replacement of rotor according
to OEM specifications.
Surface is scored ....... B ... ( 4) Require reconditioning or
replacement of rotor according

( 1) - Examples of severe corrosion are: composite plate
separated from friction surfaces and cooling fins
cracked or missing.
( 2) - Only applies to vehicles for which OEM "machine to"
specifications exist. If OEM does not supply "machine
to" specifications, the rotor may be worn to discard
specifications.
( 3) - If OEM does not supply "machine to" specifications,
you may machine to discard specifications.
( 4) - Scoring is defined as grooves or ridges in the friction
contact surface. Some vehicle manufacturers require
machining when scoring exceeds their allowable
specifications.

SPEED SENSORS (ELECTRONIC WHEEL AND VEHICLE)

13. If input switch Code 26 is still displayed, go to TEST NO. 14. If
codes are no longer displayed, replace cruise control ECU.
Test No. 9
A malfunction of Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) or incorrect
vacuum in cruise control vacuum pump or actuator may be present.
Probable causes are:
* Malfunction of VSS.
* Malfunction of cruise control vacuum pump.
* Malfunction of actuator.
* Malfunction of cruise control ECU.
1) Check vehicle speed sensor. See VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR TEST
under COMPONENT TESTS. If speed sensor is okay, go to next step. If
speed sensor is defective, replace VSS.
2) Check cruise control vacuum pump. See VACUUM PUMP TEST
under COMPONENT TESTS. If pump is defective, replace pump. If pump is
okay, go to next step.
3) Check actuator. See ACTUATOR TEST under COMPONENT TESTS.
If actuator is defective, replace actuator. If actuator is okay,
replace cruise control ECU.
Test No. 10
A blown bulb in cruise control main switch or malfunction of
cruise control main switch is probable cause of malfunction. Replace
cruise control main switch.
Test No. 11
A malfunction of cruise control main switch, harness or
connector may exist. Probable causes are:
* Malfunction of cruise control main switch.
* Malfunction of connector.
* Malfunction of harness.
1) Check cruise control main switch. See
CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH TESTS under COMPONENT TESTS. If switch is okay,
go to next step. If switch is defective, replace cruise control main
switch.
2) Disconnect cruise control main switch connector C-01. At
harness side of connector, measure voltage between terminal No. 2 and
ground. If battery voltage is present, go to next step. If battery
voltage is not present, check joint connector C-130 and junction block
connector C-80. Repair as necessary. See Figs. 16, 18, 26 and 28. If
connectors are okay and malfunction remains, check harness between
cruise control main switch and power supply. Repair as necessary.
3) Check cruise control main switch connector C-01,
combination meter connector C-04, and joint connector C-130. Repair as
necessary. See Figs. 8, 9, 16 and 28. If connectors are okay and
malfunction remains, check harness between cruise control main switch
and dash lights rheostat. Repair as necessary.
Test No. 12
A malfunction of bulb, connector or harness may exist.
Probable causes are:
* Malfunction of bulb.
* Malfunction of connector.
* Malfunction of harness.
* Malfunction of cruise control ECU.
1) Perform cruise control indicator test. See

Throttle Position Sensor
1) Disconnect sensor connector. Resistance between terminals
No. 1 and 4 should be 3500-6500 ohms. Use an analog ohmmeter to
measure resistance between terminals No. 1 and 3. See Fig. 25.
2) Slowly open throttle valve to wide open throttle.
Resistance should change smoothly as throttle is opened. Replace
throttle position sensor if it does not test as specified.
CRUISE CONTROL INDICATOR TEST
With combination meter (instrument cluster) removed, check
for continuity between terminals No. 4 and 5. See Fig. 33. If there is
no continuity, replace cruise control indicator bulb.

CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH TESTS
CANCEL, SET & RESUME Switches
1) Remove lower steering column cover. Disconnect 2-pin
switch connector. Operate and test switch. When CANCEL switch is
operated between terminals No. 1 and 2, zero ohms resistance should be
indicated.
2) When RESUME switch is operated, 820 ohms resistance should
be present between terminals No. 1 and 2. When SET switch is operated,
2700 ohms resistance should be present between terminals No. 1 and 2.
Replace cruise control switch if it does not test as specified.

Check defogger switch or defogger timer. See COMPONENT TESTS.
INDICATOR LIGHT DOES NOT WORK
Check for burned out bulb, open circuit or poor connection.
INDICATOR LIGHT IS DIM
Check rheostat or indicator bulb.
SYMPTOM TESTS
INPUT SIGNAL INSPECTION
NOTE: The following information only applies to Eclipse and Galant.
NOTE: Perform input signal inspection before proceeding with
SYSTEM TESTS .
Eclipse & Galant
1) Input signal inspection can be performed using scan tool
or an analog voltmeter. To perform inspection using scan tool, go to
next step. To perform inspection using an analog voltmeter, go to step
3).
2) Turn ignition off. Connect scan tool to Data Link
Connector (DLC). Turn ignition on and then off. If buzzer on scan tool\
sounds when ignition was turned on, ECU input signal is normal. If
buzzer did not sound, go to SYSTEM TESTS.
3) Turn ignition off. Connect DTC Check Harness (MB991529) t\
o
DLC terminals No. 4 or 5 (ground) and terminal No. 9. See Fig. 1.
Connect voltmeter leads to check harness leads. Turn ignition switch
on, then off. If voltmeter deflects once when ignition was turned on,
ECU input signal is normal. If voltmeter did not deflect, go to
SYSTEM TESTS .
