Cruise Control Description and Operation: Notes

Cruise control is a speed control system that maintains a desired vehicle speed under normal driving conditions at speeds above 40 km/h (25 mph). Steep grades may cause variations in the selected vehicle speeds.

The following are the main components of the cruise control system:

• The accelerator pedal
• The brake pedal position (BPP) sensor
• The body control module (BCM)
• The CANCEL switch
• The instrument panel cluster (IPC)
• The ON/OFF switch
• The powertrain control module (PCM)
• The RES/+ switch
• The SET/- switch
• The throttle actuator control (TAC) module
• The TAC motor
• The vehicle speed sensor (VSS)
