3. Clutch Pedal Is Depressed, Auto-Cruise Control Not Cancelled

When the clutch pedal is depressed, auto-cruise control is not cancelled.

Clutch Pedal Position Switch Circuit:









CIRCUIT OPERATION
This circuit indicates the operation status of the clutch pedal position switch. When the clutch pedal position switch is ON (clutch pedal is depressed), the voltage of auto-cruise control-ECU terminal number 13 will indicate 0 volt.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
The cause is probably a malfunction of the clutch pedal position switch circuit.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
- Malfunction of the clutch pedal position switch.
- Damaged harness or connector.
- Malfunction of the auto-cruise control-ECU.

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Check the clutch pedal position switch.
1. Disconnect clutch pedal position switch connector C-01.




2. Measure the continuity between the terminals.

Q: Is the continuity meet the table above?

YES:
Go to Step 2.
NO: Replace the clutch pedal position switch.
Refer to Transmission.
Then check that the malfunction is eliminated.

STEP 2. Check the output circuit voltage at auto-cruise control-ECU connector C-21 by backprobing.
1. Do not disconnect auto-cruise control switch connector C-21.
2. Turn the ignition switch to "ON" position.




3. Measure the voltage between terminal 13 and ground by backprobing.
- Voltage should be 0.5 volts or less. (When clutch pedal is depressed.)
- Voltage should be battery positive voltage. (When clutch pedal is not depressed.)

Q: Is the voltage within specifications?

YES:
Check that the malfunction is eliminated.
If the malfunction is eliminated, replace the auto-cruise control-ECU.
Then check that the malfunction is eliminated.
NO: Go to Step 3.










STEP 3. Check clutch pedal position switch connector C-01 and auto-cruise control-ECU connector C-21 and Intermediate connector C-209.

Q: Is any connector damaged?

YES:
Repair or replace connector.
Refer to Harness Connector Inspection.
Then check that the malfunction is eliminated.
NO: Go to Step 4.







STEP 4. Check the harness wire between clutch pedal position switch connector C-01 and auto-cruise control-ECU connector C-21.

Q: Is any harness wire between clutch pedal position switch connector C-01 and auto-cruise control-ECU connector C-21 damaged?

YES:
Repair the harness wire and then check that the malfunction is eliminated.
NO: Go to Step 5.




STEP 5. Check the harness wire between clutch pedal position switch connector C-01 and ground wire.

Q: Is any harness wire between clutch pedal position switch connector C-01 and ground wire damaged?

YES:
Repair the harness wire and then check that the malfunction is eliminated.
NO: Check that the malfunction is eliminated.
If the malfunction is eliminated, replace the auto-cruise control-ECU.
Then check that the malfunction is eliminated.
