Diagnostic Aids
Important: Perform the following in order to avoid misdiagnosis.
| • | Inspect for proper operation of brake lamps. |
| • | Inspect throttle linkage for mechanical binding which could cause the system to malfunction. |
| • | Inspect for stored Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) in the PCM. |
| • | EMI on the speed sensor signal circuit may cause erratic cruise control operation. |
Conditions for Enabling Cruise Control
| • | When vehicle speed is more than 40 km/h (25 mph) |
| • | When PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, or 1st gear is not indicated by the Park/ Neutral Position Switch. |
| • | When an over/undercharged battery condition does not exist. |
| • | With normal engine RPM. |
