SPEED CONTROL - SERVICE INFORMATION
DESCRIPTION
WARNING: THE USE OF SPEED CONTROL IS NOT RECOMMENDED WHEN DRIVING CONDITIONS DO NOT
PERMIT MAINTAINING A CONSTANT SPEED, SUCH AS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC OR ON ROADS THAT ARE WIND-
ING, ICY, SNOW COVERED, OR SLIPPERY.
Note: A cable and a vacuum controlled servo are not used. This is a servo-less system.
The Speed Control System is fully electronically con-
trolled by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). Con-
trol of the Speed Control System is accomplished by a
Speed Control Switch (1) which is located just above
the Multifunction Switch (2). The Speed Control Sys-
tem also uses other components of the vehicle to
accomplish its tasks. The five other major components
used are as follows; The PCM, Accelerator Pedal
Position Sensor, Kickdown Switch (Automatic Trans-
mission), Throttle Body and the Clutch Pedal Position
Switch (Manual Transmission). The Speed Control
System is designed to operate at speeds above 25
MPH (40 km/h).
OPERATION

set speed to be stored in its memory for speed control. To store a set speed, press either of the SET switch func-
tions while the vehicle is moving, at a speed above 25 MPH (40 km/h). In order for the speed control to engage, the
brakes cannot be applied, nor can the gear selector be indicating the transmission is in Park or Neutral.
The speed control can be disengaged manually by:
• Applying the brake pedal
• Pressing the speed control switch to OFF
• Depressing the clutch pedal (if equipped).
Note: Turning the Speed Control Switch OFF or turning OFF the ignition switch will erase the set speed
stored in the PCM.
