Cruise Control Switch Circuit: Description

The cruise control main switch operates 8 functions: SET, -(COAST), TAP-DOWN, RES (RESUME), + (ACCEL), TAP-UP, CANCEL, and MODE. The SET, TAP-DOWN, and - (COAST) functions, and the RES (RESUME), TAP-UP, and + (ACCEL) functions are operated with the same switch. The cruise control main switch is an automatic return type switch which turns on only while operating it in the direction of each arrow and turns off after releasing it. The internal contact point of the cruise control main switch is turned on with the switch operation. The ECM then reads the voltage value that has been changed by the switch operation to control MODE, SET, - (COAST), RES (RESUME), + (ACCEL), and CANCEL. The dynamic radar cruise control system has two cruise control modes: the constant speed control mode and vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode.

• The vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is always selected when starting up the dynamic radar cruise control system.
• The operation of the constant speed control mode is the same as that for a conventional cruise control system.
