Using Cruise Indicator Light

NOTE: If RESUME/ACCEL switch is malfunctioning, cruise indicator light will not provide a correct indication when cruise system is inspected. Use NGS tester in condition detection mode.
  1. Turn ignition switch to ON position. Turn cruise control main switch on. Ensure cruise indicator light illuminates. If cruise indicator light does not illuminate, service before continuing.
  2. Press and hold RESUME/ACCEL switch for at least 3 seconds. Cruise indicator light will illuminate for 3 seconds, and then go out for 2 seconds. Cruise indicator light will flash condition detection mode codes. On 2-digit codes (output patterns), a short pause separates each digit of applicable code (example of code 15: long flash, short pause, 5 short flashes). If no DTCs are set, light will not flash. If no DTCs exist go to step  9. If any DTCs exist, go to next step.
  3. If DTC 01 does not exist, go to next step. If DTC 01 exists, check actuator circuit. See DTC 01: ACTUATOR CIRCUIT  under CIRCUIT TESTS.
  4. If DTC 05 does not exist, go to next step. If DTC 05 exists, check brake switch circuit. See DTC 05: BRAKE SWITCH  under CIRCUIT TESTS.
  5. If DTC 07 does not exist, go to next step. If DTC 07 exists, check brake switch circuit. See DTC 07: BRAKE SWITCH  under CIRCUIT TESTS.
  6. If DTC 11 does not exist, go to next step. If DTC 11 exists, check cruise control switch circuit. DTC 11: CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH (SET/COAST SWITCH)  under CIRCUIT TESTS.
  7. If DTC 12 does not exist go to next step. If DTC 12 exists, check cruise control switch circuit. See DTC 12: CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH (RESUME/ACCEL SWITCH)  under CIRCUIT TEST.
  8. If DTC 15 exists, replace cruise control module. If DTC 15 does not exist, no cruise control module DTCs exist at this time. Go to next step.
  9. To cancel condition detection mode, drive vehicle at a speed greater than 10 MPH or turn cruise control main switch off. Ensure cruise indicator light goes out.
