ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - TD5
18-1-36 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Cruise control set/accelerate (SET+) switch
The cruise control SET+ switch is located on the vehicle steering wheel. The switch is a momentary switch and when
pressed by the driver reacts as follows:
lRequests the cruise control to become active and set at the current road speed if not already set.
lIf the cruise control is already set, pressing the switch increases the road speed at 1 mph (1.6 km/h) intervals.
The cruise control SET+ switch will only become active and operate under the following conditions:
lThe vehicle speed must be above 22 mph (35 km/h).
lThe cruise control master switch must be 'on'.
lThe brake pedal must not be pressed.
lThe automatic transmission must be in 'drive'.
lThe clutch pedal must not be pressed.
lThe suspend switch has not been operated.
Input/Output
Input to the cruise control SET+ switch is 12 volts via the main relay. When the switch is pressed the circuit is
completed by the ECM providing an earth path for the relay via pin 11 of connector C0658 of the ECM.
The cruise control SET+ switch can fail as follows:
lOpen circuit.
lShort circuit to voltage supply.
lShort circuit to vehicle earth.
lWiring loom fault In the event of a cruise control SET+ switch failure cruise control does not operate.
Cruise control resume/suspend (RES) switch
The cruise control RES switch is located on the vehicle steering wheel. The switch is a momentary switch and when
pressed by the driver reacts as follows:
lRequests the cruise control to be suspended if it has already been set.
lRequests that cruise control is resumed at the previously set road speed.
The cruise control RES switch will only become active and operate under the following conditions:
lThe vehicle speed must be above 22 mph (35 km/h).
lThe cruise control master switch must be 'on'.
lThe brake pedal must not be pressed.
lThe automatic transmission must be in 'drive'.
lThe clutch pedal must not be pressed.

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-57
Description - cruise control
General
All markets have a common cruise control system. The cruise control system, when activated, regulates vehicle
speed. The system consists of an electrical sub-system and a mechanical sub-system.
The electrical sub-system consists of the following components:
lCruise control master switch (on/off switch).
lSET+ switch.
lRES switch.
lCruise control ECU.
lVacuum pump assembly.
lBrake pedal switch.
lClutch pedal switch (manual gearbox only).
lSLABS ECU (speed signal).
lBCU (brake pedal switch and automatic gearbox gear selector lever position signal).
The mechanical sub-system consists of the following components:
lPneumatic actuator.
lVacuum pump.
The cruise control ECU controls the cruise control system. It is located on the right hand A post.
The system has diagnostic capabilities through TestBook.
WARNING: To avoid the risk of losing control of the vehicle, do not use cruise control on winding, snow
covered or slippery roads, or in traffic conditions where a constant speed cannot be safely maintained. In
these conditions and at any time the system is not being used, ensure the cruise control switch is OFF.
Cruise control master switch
The cruise control master switch switches the system on and off. When the cruise control master switch is on, an
LED within the switch illuminates. If the cruise control master switch is off, cruise control will not operate. The switch
provides a 12 Volt feed to the cruise control ECU.
The cruise control master switch is located on the instrument panel near the steering column.

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8
18-2-60 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
SET+/RES switches
The cruise control system uses two steering wheel switches labelled SET+ and RES.
The SET+ switch performs the set speed, tap up and accelerator functions. The RES switch performs the resume and
suspend functions.
With the cruise control master switch on and the vehicle in the cruise control operating speed range, one press of the
SET+ switch stores a speed value in the cruise control ECU. If the switch is pressed and held while the vehicle is
under cruise control operation, speed increases until the switch is released. At this point the cruise control ECU stores
the new speed value. If the switch is tapped (held down for less than 0.5 second) the cruise control ECU increases
vehicle speed by 1 mph (1.5 km/h).
If the RES switch is pressed while the systems is inactive (no stored values) the system will not respond. If there is
a stored value in the cruise control ECU memory and the switch is pressed, the cruise control system operates and
holds the vehicle at the stored road speed. If the cruise control system is active and the RES switch is depressed,
the cruise control ECU deactivates cruise operation but maintains the current set speed value.
Input/Output
The input from the SET+ switch to the cruise control ECU is either 12 Volts or an open circuit.
The input from the RES switch to the cruise control ECU is either 12 Volts or an open circuit.
The following diagnostic information is available through TestBook:
lThe state of operator switch SET+.
lThe state of operator switch RES.
