Test E: Flash Code 3 - Speed Control Deactivator Switch Circuit Failure

PINPOINT TEST E: FLASH CODE 3 - SPEED CONTROL DEACTIVATOR SWITCH CIRCUIT FAILURE

Normal Operation
The speed control deactivator switch receives voltage through circuit CBP26 (BU/WH). When the brake pedal is not applied, voltage is sent to the speed control actuator, from the speed control deactivator switch, through circuit CES09 (VT/OG). When the brake pedal is applied firmly, the speed control deactivator switch opens, removing the voltage signal from the speed control actuator and disabling the speed control.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Fuse
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Speed control deactivator switch
- Speed control actuator
