The body control module (BCM) supplies battery voltage to the cruise control switch. The cruise control switch signal is an input to the BCM. The BCM monitors the cruise control switch signal circuit in order to detect when the driver has requested to perform a cruise control function. The BCM detects a specific voltage signal on the cruise control switch signal circuit when a switch is applied.
