Retrieving Trouble Codes

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. Codes from CC ECU self-diagnostic system are retrieved through Data Link Connector 1 (DLC1). Turn ignition switch to ON position. Locate Black DLC1 on driver's side of engine compartment. Connect jumper wire between DLC1 terminal E1 (Brown wire) and terminal Tc (Yellow/Black wire). See Fig 1. If any trouble code is present, perform test(s) in order given. See CRUISE CONTROL ECU TROUBLE CODE DEFINITION  table.
  2. If no trouble codes are present and CRUISE indicator light begins flashing on and off every .25 seconds, system is normal. No codes are stored in memory. Perform TEST 14 : TROUBLE CODE CIRCUIT under SYSTEM TESTS. If no codes are present, CRUISE indicator light does not flash on and off, and cruise control system malfunction still exists, perform CRUISE CONTROL FUNCTION TEST  under TROUBLE SHOOTING.
