Description & Operation
Major components of the cruise control system are speed control switches, servo/actuator, vehicle speed sensor, stoplight switch, deactivator switch, clutch pedal position switch, and related wiring. This system does not require engine vacuum. An electronic servo/actuator actuates the throttle. All electronic control components are contained within the servo/actuator assembly.
The system is operational only at speeds greater than 25 MPH. The system is activated when ON/OFF switch is switched on and SET/ACCEL button is pressed and released. Vehicle will maintain set speed until new speed is set, brake pedal is pressed, clutch pedal is pressed, or ON/OFF switch is switched off. If system has been deactivated by pressing brake pedal or clutch pedal, set speed can be regained by pressing and releasing RESUME button. When brake pedal or clutch pedal is pressed, a signal from switch is sent to the servo/actuator to deactivate the system. A deactivator switch acts as a redundant brake signal.
