The computer which controls the cruise control system is combined with the ECM, and the actuator uses 
the throttle position sensor and motor. A microcomputer is built into the ECM to control functions 
including: ON-OFF, SET/COAST, RESUME/ACCEL, CANCEL, vehicle speed operation, motor output 
control, and overdrive control. 
The ECM compares the driving vehicle speed from the speed sensor with the stored vehicle speed 
set through the cruise control main switch assy. The ECM instructs the throttle valve motor of the 
throttle position sensor and motor to close the valve when the driving vehicle speed is greater than 
the stored vehicle speed, and instructs it to open the valve when the driving speed is less than the 
stored speed.  
The ECM receives signals such as ON-OFF, SET/COAST, RESUME/ACCEL, and CANCEL from 
the cruise control main switch assy and executes them.  
The ECM turns on the indicator in the combination meter based upon the ON signal from the cruise 
control main switch assy.  
The ECM cancels the cruise control system when it detects that the brake pedal is depressed, based 
on the stop lamp switch signal.  
The ECM cancels the cruise control system when it detects that the shift position is changed from 
D (6th, 5th or 4th gear) to N (3rd, 2nd or 1st gear), based on the park/neutral position switch assy 
signal.  
2.LIMIT CONTROL 
a. Low speed limit 
The lowest possible limit of the speed setting range is set at approximately 40 km/h (25 mph). The 
cruise control system cannot be set when the driving vehicle speed is below the low speed limit. 
Cruise control operation will be automatically canceled and the stored vehicle speed will be erased 
when the vehicle speed goes below the low speed limit while the cruise control is in operation. 
b. High speed limit 
The highest possible limit of the speed setting range is set at approximately 200 km/h (125 mph). 
The cruise control system cannot be set when the driving vehicle speed is over the high speed limit. 
Speed up using RESUME/ACCEL with the cruise control main switch assy also cannot be set 
beyond the high speed limit. 
3.OPERATION OF CRUISE CONTROL 
The cruise control main switch operates seven functions: SET, COAST, TAP-DOWN, RESUME, 
ACCEL, TAP-UP, and CANCEL. The SET, TAP-DOWN and COAST functions, and the RESUME, 
TAP-UP and ACCEL functions are operated with the same switch. The cruise control main switch assy is 
an automatic return type switch which turns on only while operating it in each arrow direction and turns 
off after releasing it. 
a. SET CONTROL 
Vehicle speed is stored and constant speed control is maintained when pushing the switch to SET/ 
COAST while drivin

2.CHECK THE DLC3 
a. The vehicle's ECM uses ISO 9141-2 for communication. The terminal arrangement of the DLC3 
complies with SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 9141-2 format.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION 
The ECM detects a cruise control switch signal and sends it to the combination meter via CAN and 
BEAN. Then the CRUISE main indicator light comes on.  
The CRUISE main indicator light circuit uses CAN and BEAN for communication. If there are any 
malfunctions in this circuit, check for DTCs in the CAN communication system and multiplex 
communication system.
