Cruise Control Module

The cruise control module on gasoline engines maintains a desired vehicle speed under normal driving conditions. The typical cruise control system operates in the following way:
^ The cruise ON/OFF switch must be in the ON position.
^ When the SET button is activated, the cruise control module stores the last vehicle speed input from the VCM into memory.
^ The stepper motor, pan of the cruise control module, increases or decreases throttle position depending on the load (going up or down a hill) in order to maintain vehicle speed.
^ When the cruise ON/OFF switch is moved to the OFF position, or if the brake is applied, the cruise control module turns off the cruise control system.
