Cruise Control Unit Input Test

NOTE: SRS components are located in this area. Review the SRS component locations, (see appropriate AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEM article under RESTRAINS), and the precautions and procedures in the SRS before performing repairs or service.

Remove the driver's dashboard lower cover (see DASHBOARD ).
Disconnect the 14P connector from the cruise control unit.
Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
- If the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
- If the terminals look OK, go to step 4.

If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system. If all the input tests prove OK, the cruise control unit may be faulty. Substitute a known-good cruise control unit and retest. If the system works properly, replace the cruise control unit.
