Gruise Control (cont'd)
- How the Circuit Works
The cruise control system uses mechanical and
electrical devices to maintain the car's sDeed at a
setting selected by the driver.
System Description
The cruise control unit receives command signals
from the crurse control main switch and the cruise
control SeVResume switch. With the ignition switch
in ON (ll) or START (lll), voltage is provided to the
cruise control main switch through fuse 14. When
you push the switch to ON, power is provided to the
cruise control unit and the brake switch.
The cruise control unit receives information about
operating conditions from the brake switch, the
vehicle speed sensor (VSS), and the clutch switch
(manual transmission) or the A,/T gear position
switch (automatic transmission). The cruise control
unit then sends signals to the cruise control actuator
which regulates the throttle position to maintain the
selected speed. The conlrol unit compares the
actual speed of the car to the selected speed. The
control unit then uses the result of that comoarison
to open or close the throttle.
The brake switch releases the system's control of
the throttle at the instant you press on the brake
pedal. The switch sends a signal to the control unit
by removing power from the normally closed brake
input (GRY wire), and providing power at the
normally open brake input (GRN/vVHT wire). The
control unit responds by allowing the throttle to
close. The clutch switch or the A,/T gear position
switch sends a "disengage" signal to the control unit
that also allows the throttle to close.
The cruise control system will set and automatically
maintain any speed above 25 mph (40 km/h). To set
it, make sure the main switch is on and the switch
indicator is on. Then, after reaching the desired
speed, press the SET switch. This sends a "set"
signal to the cruise control unit which, in turn,
controls the cruise control actuator to maintain the
set speed.
When you push the SET switch and the cruise
control system is on, the "cruise control" ON
indicator lights up.
34-4
(
You can cancel the cruise control system by
turning the main switch off . This removes power to
the control unit and erases the set speed from
memory. lf the system is disengaged temporarily
by the brake switch, or clutch switch, and the car's
speed is still above 25 mph, press the resume
switch: the car will automatically return to the
previously set speed.
For gradual acceleration without pressing the
accelerator pedal, push the RESUME switch and
hold it there. This will send an "acceleration" signal
to the control unit. When you release the switch, the
system will be reprogrammed for the new speed. To
slow the car down. oush the SET switch in and hold
it there. This sends a "deceleration" signal to the
control unit, causing the car to coast. When the
desired speed is reached, release the SET switch.
This reprograms the system tor the new speed.
Refer to the Service Manual (Section 23, Electrical)
tor specific tests or troubleshooting procedures.

Rear Window Defogger
- How the Circuit Works
'96198 Models
Voltage is applied at all limes through tuse 50 to the
rear window detogger relay (contacts). With the
ignition switch in ON (ll), voltage is applied through
tuse 16 to the rear window defogger switch.
When you turn the switch ON, voltage is applied to
the defogger timer circuit. The timer circuit supplies
voltage to the rear window defogger relay (coil). The
relay energizes and supplies voltage to the rear
window defogger. The defogger grid then heats the
rear window to remove any condensation from the
glass.
The defogger timer circuit will automatically turn off
the rear window defogger after about 25 minutes.
Refer to the Service Manual (Section 23, Electrical)
for specific tests or troubleshooting procedures.
'99100 Models
Voltage is applied at all times through fuse 50 to the
rear window delogger relay (contacts). With lhe
ignition switch in ON (ll), voltage is applied through
fuse 16 to the heater control oanel.
When you turn the rear window defogger switch
ON, a signal is sent to lhe defogger timer circuit
built-into the heater control oanel. The timer circuit
supplies voltage to the rear window defogger relay
(coil). The relay energizes and supplies voltage to
the rear window defogger. The defogger grid then
heats the rear window to remove anv condensation
from the glass.
The defogger timer circuit will automatically turn otf
the rear window defogger after about 25 minutes.

A/T Gear Position Indicator (conrd)
- How the Circuit Works
With the ignition switch in ON (ll) or START (lll),
voltage is applied to the A,/T gear position indicator.
The A,/T gear position switch provides a ground for
each position. As an input is grounded, its indicator
light comes on. lf you select R, for example, ground
will be provided to the input of the A,/T gear position
indicato( and the R indicator will come on.
With the headlight switch in PARK or HEAD, voltage
is applied to the RED/BLK wire terminal. This
changes the indicator panel illumination from fixed
to controlled by the dash lights dimmer input
through the RED wire.
When the powertrain (all except '96-'98 CVT) or
transmission ('96198 CVT) control module (PCM or
TCM) detects an abnormality in the automatic
transmission control system, or when you request
diagnostic trouble codes through the service check
connector, the PCM or TCM will make the D4 (D for
CVT) indicator light blink.
Refer to the Service Manual (Section 14,
Automatic Transmission) for specific tests or
troubleshooting procedures.

Power Windows (contd)
- How the Circuit Works
CAUTION: You could iniure your arms, hands, or
fingers if you unintentionally switch the driver's
window to "automatic down" while working in
that door with the power on. Disconnect the
window switch conneclot or the battery when
working in the driver's door.
System Description
The operation of the power windows is controlled by
the main switch in the power window master switch.
When the main switch is in OFF, only the driver's door
window can be opened or closed. With the main
switch ON, all windows can be ooened or closed
either by swtches in the master panel, or swttches in
the doors. The driver's window switch also has an
automatic down mode which is tumed on by pushing
the switch down to its second oosition.
The power windows are driven by reversible motors.
Each motor is protect€d by a built-in circuit breaker.
lf the window switch is held on too long (with the
window obstructed, or after the window is fully up or
down), the circuit breaker opens the circuit. The
circuit breaker resets automaticallv as it cools.
Driver's Window
With the ignition switch in ON, voltage is provided to
the coil of the power window relay through fus€ 24.
The contacts of the power window relay close, and
voltage is applied to the driver's switch. When you
push the power window master switch to UP, voltage
is applied to the driver's window motor. (The motor's
ground path is back through the master power
window switch.) The driver's window motor then
drives the window up. When you push the switch to
DOWN, voltage is applied in the opposite direction
and the motor drives the window down.
Automatic Down (Driver's Window)
With the ignition switch in ON or START, voltage is
applied to the coil of the power window relay. The
contacts of the power window relay close and
voltage is applied lo the power window master
switch. When you push the driveas switch to the
AUTO DOWN position, voltage is applied through
the driver's switch to the driver's window motor. The
control unit receives pulses at the pulser input while
the motor is running. When the window is fully
down, the motor stops, and pulses are no longer
generated by the pulser. This is sensed by the
control unit at the pulser input, and voltage is no
longer applied to the driver's window motor.
Passenger Windows
With the ignition switch in ON, voltage is applied to
the coil of the power window relay through fuse 24.
The contacts of the power window relay then close,
applying voltage to the individual window switches
and the power window master switch. With the
master panel main switch ON, the passenger
windows can be ooerated from the individual
window switches or from tho master panel switches.
When you push the front passengsr's window
switch to UP, voltage is applied to the f ront
passenger's window motor. (The motor is grounded
through the contacts in the front passenger's
window switch and the oower window master
switch.) The window moves up as long as you hold
the switch in the UP position. lf you push the switch
to DOWN, voltage is applied in th€ opposite
direction to the front passenger's window motor, and
the window movss down as long as you hold the
switch in the DOWN Dosition. The window switches
in the other doors operate similarly.
When you push the front passenger's switch in the
master panel to UP, voltage is applied through the
front passenger's window switch contacts to the
front passengefs window motor. (The motor is
grounded through the contacts in the front
passenger's window switch and the power window
master switch.) The window moves up as long as
you hold the switch in the UP position. lf you push
the switch to DOWN, voltage is applied in the
opposite direction to lhe front passenger's window
motor, and the window moves down as long as you
hold the switch in the DOWN position. The other
passenger window switches in the master panel
operate similarly.
Refer to the Service Manual (Section 23, Electrical)
for specific tests or troubleshooting procedures.

Power Door Locks (cont'd)
- How the Circuit Works
Keyless Entry System
The keyless door locks combine the power door
locks with a remote keyJob transmitter. The keyless
receiver unit is part of the radio. The keyless
receiver unit receives direct inputs f rom the ignition
key switch, the passenger door switches, and an
indirect input trom the driver's door switch through
the integrated control unit.
Power Door Locks (With or Wlthout Keyless)
The power door lock system is made up of the
oower door lock control unit. driver's door lock
switch, and individual door lock actuators. The
power door locks are controlled by the driver's door
lock switch and the driver's door lock actuator
switch.
Transmitter (With Keyless Entry)
The transmitter sends coded radio wave signals to
the keyless receiver unit when one ot its buttons is
pressed. Each transmitter has a unique code that
must be 'laught" to the keyless receiver unit before
it can operate the door locks or any other lunction.
Up to 4 transmitters can be programmed to operate
the keyless door locks.
Door Locking (With or without Keyless Entry)
When you push the driver's door lock switch to the
lock position, ground is applied to the GBN/IVHT
wire to the oower door lock control unit. The control
unit then applies battery voltage to the WHT/RED
wire and ground to the YEURED wire. The
passenger door lock actuators then activate to lock
the corresponding door locks.
When you lock the driver's door with the key or door
lock knob, it is mechanically locked, and the driver's
door lock actuator switch applies ground to the
oower door lock control unit. The control unit then
applies battery voltage to the WHT/RED wire and
ground to the YEURED wire, activating the
passenger door lock actuators which lock the doors.
Dool Locking with Transmitter
When you press the LOCK button on the remote
transmitter, the power door lock control unit applies
battery voltage to the WHT/RED wire and ground to
the YEURED wire. The passenger door lock
actuators then activate and lock the doors. A ground
slgnal is also applied to the BLU/RED wire to lock
the driver's door. lf any door is open, you cannot lock
it using the remote transmitter.
Door Unlocking (With or Without Keyless Entry)
When you push the driver's power door lock switch
to the unlock position, ground is applied to the
GRN/ORN wire to the power door lock control unit.
The control unit then applies battery voltage to the
YEURED and BLU/RED wires and ground to the
WHT/RED wire. The door lock actuators then
activate to unlock the doors.
When you unlock the driver's door with the key or
the door lock knob, it is mechanically unlocked; the
other doors do not unlock.
Door Unlocking (With Transmltter)
When you press the UNLOCK button on lhe remote
transmitter once. the power door lock control unit
applies battery voltage to the WHT/RED wire and
ground to the BLU/RED wire to unlock the driver's
door. When you press the UNLOCK button twice,
the control unit then applies ground to the YEURED
wires to activate the passenger door locks. lf you do
not open a door within 30 seconds after unlocking
the doors with the transmitter, the doors
automatically relock.
Transmltter Programming
1 . Turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
2. Press and hold the Valet-Disarm button on the
radio (between the AM/FM button and the
CD/TAPE button) to enter the programming
