Toyota Corolla (E120): Circuit description

While driving uphill with cruise control activated, in order to minimize gear shifting and provide smooth cruising overdrive may be prohibited temporarily under some conditions.

The cruise control ecu sends o/d cut signals to the ecm as necessary and the ecm cancels overdrive shifting until these signals are discontinued.
