2. ON-BOARD DIAGNOSIS WITH SELECT
MONITOR
IGeneral
The on-board diagnosis function of the cruise con-
trol system uses an external select monitor.
The on-board diagnosis function operates in two
categories, which are used depending on the type
of problems;
NOTE:
Select monitor part No.:

1) Cruise cancel conditions diagnosis
(1) This category of diagnosis requires actual
vehicle driving in order to determine the cause,
(as when cruise speed is cancelled during driv-
ing although cruise cancel condition is not
entered).
(2) Cruise control module memory stores the
cancel condition (Code No.) which occurred
during driving. When there are plural cancel
conditions (Code No.), they are shown on the
select monitor.
CAUTION:
IThe cruise control memory stores not only
the cruise ªcancelº which occurred (although
ªcancelº operation is not entered by the
driver), but also the ªcancelº condition input by
the driver.
IThe content of memory is cleared when igni-
tion switch or cruise main switch is turned OFF.
2) Real-time diagnosis
The real-time diagnosis function is used to deter-
mine whether or not the input signal system is in
good order, according to signal emitted from
switches, sensors, etc.
(1) Vehicle cannot be driven at cruise speed
because problems occurs in the cruise control
system or its associated circuits.
(2) Monitor the signal conditions from switches
and sensors.
ICruise Cancel Conditions Diagnosis
1) Connect select monitor.
2) Start the engine and turn cruise control main
switch to ON.
3) Set select monitor in ªAll System Diagnosisº
mode.
NOTE:
The diagnostic code is also shown in the ªEach
System Checkº mode. This mode is called up on
the ªCruise Control Diagnosisº screen by selecting
the item ªCancel Code(s) Displayº.
4) Drive vehicle at least 40 km/h (25 MPH) with
cruise speed set.5) If cruise speed is canceled itself (without doing
any cancel operations), a diagnostic code will
appear on select monitor display.
CAUTION:
IA diagnostic code will also appear when
cruise cancel is effected by driver. Do not con-
fuse.
IHave a co-worker ride in vehicle to assist in
diagnosis during driving.
NOTE:
Diagnostic code will be cleared by turning ignition
switch or cruise control main switch to OFF.
IReal-Time Diagnosis
1) Connect select monitor.
2) Turn ignition switch and cruise control main
switch to ON.
3) Select the ªCurrent Data Display & Saveº mode
on the select monitor ªCruise Control Diagnosisº
screen.
4) Ensure that normal indication is displayed when
controls are operated as indicated below:
IDepress/release the brake pedal. (Stop light
switch and brake switch turn ON.)
ITurn ON the ªSET/COASTº switch.
ITurn ON the ªRESUME/ACCELº switch.
IDepress/release the clutch pedal. (MT)

1) Turn ignition switch to ON.
2) Turn cruise control main switch to ON.
3) Apply parking brake securely.
4) Set select monitor in ªCurrent Data Display &
Saveº mode.
5) Depress the brake pedal and check signals for
proper operation.
(1) The Stop Light Switch shown on the display
turns from ªOFFº to ªONº.
(2) The Brake Switch shown on the display
turns from ªOFFº to ªONº.
6) Release the brake pedal.
7) Remove connector of stop and brake switch.
8) Check circuit between brake switch terminal.

DIAGNOSIS:
IPoor welding of built-in relay of cruise control
