Section 141 (Cruise Control System - Diagnosis): Pre-Check
- DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
- Description
ECM controls of the cruise control the function on a vehicle.
Data stored in the cruise control memory and on the DTC can be read from the DLC3 on the vehicle. If CRUISE MAIN indicator light does not come on after the DTC check, there is a malfunction of the cruise control.
Use the hand-held tester or SST to check and solve the problem.
- Check the DLC3.
The vehicle's ECM uses ISO 9141-2 for communication. The terminal arrangement of DLC3 complies with SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 9141-2 format.
SPECIFIED CONDITIONTerminal No. Connection/Specified Condition Condition 4 Chassis Ground <--> Body Ground / 1 <--> or less Always 7 Bus *** Line / Pulse Generation During Communication 16 Battery Positive <--> Body Ground / 9 -14 V Always HINT:
If the display shows "UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE" after connecting the hand-held tester to the DLC3 and turning the ignition ON, there is a problem either with the vehicle or with the tool.
- If communication is normal when connecting the tool to another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 on the original vehicle.
- If communication is still not possible when connecting the tool to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the tool itself. Consult the Service Department listed in the tool's instruction manual.
- Check the indicator.
- Turn the ignition switch ON.
- Check that the CRUISE MAIN indicator light comes on when the main switch button is turned ON, and that the indicator light goes off when the main switch is turned OFF.
HINT:
If there is a problem with the indicator, inspect the cruise main indicator lamp circuit, see CRUISE MAIN INDICATOR LIGHT CIRCUIT .
- Check the DTC.
HINT:
If a malfunction occurs in the vehicle speed sensors or stop lamp switch assembly, etc. during cruise control driving, the ECM actuates AUTO CANCEL of the cruise control and then the CRUISE MAIN indicator light will start to blink, informing the driver of a malfunction. At the same time, data of the malfunction is stored as a diagnostic trouble code, or DTC.
- Output of DTC using diagnosis check wire.
- Using SST, connect terminals TC and CG of DLC3.
SST 09843-18040
- Turn the ignition switch ON.
- Read the DTC on the CRUISE MAIN indicator light.
HINT:
If the DTC is not output, inspect the CRUISE MAIN INDICATOR LIGHT CIRCUIT and DIAGNOSIS CIRCUIT .
As an example, the normal blinking pattern and the blinking pattern for code 52 are shown in the illustration.
- Using SST, connect terminals TC and CG of DLC3.
- Description
- USING HAND-HELD TESTER
- Connect the hand-held tester to DLC3.
- Monitor the ECU data by following the prompts on the tester screen.
HINT:
Hand-held tester has a "Snapshot" function which records the monitored data. Refer to the hand-held tester operator's manual for further details.
- DATA LIST
HINT:
From the DATA LIST displayed on the hand-held tester, you can read the value of the switch, the sensor and so on without removing parts. Reading the DATA LIST as the first step to troubleshooting is one way to shorten labor time.
- Connect the hand-held tester to DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch ON.
- According to the display on the tester, read the "DATA LIST".

- DTC CLEAR
- The following methods will erase the DTCs and freeze frame data.
- The hand-held tester can be used to erase the codes.
- Disconnecting the battery terminals or EFI No.1 fuse can also erase the codes.
- After completing repairs, the DTC retained in the memory can be cleared by removing the EFI No.1 fuse for 1 minute or more with the ignition switch OFF.
- Check that the normal code is displayed after connecting the fuse.
- The following methods will erase the DTCs and freeze frame data.
- PROBLEM SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION (ROAD TEST)
