Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The cruise control set/coast switch is an input to the throttle actuator control (TAC) module. The TAC module uses the cruise control set/coast switch signal circuit in order to detect when the driver has requested to set the vehicle speed or to decelerate the vehicle speed. The TAC module detects a voltage signal on the cruise control set/coast switch signal circuit when the switch is applied. The TAC module sends a serial data signal to the PCM via the UART serial data circuit. This DTC sets if the PCM receives a serial data signal from the TAC module indicating that voltage is present on the cruise control set/coast switch signal circuit for longer than 90 seconds.
