SPEED CONTROL SERVO (Continued)

²If the actual speed is not within 20 mph of the
set speedThe previous disengagement conditions are
programmed for added safety.
Once the speed control has been disengaged,
depressing the ACCEL switch restores the vehicle to
the target speed that was stored in the ECM's RAM.
NOTE: Depressing the OFF switch will erase the set
speed stored in the ECM's RAM.
If, while the speed control is engaged, the driver
wishes to increase vehicle speed, the ECM is pro-
grammed for an acceleration feature. With the
ACCEL switch held closed, the vehicle accelerates
slowly to the desired speed. The new target speed is
stored in the ECM's RAM when the ACCEL switch is
released. The ECM also has a9tap-up9feature in
which vehicle speed increases at a rate of approxi-
mately 2 mph for each momentary switch activation
of the ACCEL switch.
The ECM also provides a means to decelerate with-
out disengaging speed control. To decelerate from an
existing recorded target speed, depress and hold the
COAST switch until the desired speed is reached.
Then release the switch. The ON, OFF switch oper-
ates two components: the ECM's ON, OFF input, and
the battery voltage to the brake switch, which powers
the speed control servo.
REMOVAL
WARNING: BEFORE BEGINNING ANY AIRBAG SYS-
TEM COMPONENT REMOVAL OR INSTALLATION,
REMOVE AND ISOLATE THE NEGATIVE (-)
CABLE(S) FROM THE BATTERY. THIS IS THE ONLY
SURE WAY TO DISABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM.
THEN WAIT TWO MINUTES FOR SYSTEM CAPACI-
TOR TO DISCHARGE BEFORE FURTHER SYSTEM
SERVICE. FAILURE TO DO THIS COULD RESULT IN
ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSI-
BLE INJURY.
(1) Disconnect and isolate negative battery
cable(s).
(2) Remove airbag module. Refer to 8, Restraint
Systems for procedures.
(3) Remove switch-to-steering wheel mounting
screws (Fig. 20).
(4) Remove switch.
(5) Remove electrical connector at switch.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install electrical connector to switch.
(2) Install switch and mounting screws.
(3) Tighten screws to 3 N´m (26 in. lbs. +/± 2 in.
lbs.) torque.(4) Install airbag module. Refer to 8, Restraint
Systems for procedures.
(5) Connect negative battery cable(s).
VACUUM RESERVOIR
DESCRIPTION
Gasoline Powered Engines :A vacuum reservoir
is used to supply the vacuum needed to maintain
proper speed control operation when engine vacuum
drops, such as in climbing a grade while driving. A
one-way check valve is used in the vacuum line
between the reservoir and the vacuum source. This
check valve is used to trap engine vacuum in the res-
ervoir. On certain vehicle applications, this reservoir
is shared with the heating/air-conditioning system.
The vacuum reservoir cannot be repaired and must
be replaced if faulty.
Diesel Powered Engines With Auto. Trans. :A
vacuum reservoir is not used if equipped with a die-
sel powered engine. Instead, an engine driven pump
(vacuum pump) is used to supply vacuum for speed
control operation. This vacuum pump is used with
the diesel engine only if it is equipped with an auto-
matic transmission. Refer to Vacuum Pump in 9,
Engines for information.
REMOVAL
The vacuum reservoir is located under the plastic
cowel plenum cover at lower base of windshield. The
vacuum reservoir is not used if equipped with a die-
sel engine.

(4) Release cowel grill plastic anchor screws (Fig.
22).
(5) Lift cowel plenum cover/grille panel from vehi-
cle far enough to access vacuum reservoir.
(6) Disconnect vacuum supply line from vacuum
reservoir (Fig. 23).
(7) Remove 2 vacuum reservoir mounting screws.
(8) Remove vacuum reservoir from vehicle.
INSTALLATION
The vacuum reservoir is located under the plastic
cowel plenum cover at lower base of windshield. The
vacuum reservoir is not used if equipped with a die-
sel engine.
(1) Install vacuum reservoir and two mounting
screws. Tighten screws to 2.2 N´m (20 in. lbs.) torque.
(2) Connect vacuum supply hose to vacuum reser-
voir.
(3) Position cowel plenum cover/grille panel to
vehicle.
(4) Install and tighten cowel cover fasteners to
vehicle body.
(5) Install rubber weather-strip at front edge of
cowel grill.
(6) Install windshield wiper arms. Refer to 8,
Wiper and Washer Systems.
(7) Connect negative battery to cable.
