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.

REPAIR
NOTE: If rotary coupler is to be re-used a
piece of adhesive tape should be placed
around the moulding in position A to
prevent rotation. Failure to do this may result in
damage to the wires inside the coupler.
6.Release clips securing rotary coupler to column
stalk assembly.
7.Remove rotary coupler from column stalk
assembly.
CAUTION: Ensure front wheels are in the
straight ahead position before removal
and refitting. Store in a plastic bag. DO
NOT rotate mechanism whilst removed.
Refit
8.Reverse removal procedure. Ensuring that the
column harnesses are not trapped by the
column shroud.
NOTE: If original rotary coupler is to be
fitted and there is evidence of tampering, it
is imperative that the coupler is
centralised.
See SUPPLEMENTARY RESTRAINT
SYSTEM, Repair, Rotary Coupler
NOTE: If a new rotary coupler is to be
fitted and the sealing tape is broken it
MUST NOT be used. Ensure rotary coupler
lugs are correctly engaged in the rear of the
steering wheel.ACTUATOR - V8i

STEERING

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION DESCRIPTION
The power assisted steering system incorporates a
compression joint in the lower shaft, designed to
collapse on impact and for certain countries, an air
bag located in the centre of the steering wheel.
The mis-alignment of the upper steering column with
the steering box and the inclusion of two universal
joints and a compression joint in the lower shaft, is
also designed to prevent frontal impact moving the
column toward the driver.
The steering box is located behind the first cross
member of the chassis and is connected to the road
wheels by the drag link and track rod. An hydraulic
damper absorbs shocks in the steering, caused by
road wheel deflections when operating on rough
terrain.Power steering system
The power steering system comprises a hydraulic
pump which is belt driven from the engine and
supplied with fluid from a reservoir that also acts as a
cooler.
The steering box houses a self neutralizing rotary
valve which is part of the worm/valve assy and a
hydraulic piston/rack to assist the mechanical
operation.
The rotary valve which is operated by movement of
the steering wheel, directs fluid pressure to the
appropriate side of the hydraulic piston/rack to provide
assistance.
