How does a drive by wire cruise control system work?

How does a drive by wire cruise control system work?

Drive-by-Wire or electronic throttle actuator has changed the way cruise control systems operate. With DBW or ETA systems, an actual motor controls the throttle opening. Shown here are some of the circuits that now handle the operation of the cruise control system. Learn about the respective current paths, circuits, data line, networks and more.

Where can I buy a Chevrolet Cruze electrical diagram?

You can purchase access to the GM Techinfo website, at ACDelco TDS, which has the diagrams available, sort of. It’s USD20 for three days, USD150 for one month, or USD1200 for a year. If you are friendly enough with a Holden dealer service mob, you might get them to print the pages from GM Global Connect, but they aren’t supposed to do that.

What was the cruise control system in 1984?

AC Spark Plug Division, General Motors Corporation has prepared this service manual to help answer questions about operation and service of the 1984 AC Custom Cruise III cruise control system. This system is offered in two versions, AC Custom Cruise III and AC Integrated Custom Cruise III.

What kind of cruise control does a 1984 AC Spark Plug have?

The 1984 AC Custom Cruise III system is an extension of the cruise control system that AC Spark Plug Division has de­ signed and produced since the 1977 vehicle model year. The Custom Cruise III system has been adapted to accommo­ date the lower manifold vacuum levels of smaller, fuel efficient vehicles.

Where does the speed signal come from on a custom cruise III?

The speed signal is derived from the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) speedometer buffer amplifier or a permanent magnet (PM) generator. Integrated Custom Cruise III has the electronic circuitry incorporated in the instrument cluster.

How to draw head lamps on a Mazda?

MAZDA HEAD LAMPSWORKSHEET #1 1. Draw in GREEN the HEAD LAMP CONTROL circuit from the battery to ground. 2. Draw in RED the LOW BEAM circuit from the battery to ground. 3. Draw in BLUE the HIGH BEAM circuit from the battery to ground. L-1 Page 3 MAZDA HEAD LAMPS WORKSHEET#2 1. Draw in GREEN the HEAD LAMP CONTROL circuit from the battery to ground.

How to tell if a Mazda headlamp is at fault?

Trace in RED the portion of the circuit below that you suspect could be at fault. The LEFT HIGH BEAM HEADLAMP does not work in the High Beam Position. Both lamps function normally in the low beam position. The tail lamps function correctly. 3. Trace in BLUE the portion of the circuit below that you suspect could be at fault.

Where are the DIP switches on the micro cruise module?

On the back of the Micro Cruise module/servo, are the 10 dip switches that must be set accordingly depending on the number of cylinders, type of transmission, number of pulses per mile generated at the transmission on the VSS wire, type of control switch, sensitivity, etc.

Do you need a clutch switch for a cruise control?

On vehicles with a manual transmission, you will have to add a clutch switch. This mounts to the arm of the pedal and is wired in series with the wire attached to the cold side of the brake. Although it is not necessary for this switch to be installed for the cruise to work, it is highly recommended.

How does the cruise control monitor the speed?

This wire provides the signal the cruise control will monitor to maintain a constant speed. But for those that do not have a VSS wire, including older vehicles, a signal generator or a pick up coil and magnets can be added to monitor the vehicle’s speed.

What is the ultracruise cruise control installation manual?

FORM # 2784 Rev. A 07/95 THIS MANUAL, YOUR KIT AND YOU This Cruise Control Kit is a microprocessor based Cruise Control. It is designed for ease of installation and can be used with most cars, light trucks and vans. Carefully follow the installation procedures in this manual for best results.

Can a schematic diagram show both control and motor?

Schematic diagrams do not always show both control and motor connections. Many schematic diagrams show only the control circuit. Notice in this schematic that there is no complete circuit to M motor starter coil because of the open start push button and open M auxiliary contacts.

How are the terminals connected in a control circuit?

At the top of the diagram, dashed lines indicate that only one set of the primary terminals is to be connected depending on the amount of input volt- age. An input voltage of 480 volts, for example, would have one line connected to the H1 terminal and the other to the H4 terminal.
