Acadia FWD V6-3.6L (2007)
The engine control module (ECM) disengages the cruise control operation based on the signals from the following switches:
*
The on/off switch
*
The cancel switch
*
The brake pedal position (BPP) sensor
The cruise control system will disengage when the brake pedal is applied. The body control module (BCM) monitors the BPP sensor via the BPP sensor
signal circuit as the voltage signal increases while the pedal reaches the fully applied position. The ECM monitors the BPP signal through a discrete
input and a GMLAN serial data message signal from the BCM indicating the brake status. When both signals indicate the brake pedal is applied, the
ECM will disengage the cruise control system. For further information on the BPP sensor, refer to Exterior Lighting Systems Description and Operation
and Brake Pedal Position Sensor Calibration.
The cruise control system will also disengage when the cruise control on/off switch is switched OFF, or the cruise control cancel switch is activated. The
body control module (BCM) determines when the cruise control cancel switch is activated. When the normally open cancel switch is closed, the BCM
detects the predetermined voltage signal on the cruise control function switch circuit. The vehicle speed stored in the memory of the engine control
module will be erased when the cruise control On/Off switch is turned OFF, or the ignition switch is turned OFF. The BCM sends a GMLAN serial data
message to the ECM in order to disengage the cruise control system. The cruise control system will disengage when the ECM detects that a driver
override function has been active for approximately 60 seconds. When the cruise control system has been disengaged, the ECM sends a GMLAN serial
message to the instrument panel cluster (IPC) in order to turn OFF the Cruise Engaged indicator.
The cruise control system will disengage when the ECM detects that a driver override function has been active for approximately 60 seconds.
Cruise Control Inhibited
The engine control module (ECM) inhibits the cruise control operation when any of the following conditions exist:
*
The ECM has not detected a brake pedal activation from the body control module (BCM).
*
A cruise control related DTC has been set.
*
The antilock brake system/traction control system is active for more than 2 seconds.
*
The engine RPM is too low.
*
The engine RPM is too high.
*
The system voltage is not between 9-16 volts.
*
The vehicle speed is less than 40 km/h (25 mph).
*
The vehicle speed is too high.
*
The vehicle is in PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, or 1st gear.
