Transmission Range Switch Circuit Check
Fig. for Step 1Step Action Yes No
1 Transmission Range Switch Circuit Check
1) Disconnect connector from cruise control module with
ignition switch OFF.
2) Check for proper connection to cruise control module at
terminal E132-9.
3) If OK, connect ohmmeter between terminal E132-9 and
ground.
4) Check for continuity under each condition below.

Selector lever at “P” or “N” range : Continuity
“R”, “D”, “2” or “L” range : Infinity
Is check result satisfactory?Transmission range
switch circuit is OK.Go to Step 2.
2 Transmission Range Switch Check
1) Disconnect transmission range switch connector.
2) Check for proper connection to transmission range switch
at disconnected connector terminals.
3) If OK, check transmission range switch for operation refer-
ring to “TRANSMISSION RANGE SWITCH” in Section
7B1.
Is check result satisfactory?“BLK/RED” or
“BLK/YEL” circuit is
open or short.Adjust or
replace.

Cruise Control Module and Its Circuit Inspection
VOLTAGE CHECK
Check for input or output voltage of control module (voltage between each circuit and body ground) with cruise
control module connector connected.CAUTION:
Cruise control module can not be checked by itself. It is strictly prohibited to connect voltmeter or
ohmmeter to cruise control module with coupler disconnected from it.

These switches are built in the combination switch assembly.
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Refer to “COMBINATION SWITCH” in Section 3C1.
INSPECTION
1) Disable air bag system referring to “DISABLING AIR BAG
SYSTEM” in Section 10B.
2) Disconnect connector (1) of COAST/SET, RESUME/ACCEL
