Test A: The Speed Control Is Inoperative

PINPOINT TEST A: THE SPEED CONTROL IS INOPERATIVE


A1-A4:






A4-A7:






A8:






Normal Operation
The PCM sends a signal through circuit VES10 (WH) to the speed control switch, which passes through the clockspring. The return signal is sent to the PCM through circuit RES08 (GN/BN) and the clockspring. When the brake pedal is applied, the SJB sends a message to the PCM to deactivate the speed control, if engaged.

The speed control deactivator switch interrupts circuit CES09 (VT/OG) removing the voltage signal to the PCM when the brake pedal is applied. This is a redundant signal to the PCM.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Stoplamp switch
- Speed control switch
- Digital transmission range (TR) sensor
- Vehicle speed signal
- PCM
