Cruise Control Module
Cruise Control Module (CCM) constantly monitors and compares set speed with actual vehicle speed from input sensors. When vehicle speed is greater than set speed, CCM activates actuator motor to close engine throttle valve, reducing vehicle speed. When vehicle speed slows to less than set speed, CCM activates actuator motor to open engine throttle valve, increasing vehicle speed.
CCM includes a self-diagnostic function. If cruise control system is disengaged by any condition other than driver operation, CCM assumes a malfunction has occurred and may set a corresponding Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC). The CCM will suspend cruise control operation when:
- Clutch pedal or brake pedal is depressed.
- Automatic transaxle is not in Overdrive.
- Engine speed is too high/low.
- Vehicle speed is too high/low.
- Undercharged or overcharged battery condition exists.
