STEP 8. Check the auto-cruise control switch.
(1) Remove the auto-cruise control switch

P.17-99

.

(2) Measure the resistance at between the terminals when

each of the "SET," "RESUME," "CANCEL" and "MAIN"
switch is pressed.

Q: Is the values measured correspond to those in the table

below?
YES : Go to Step 14 .
NO : Replace the auto-cruise control switch. (Refer to

P.17-99

). Then go to Step 15 .

STEP 9. Measure the output circuit voltage at auto-cruise
control-ECU connector C-35 by backprobing.
(1) Do not disconnect auto-cruise control-ECU connector C-35.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between auto-cruise control-ECU

connector C-35 terminal 12 and ground by backprobing.

• Voltage should be battery positive voltage. (The MAIN

switch is at the "ON" position.)

(4) Measure the voltage between auto-cruise control-ECU

connector C-35 terminal 9 and ground by backprobing.

• Voltage should measure between 6.8 and 7.2 volts.

(MAIN switch is at the "ON" position.)

• Voltage should measure between 3.5 and 5.0 volts. (All

switches are at the "OFF" position.)

• Voltage should measure between 0.4 and 2.3 volts.

("SET" switch is at the "ON" position.)

• Voltage should measure between 2.3 and 3.5 volts.

("RESUME" switch is at the "ON" position.)

• Voltage should measure 1 volt or less. ("CANCEL"

switch is at the "ON" position.)

(5) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the voltage within specifications?

YES : Go to Step 14 .
NO : Go to Step 10 .

STEP 10. Check auto-cruise control-ECU connector C-35
for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals
pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is the connector damaged?

YES : Repair or replace the damaged components. (Refer

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

). Then go to Step 15 .

NO : Go to Step 11 .

STEP 11. Check the clock spring.
Refer to GROUP 52B, Air Bag Modules and Clock Spring

P.52B-84

.

Q: Is the clock spring damaged?

YES : Replace the clock spring. (Refer to GROUP 52B, Air

Bag Modules and Clock Spring

P.52B-84

). Then go to

Step 15 .

NO : Go to Step 12 .

STEP 12. Check auto-cruise control switch connector
D-19, clock spring connector D-25 for loose, corroded or
damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
connector.
Q: Is any connector damaged?

YES : Repair or replace the damaged components. (Refer

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

). Then go to Step 15 .

NO : Go to Step 13 .

STEP 13. Check the harness wire between auto-cruise
control switch connector D-19 (terminal No.2 and 3) and
auto-cruise control-ECU connector C-35 (terminal No.9
and 12).
Q: Is any harness wire between auto-cruise control switch

connector D-19 (terminal No.2 and 3) and auto-cruise
control-ECU connector C-35 (terminal No.9 and 12)
damaged?
YES : Repair the damaged harness wire. Then go to Step

15 .

NO : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

STEP 14. Check the diagnostic trouble codes.
Q: Is DTC 15 set?

YES : Replace the auto-cruise control-ECU. (Refer to

P.17-99

). Then go to Step 15 .

NO : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

(Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

− How to

STEP 15. Check the diagnostic trouble codes.
Q: Is DTC 15 set?

YES : Return to Step 1 .
NO : This procedure is complete.

DTC 16: Auto-cruise Control-ECU

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS
This code is output when a problem is found on the
cancel status hold circuit or microcomputer operation
monitor circuit, which is incorporated in the
auto-cruise control-ECU.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
