The optional equipment intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system includes the following major components, which are described in further detail elsewhere in this service information:

• Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Module/DASM  - An ACC module is located on a bracket secured near the center of the underside of the front bumper behind the front fascia. Refer to MODULE, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC), DESCRIPTION .
• Antilock Brake System Module (ABS)  - An ABS module is located on the antilock brake Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU) in the engine compartment. Refer to MODULE, ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS), DESCRIPTION .
• Brake Lamp Switch  - The brake (also known as stop) lamp switch is located on the brake pedal support bracket under the driver side of the instrument panel. Refer to SWITCH, STOP LAMP, DESCRIPTION .
• Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC)  - A CRUISE indicator is located in the fixed segment display of the IPC that provides an indication to the vehicle operator when the speed control system is turned ON. Refer to DESCRIPTION .
• Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)  - The EVIC is located in the IPC and provides an interface to the vehicle operator for setting the ACC customer preferences as well as a display of the adaptive speed control and Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system status messages. Refer to CENTER, ELECTRONIC VEHICLE INFORMATION, DESCRIPTION .
• Forward Facing Camera (FFC/HALF)  - The FFC/HALF is located inside the Combined Rear View Mirror Module (CRVMM) housing assembly. The FFC provides input for data fusion purposes allowing the ACC module data to be redundancy checked. Refer to MODULE, FORWARD FACING CAMERA HALF, DESCRIPTION .
• Powertrain Control Module  - The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) located in the right front corner of the engine compartment contains the software and hardware that monitors all of the speed control system inputs and controls all of the speed control system outputs. Refer to MODULE, POWERTRAIN CONTROL (PCM), DESCRIPTION .
• Speed Control Switches/CSWC  - A speed control switch pod containing eight momentary switch push buttons (five standard cruise push buttons and three ACC push buttons) is located in the right horizontal spoke of the steering wheel. Refer to SWITCH, SPEED CONTROL, DESCRIPTION .
• Steering Column Control Module (SCCM)/SWSM  - The SCCM is located at the top of the steering column just below the steering wheel.
• Wheel Speed Sensors  - A wheel speed sensor is located on the knuckle of each front and rear wheel.
