previously set speed from ECU memory.

Electrical Trouble Shooting Manual.
ELECTRICAL TESTS
Electrical functionality can be checked using
TestBook.
CABLE SETTING - TDi AUTOMATIC MODELS
1.An incorrectly adjusted kickdown cable can
prevent correct operation of the cruise control
system.

REPAIR ACTUATOR LINK-SETTING - V8i
Service repair no - 19.75.21
NOTE: Setting procedure is carried out at
minimum throttle condition only.
1.Ensure ignition is switched 'OFF'.
2.Check clearance between inside edge of
actuator link and recessed diameter of throttle
lever. Clearance should be 0.2 to 2.0 mm.
Link - adjust
3.Remove link from actuator.
4.Rotate socket joint adjuster as necessary.
5.Refit link to actuator and recheck clearance
between link and lever.
