WARNING:
Before servicing, be sure to read the notes in
the AB section for proper handling of the driv-
er’s airbag module. General Description.>
1) Set the front wheels in straight ahead position.
2) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
3) Disconnect the ground cable from battery and
wait for at least 20 seconds before starting work.
4) Using the TORX
® BIT T30 (Tamper resistant type),
loosen the two TORX® bolts which secure driver’s air-
bag module.
5) Disconnect the airbag module connector on
back of airbag module.
6) Remove the horn switch from steering wheel as
shown.7) Disconnect the horn and cruise control com-
mand switch connector, then remove the cruise
control command switch.
B: INSTALLATION
Install in the reverse order of removal.
C: INSPECTION
Measure the cruise control command switch resis-
tance.
If NG, replace the cruise control command switch.

CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTIC)
Diagnostic Procedure with Symptom
Step Check Yes No
1 CHECK SET/COAST SWITCH CIRCUIT.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect the cruise control module har-
ness connector.
3) Measure the voltage between harness con-
nector terminal and chassis ground when SET/
COAST switch is pressed and not pressed.
Connector & terminal
(B94) No. 10 (+) — Chassis ground (
−):Is the voltage 0 V when the
SET/COAST switch is not
pressed? Is the voltage more
than 10 V when the SET/
COAST switch is pressed?Go to step 2.Go to step 4.
2 CHECK RESUME/ACCEL SWITCH CIRCUIT.
Measure the voltage between harness connec-
tor terminal and chassis ground when
RESUME/ACCEL switch is pressed and not
pressed.
Connector & terminal
(B94) No. 9 (+) — Chassis ground (
−):Is the voltage 0 V when the
RESUME/ACCEL switch is not
pressed? Is the voltage more
than 10 V when the RESUME/
ACCEL switch is pressed?Go to step 3.Go to step 4.
3 CHECK CANCEL SWITCH CIRCUIT.
Measure the voltage between harness connec-
tor terminal and chassis ground when CAN-
CEL switch is pressed and not pressed.
Connector & terminal
(B94) No. 9 (+) — Chassis ground (
−):
(B94) No. 10 (+) — Chassis ground (
−): Is the voltage 0 V when the
CANCEL switch is not
pressed? Is the voltage more
than 10 V when the CANCEL
switch is pressed?Cruise control
command switch
circuit is OK.Go to step 4.
4 CHECK POWER SUPPLY FOR COMMAND
SWITCH.
Check the horn operation.Does the horn sound? Go to step 5. Check the fuse
No. 6 (in main fuse
box).
 Check the horn
relay. COM-3, INSPEC-
TION, Horn Sys-
tem.>
 Check the har-
ness for open or
short between
cruise control
command switch
and fuse & relay
box.
5 CHECK CRUISE CONTROL COMMAND
SWITCH.
Remove and check the cruise control com-
mand switch. Command Switch.>Is the cruise control command
switch OK?Check the harness
between cruise
control command
switch and cruise
control module.Replace the cruise
control command
switch.
