DTC 12 Actuator Magnetic Clutch Circuit
DTC 12 Actuator Magnetic Clutch Circuit
DTC 12 Actuator Magnetic Clutch Circuit
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 has occured 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 light switch 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 has exceeded 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), cruise control at the
set speed is resumed.
