HINT
* If the indicator check result shows a problem, proceed to troubleshooting of the combination meter sub-assembly.
* While driving with the cruise control system controlling vehicle speed, the driving support ECU assembly will automatically cancel cruise control system control of vehicle speed when a malfunction is detected in one of the following: vehicle speed sensors, stop light switch assembly, or other related parts. When control of vehicle speed by the cruise control system is automatically canceled, the vehicle-to-vehicle cruise control indicator light illuminates in or changes to amber. In addition, a warning code may be displayed and malfunction data is stored as a DTC.
