CRUISE CONTROL: DYNAMIC RADAR CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM: Distance Control Switch Circuit
- Distance Control Switch Circuit
DESCRIPTION
The distance control switch sets vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode. The distance control switch is installed in the steering pad switch assembly. The vehicle-to-vehicle distance set value can be changed by operating the steering pad switch assembly (distance control switch) while the dynamic radar cruise control system is operating.

HINT
The spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly makes a maximum of approximately 5 rotations.
(c) Reinstall the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly Installation.
NG -- REPLACE SPIRAL WITH SENSOR CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY Removal
OK -- Continue to next step.
4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SPIRAL WITH SENSOR CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY - DRIVING SUPPORT ECU)
(a) Disconnect the driving support ECU assembly connector.
(b) Disconnect the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly connector.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance (Check for Open):
(d) Reconnect the driving support ECU assembly connector.
(e) Reconnect the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly connector.
NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (SPIRAL WITH SENSOR CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY - DRIVING SUPPORT ECU)
OK -- Continue to next step.
5. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SPIRAL WITH SENSOR CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY - BODY GROUND)
(a) Disconnect the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly connector.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance (Check for Open):

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
