Description & Operation: Notes

WARNING: To avoid injury from accidental air bag deployment, read and carefully follow all SERVICE PRECAUTIONS and DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM procedures in appropriate AIR BAG article in the ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT Section.

Cruise control system operates a mechanical linkage to throttle by means of vacuum motor. A solenoid-driven valve connects vacuum motor to vacuum tank. A vent solenoid vents vacuum when brake and/or clutch pedal (M/T) is depressed, or when cruise switch is turned to OFF position. Cruise control module controls vacuum motor and throttle by pulsing solenoid valves on and off.

Cruise control module monitors vehicle speed, disengage, cruise ON, SET and RESUME/ACCELERATE (R/A) inputs to control vent and vacuum control solenoids. When Acceleration Slip Regulation (ASR) is active, cruise control is switched off.
