Toyota Corolla (E120): Circuit description
This circuit turns on the magnetic clutch inside the actuator during cruise control operation according to the signal from the ecu. If a malfunction occurs in the actuator or speed sensor, etc. During cruise control operation, the rotor shaft between the motor and control plate is released.
When the brake pedal is depressed, the stop lamp switch assy turns on, supplying electrical power to the stop light. Power supply to the magnetic clutch is mechanically cut and the magnetic clutch is turned off.
When driving downhill, if the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed by 8 km/h (5 mph), the ecu turns the safety magnet clutch off. If the vehicle speed later drops to within 5 km/h (3 mph) above the set speed, then cruise control at the set speed is resumed.

Wheels
If a wheel is bent, cracked or
heavily corroded, it should
be replaced. Otherwise, the
tire may separate from the
wheel or cause a loss of
handling control.
Wheel selection
When replacing wheels, care
should be taken to ensure that
they are equivalent to those
removed in load capacity, diameter,

Canceling and resuming the constant speed control
1 Pulling the lever toward you cancels the constant speed control.
The speed setting is also canceled when the brakes are applied or the clutch
pedal (manual transmission) is depressed.
2 Pushing the lever up resumes the constant speed control.
Resuming is available when the vehicle speed is mo ...
