Cruise Control Switch Circuit: Description

The cruise control switch is used to turn the cruise control system on and off, as well as operate 7 functions: SET, - (COAST), TAP-DOWN, RES (RESUME), + (ACCEL), TAP-UP and CANCEL. The SET, TAP-DOWN and - (COAST) functions, and the RES (RESUME), TAP-UP and + (ACCEL) functions are operated with the same switch. The cruise control switch is an automatic return type switch which turns on only while operating it in the direction of each arrow and turns off after releasing it. The internal contact points of the cruise control switch turn on with switch operation. Then the power management control ECU reads the voltage value that has been changed by the switch operation to control SET, - (COAST), RES (RESUME), + (ACCEL), and CANCEL.
