Circuit Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Cadillac CTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The cruise control set/coast switch is an input to the throttle actuator control (TAC) module. The TAC module uses the cruise control set/coast switch signal circuit in order to detect when the driver has requested to set the vehicle speed or to decelerate the vehicle speed. The TAC module detects a voltage signal on the cruise control set/coast switch signal circuit when the switch is applied. The TAC module sends a serial data signal to the powertrain control module (PCM) via the universal asynchronous receiving/transmitting (UART) serial data circuit indicating the status of the set/coast switch.
