Retrieving Trouble Codes

  1. Codes from CC ECU self-diagnostic system are retrieved through self-test diagnostic Data Link Connector 1 (DLC1). Test drive vehicle to allow trouble codes to set in CC ECU memory. If CRUISE indicator light begins to flash while driving or cruise control will not set or operate, check for trouble codes. Go to next step.
  2. Stop vehicle and leave ignition switch in ON position. Locate Black DLC1 on driver side strut tower in engine compartment. Connect jumper wire between DLC1 terminal No. 3/E1 (Brown wire) and terminal No. 11/Tc (Violet wire). See Fig 1.
  3. If any trouble code is present, perform test(s) in order given. See CRUISE CONTROL ECU TROUBLE CODE DEFINITION  table. If no trouble codes are present and CRUISE indicator light begins flashing on and off every .25 seconds, system is normal. 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.
