Kia Picanto: Engine Electrical System / Cruise Control System
Description and operation
The
cruise control system is engaged by the cruise "ON/OFF" main switch
located on right of steering wheel column. The system has the capability
to cruise, coast, accelerate and resume speed.
It also has a safety interrupt, engaged upon depressing brake or shifting select lever.
The
ECM is the control module for this system. The main components of
cruise control system are mode control switches, transmission range
switch, brake switch, vehicle speed sensor, ECM and ETS motor that
connect throttle body.
The ECM contains a low speed limit which will prevent system engagement below a minimum speed of 40km/h (25mph).
The operation of the controller is controlled by mode control switches located on steering wheel.
Transmission
range switch and brake switch are provided to disengage the cruise
control system. The switches are on brake pedal bracket and
transmission. When the brake pedal is depressed or select lever shifted,
the cruise control system is electrically disengaged and the throttle
is returned to the idle position.
Cruise main switch (CRUISE) |
The
cruise control system is engaged by pressing the cruise "ON/OFF" main
switch. Pressing the cruise "ON/OFF" main switch again releases
throttle, clears cruise memory speed, and puts vehicle in a non-cruise
mode.
The "SET/–" switch located on right of steering wheel column has two functions.
The
set function - Push the "SET/–" switch and release it at the desired
speed. The SET indicator light in the instrument cluster will
illuminate. Release the accelerator pedal. The desired speed will
automatically be maintained.
The
coast function - Push the "SET/–" switch and hold it when the cruise
control is on. The vehicle will gradually slow down. Release the switch
at the desired speed. The desired speed will be maintained.
Push the "SET/–" switch and release it quickly. The cruising speed will decrease by 2km/h or 1mph.
Resume/Accel switch (RES/+) |
The "RES/+" switch located on right of steering wheel column has two functions.
The
resume function - If any method other than the cruise “ON/OFF” main
switch was used to cancel cruising speed temporarily and the system is
still activated, the most recent set speed will automatically resume
when the "RES/+" switch is pushed. It will not resume, however, if the
vehicle speed has dropped below approximately 40km/h (25mph).
The
accel function - Push the "RES/+" switch and hold it when the cruise
control is on. The vehicle will gradually accelerate. Release the switch
at the desired speed. The desired speed will be maintained.
Push the "RES/+" switch and release it quickly. The cruising speed will increase by 2km/h or 1mph.
The cruise control system is temporarily disengaged by pushing the "CANCEL" switch.
Cruise speed canceled by this switch can be recovered by pushing the "RES/+" switch.

Troubleshooting
Trouble symptom
|
Probable cause
|
Remedy
|
The set vehicle speed varies greatly upward or downward "Surging" (repeated alternating acceleration and deceleration) occurs after setting
| Malfunction of the vehicle speed sensor circuit
| Repair the vehicle speed sensor system, or replace the part
|
Malfunction of ECM
| Check input and output signals at ECM
|
Trouble symptom
|
Probable cause
|
Remedy
|
The CC system is not canceled when the brake pedal is depressed
| Damaged or disconnected wiring of the brake pedal switch
| Repair the harness or replace the brake pedal switch
|
Malfunction of the ECM signals
| Check input and output signals at ECM
|
Trouble symptom
|
Probable cause
|
Remedy
|
The
CC system is not canceled when the shift lever is moved to the "N"
position (It is canceled, however, when the brake pedal is depressed)
| Damaged or disconnected wiring of inhibitor switch input circuit
| Repair the harness or repair or replace the inhibitor switch
|
Improper adjustment of inhibitor switch
|
Malfunction of the ECM signals
| Check input and output signals at ECM
|
Trouble symptom
|
Probable cause
|
Remedy
|
Cannot decelerate (coast) by using the "SET/–" switch
| Temporary damaged or disconnected wiring of "SET/–" switch input circuit
| Repair the harness or replace the "SET/–" switch
|
Malfunction of the ECM signals
| Check input and output signals at ECM
|
Trouble symptom
|
Probable cause
|
Remedy
|
Cannot accelerate or resume speed by using the "RES/+" switch
| Damaged or disconnected wiring, or short circuit, or "RES/+" switch input circuit
| Repair the harness or replace the "RES/+" switch
|
Malfunction of the ECM signals
| Check input and output signals at ECM
|
Trouble symptom
|
Probable cause
|
Remedy
|
CC
system can be set while driving at a vehicle speed of less than 40km/h
(25mph), or there is no automatic cancellation at that speed
| Malfunction of the vehicle-speed sensor circuit
| Repair the vehicle speed sensor system, or replace the part
|
Malfunction of the ECM signals
| Check input and output signals at ECM
|
Trouble symptom
|
Probable cause
|
Remedy
|
The cruise main switch indicator lamp does not illuminate (But CC system is normal)
| Damaged or disconnected bulb of cruise main switch indicator lamp
| Repair the harness or replace the part.
|
Harness damaged or disconnected
