6E-314 ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM (4JK1/4JJ1)
Cruise Control System Check
Description
The cruise control system consists of the ECM, the
cruise main switch, set/ coast switch, resume/ accel.
switch and cancel switch. The cruise control keeps the
vehicle speed at a driver's set speed. When the cruise
main switch is turned ON, signal is provided to the
ECM and the cruise main indicator lamp on the switch
will light up. When the cruise set/ coast switch is turned
ON, the switch signal is provided to the ECM and the
vehicle speed is set. The vehicle speed is increased or
decreased if the set/ coast switch or the resume/ accel.
switch is turned ON. When the cruise cancel switch is
applied, the switch signal is provided to the ECM and
the cruise control system is inactive.
Condition for Running the Cruise Control • The vehicle speed is between approximately 40 km/h (24 MPH) to 175 km/h (105 MPH).
• The engine speed is less than 4500 PRM.
• The cruise main switch is ON.
1. Function of "SET"
If the set/ coast switch is pressed and released while
condition for running the cruise control are satisfied, the
ECM memorize and maintain the vehicle speed at that
time.
2. Function of "COAST"
If the set/ coast switch is pressed while the cruise
control system is operating, the vehicle speed is
decreased. Then, when the set/ coast switch is
released, the vehicle will maintain the vehicle speed at
that time.
3. Function of "RESUME"
If the resume/ accel. switch is applied while the cruise
control system is operating and the ECM memorizes
the vehicle speed, the vehicle speed is returned to the
vehicle speed memorized by the ECM.
4. Function of "ACCEL"
If the resume/ accel. switch is applied while the cruise
control system is operating, the vehicle speed is
increased. Then, when the resume/ accel. switch is
released, the vehicle will maintain the vehicle speed at
that time.
5. Function of "TAP UP"
If the resume/ accel. switch is tapped (momentarily
applied) while the cruise control system is operating,
the vehicle speed is increased 1 km/h (0.6 MPH) at a
time. 6. Function of "TAP DOWN"
If the set/ coast switch is tapped while the cruise control
system is operating, the vehicle speed is decreased 1
km/h (0.6 MPH).
7. Function of Temporary Acceleration
If the accelerator pedal is pressed while the cruise
control system is operating, the vehicle speed is
increased.
8. Function of Temporary Cancellation
The cruise control is canceled temporarily if any of the
following condition is met:
• The cruise cancel switch is applied.
• The brake pedal is depressed.
• The clutch pedal is depressed (M/T).
• The selector lever position is not D, 3, 2 or L (A/T).
• The cruise set/ coast switch and resume/ accel. switch are ON at the same time.
• The actual vehicle speed becomes less than approximately 35 km/h (22 MPH).
• The actual vehicle speed is more than 40 km/h (24 MPH) over the set speed, or more than 10 km/h (6
MPH) over the set speed for longer than 3
minutes.
• The actual vehicle speed is more than 70 km/h (42 MPH) below the set speed, or more than 10 km/h
(6 MPH) below the set speed for 3 minutes.
By applying the resume/ accel. switch, the vehicle
speed is returned to the vehicle speed memorized by
the ECM (resume function) if within the condition for
running the cruise control are satisfied.
9. Function of Complete Cancellation
The cruise control is canceled completely if any of the
following condition is met:
• The cruise main switch is OFF.
• The ignition switch is OFF.
• The vehicle is once stopped.
• The DTCs relating to the cruise control system inhibits are set.

ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM (4JK1/4JJ1) 6E-323
Symptoms - Engine Controls
Symptoms - Engine Controls
Important Preliminary Inspections Before Starting
Perform Diagnostic System Check - Engine Controls
before using the symptom tables, and verify that all of
the following are true:
• The ECM and malfunction indicator lamp (MIL)/ service vehicle soon (SVS) lamp are operating
correctly.
• The scan tool data is within the normal operating range. Refer to Scan Tool Data List in this section.
• Verify the customer concern and locate the correct symptom in the table of contents. Inspect the items
indicated under that symptom.
Visual and Physical Inspection
Several of the symptom procedures ask for careful
visual and physical inspection. This step is extremely
important. The visual and physical inspection can lead
to correcting a problem without further inspections, and
can save valuable time. Ensure that:
• The ECM grounds are clean, tight, and in their proper location.
• The vacuum hoses are not split or kinked, and properly connected. Inspect thoroughly for any
type of leak or restriction.
• The air intake ducts are not collapsed or damaged.
• The exhaust pipes are not collapsed or damaged.
• The engine harness wiring and terminals are properly connected and are not pinched or cut.
Intermittent
Important: Inspect for improper installation of electrical
components if an intermittent condition exists. Inspect
for aftermarket add-on electrical equipment devices,
lights, and cellular phones. Verify that no aftermarket
equipment is connected to the controller area network
(CAN) or other serial data circuit.
Important: The problem may or may not turn ON the
MIL/ SVS lamp or store a DTC. Faulty electrical
connections or wiring cause most intermittent
problems. Perform a careful visual and physical
inspection of the suspect connectors for the following
conditions:
• Improperly mated connector halves
• Terminals that are not seated
• Terminals that are damaged or improperly formed Reform or replace connector terminals in the problem
circuit in order to ensure proper contact tension.
Remove the terminal from the connector body in order
to inspect for poor terminal wire connection.
Road test the vehicle with the DMM connected to the
suspected circuit. An abnormal reading that occurs
when the malfunction occurs is a good indication that
there is a malfunction in the circuit being monitored.
Use the scan tool in order to help detect intermittent
conditions. Useful features of the Tech 2 scan tool
include the following:
• Trigger the Snapshot feature in order to capture and store engine parameters when the malfunction
occurs. Review this stored information in order to
see the specific running conditions that caused the
malfunction.
• Freeze Frame/ Failure Record can also aid in locating an intermittent condition. Review and
capture the information in the Freeze Frame/
Failure Record associated with the intermittent
DTC being diagnosed. Drive the vehicle within the
conditions that were present when the DTC
originally set.
• Use the Plot Function on the scan tool in order to plot selected data parameters. Review this stored
information to aid in locating an intermittent
problem. Refer to the scan tool Users Guide for
more information.
Use the data recording module (DRM) in order to help
detect intermittent conditions. The DRM has ability to
store engine log data when an event of DTC. Maximum
three log data can be stored in the DRM memory. If
more than maximum number of storage is set, oldest
log data is overwritten. However, if same DTC is set
within eight hours that DTC is not stored in the DRM
memory.
The manual trigger function is to store the log data by
an arbitrary operation of the driver when an event of
wrong vehicle performance that is instead of an event
of DTC. If the driver presses and releases the manual
trigger switch once, that time becomes a trigger and
one log data before and behind the trigger is stored in
the DRM memory. When there is a space in the DRM
memory, log data is stored in that space. However,
when more than maximum number of storage is set,
oldest log data is overwritten.
Refer to the DRM Users Guide for more information.
Important: If the intermittent condition exists as a start
and then stall, test for DTCs relating to the vehicle theft
deterrent system. Test for improper installation of
electrical options such as lights, cellular phones, etc..
Any of the following may cause an intermittent MIL/
SVS lamp with no stored DTC:
• The ECM grounds are loose or dirty. Refer to Engine Controls Schematics.

Temperature Sensitivity• An intermittent condition may occur when a component/ connection reaches normal
operating temperature. The condition may occur only when the component/
connection is cold, or only when the component/ connection is hot.
• Freeze Frame, Failure Records or Snapshot Data may help with this type of intermittent conditions, where applicable.
• If the intermittent is related to heat, review the data for a relationship with the following:
- High ambient temperatures.
- Underhood/ engine generated heat.
- Circuit generated heat due to a poor connection, or high electrical load.
- Higher than normal load conditions, towing, etc..
• If the intermittent is related to cold, review the data for the following: - Low ambient temperatures-In extremely low temperatures, ice may form in aconnection or component. Test for water intrusion.
- The condition only occurs on a cold start.
- The condition goes away when the vehicle warms up.
• Information from the customer may help to determine if the trouble follows a pattern that is temperature related.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
and Electrical Noise Some electrical components/ circuits are sensitive to EMI or other types of electrical
noise. Inspect the following conditions:
• A misrouted harness that is too close to high voltage/ high current devices such as injection components, motors, generator etc. These components may induce
electrical noise on a circuit that could interfere with normal circuit operation.
• Electrical system interference caused by a malfunctioning relay, or the ECM driven solenoid or switch. These conditions can cause a sharp electrical surge. Normally,
the problem will occur when the malfunctioning component is operating.
• Improper installation of non-factory or aftermarket add on accessories such as lights, 2-way radios, amplifiers, electric motors, remote starters, alarm systems, cell
phones, etc. These accessories may lead to an emission related failure while in
use, but do not fail when the accessories are not in use.
• Test for any open diodes. Some relays may contain a clamping diode.
• Test the generator for a bad rectifier bridge that may be allowing AC noise into the electrical system.
Incorrect ECM Programming • There are only a few situations where reprogramming a ECM is appropriate:
- An ECM from another vehicle is installed.
- Revised software/ calibration files have been released for this vehicle.
Important: DO NOT reprogram the ECM with the SAME software/ calibration files that
are already present in the ECM. This is not an effective repair for any type of driveability
problem.
• Verify that the ECM contains the correct software/ calibration. If incorrect programming is found, reprogram the ECM with the most current software/
calibration.
Duplicating Failure Conditions • If none of the previous tests are successful, attempt to duplicate and/ or capture the failure conditions.
• Freeze Frame/ Failure Records data, where applicable, contains the conditions that were present when the DTC set.
- Review and record Freeze Frame/ Failure Records data.
- Operate the vehicle under the same conditions that were noted in Freeze Frame/ Failure Records data, as closely as possible. The vehicle must also be
operating within the Conditions for Running the DTC. Refer to Conditions for
Running the DTC in the supporting text of the DTC being diagnosed.
• An alternate method is to drive the vehicle with the DMM connected to a suspected circuit. An abnormal reading on the DMM when the problem occurs, may help you
locate the problem.
