Cruise Control System

The cruise control system on gasoline engines consists of the following components:
^ The Vehicle Control Module (VCM)
^ The cruise control module
^ The multifunction lever
^ The brake release switch

The cruise control module contains a stepper motor that is used to change throttle position. The cruise control module receives commands from the multifunction lever. The cruise control module receives vehicle speed from the VCM. The cruise control module controls speed based on these input commands and the vehicle speed.
