Command Switch (Cruise Control Lever)

COMMAND SWITCH (CRUISE CONTROL LEVER)




- When the vehicle is driven with the cruise control activated, the command switch controls its operation. It inputs MAIN signal, SET/COAST signal, RESUME/ ACCEL signal or CANCEL signal to the engine control module (ECM).
- When the cruise control MAIN switch is turned ON, the cruise indicator light in the combination meter illuminates. Also, when the cruise control is set, the cruise set indicator light in the combination meter illuminates.
- The command switch is located on the right side of the steering wheel, so the driver can operate it without releasing hands from the steering wheel.
- The command switch is a self-returning lever type.

MAIN SWITCH
When the switch is pushed once the cruise control system turns ON and becomes ready to set the cruise control. When the switch is pushed again the cruise control turns OFF.

CANCEL, RESUME/ACCEL AND SET/COAST SWITCH
Each switch contact is held closed as long as the lever is kept pressed in the relevant direction (except the CANCEL switch which should be pulled), and resulting current is applied as a signal to the engine control module (ECM).
