Cruise Control Module Description

CRUISE CONTROL MODULE




The cruise control system uses a cruise control module in order to obtain and hold any desired vehicle cruise speed above a minimum speed of 40 km/h (25 mph). This is done with the aid of the following 2 components:




Electronic Controller
The electronic controller monitors the following items:
^ The vehicle speed
^ The turn signal and multitunction switch
^ The cruise control release and brake switch inputs The electronic controller operates the electric stepper motor.

Stepper Motor
The stepper motor moves an internal band in response to the controller in order to maintain the desired cruise speed. The internal band is linked to the throttle lever via the cruise control cable.
