General Information

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).

The following 2 components within the module help achieve this function:
^ An electronic controller that performs the following functions:
- Monitors the vehicle speed.
- Monitors the turn signal and the multifunction switch inputs.
- Monitors the cruise control release and the brake switch inputs.
- Operates the electric stepper motor.
^ A stepper motor which moves an internal band (linked to the throttle lever via the cruise control cable) in response to the controller in order to maintain the desired cruise speed.
