SELF-DIAGNOSIS AND INPUT-CHECK FUNCTIONS
SELF-DIAGNOSIS CHECK
Self-diagnosis checking is performed when there has been an automatic
cancellation, without cancel switch operation.
The diagnosis check connector is located under the driver’s side instrument
panel. Connect a voltmeter between the ground terminal (12) and the terminal
for auto-cruise control (5) of the diagnosis check connector.
NOTE Canceling the diagnosis codes (Unlike the 89 - 90 Cruise
control, Diagnosis codes are retained when the unit is off)
The diagnosis codes remain in memory until the battery is turned off
but they can be canceled in the following ways without disconnecting the
battery terminals.
1. By turning on the ignition switch
2. By turning the cruise switch ON while the SET switch is ON and then,
within 1 second, turning the RESUME switch ON. (Put into condition for
input check reception)
3. By turning ON set SET switch and stop light switch at the same time
and continuing the ON condition for 5 seconds or more.

Probable cause
|
11
|
Abnormal condition of auto-cruise vacuum pump
drive system (check the vacuum hose from the pump to actuator too.)
|
12
|
Abnormal condition of vehicle speed signal system
|
15*
|
Control switch malfunction (when SET and RESUME
switches switched ON simultaneously for more than 25 seconds)
|
16*
|
Cancel switch ON signal input (stop light switch,
clutch switch or inhibitor switch input wiring damage or disconnection or
occurrence of abnormality in circuit within control unit.)

17
|
Abnormal condition of throttle position sensor
Abnormal condition of idle switch

NOTE
1. Codes indicated by the * symbol are displayed, if the conditions
are satisfied, even if the system is normal. In either case, the system
is normal if it can be reset. If there is an automatic cancellation not
intentionally made by the driver, however, excluding cancellations explicitly
made by the cancel procedure, there may be a temporary malfunction such
as poor contact of a harness connector even though the system can be reset,
and for that reason it is necessary to check according to each individual
check chart that is applicable.
2. Diagnosis codes are displayed when, after cancellation of the auto-cruise
control system, the vehicle speed decreases to less than approximately 20
km/h (12 mph), and are erased are canceled by turning OFF the battery or
canceling the diagnosis codes..
3. After the diagnosis codes in the memory are erased, if (when the
power supply of the electronic control unit is switched ON once again)
the power supply of the electronic control unit is normal, continuous ON/OFF
signals will be displayed at 0.5 second intervals, regardless of whether
the system condition is normal or not.
INPUT-CHECK FUNCTION
The input-check function allows you to check if the input signal
is normal when a cruise control failure occurs, including the situation where
the cruise control cannot be set. The input checks should be made when the
auto-cruise control system cannot be set and when it is necessary to check
whether or not the input signals are normal.
(1) Connect a voltmeter to the diagnosis connector of the junction block
the same way as for the self diagnosis check..
(2) Turn the ignition switch to ON and switch OFF the CRUISE switch.
(3) With the SET switch in the ON position (Pushed in), turn the CRUISE
switch ON. Then, within 1 second, place the RESUME switch in the ON position..
(4) Perform each input operation according to the input check table and
read the codes.
(5) Switch the CRUISE switch OFF.

|
Check results
|
21
|
SET switch ON
|
SET switch circuit is normal.
|
22
|
RESUME switch ON
|
RESUME switch circuit is normal.
|
23
|
Stop light switch ON (brake pedal depressed)
|
Stop light switch circuit is normal.
|
24
|
Driving at approx. 40 km/h (25 mph) or higher
|
When both Code 24 and Code 25 can be confirmed,
vehicle speed sensor circuit is operating normal.
|
25
|
Driving at less than approx. 40 km/h (25 mph).
or stopped

26
|
M/T Clutch switch (clutch pedal depressed)
A/T Inhibitor switch ON (shift lever to “N” position)
|
Clutch switch or Inhibitor switch circuit is
normal.
|
28
|
Throttle position sensor output voltage over 1.5V
(when the accelerator pedal is pressed more than half way)
|
Throttle position sensor circuit is normal.
|
29
|
Idle switch OFF (accelerator pedal depressed)
|
Idle switch circuit is normal.

NOTE
1. Each code will be displayed in the order of code number. If there
is no display, it is possible that there is a malfunction of the ECU power
supply circuit or the SET and/or RESUME switch, so check according to check
charts 1,2 and 3.
2. Continue each input operation until the output code is emitted. If
no output codes are emitted for inputs even though the display pattern is
repeated two or more times, there is a malfunction of the switch sensor.
3. When each input operation is performed and the signals for the conditions
are received by the computer, each output code will be repeatedly displayed
in the sequence of priority for as long as that signal continues.
4. If, during the display of output codes, the input operation is canceled
(if, for example, the SET switch is set from ON to OFF), the code will
be displayed for one cycle of the display, but will not be displayed during
the next cycle. This makes it possible, therefore, to check the OFF condition
(existence of not of a short-circuit of the input line or the switch).
If the code does not disappear, the switch or harness is probably defective.
