Toyota Corolla (E120): Circuit description
When driving uphill under cruise control, in order to reduce the number of shifting due to on–off overdrive operation and to provide smooth driving, when down shifting in the electronically controlled transmission occurs, a signal to prevent upshift until the end of the uphill slope is sent from the cruise control ecu assy to the electronically controlled transmission.
Terminal ect of the cruise control ecu assy detects the shift change signal (output to electronically controlled transmission no.2 Solenoid) from the ecm.
If the vehicle slows down, also when terminal ect of the cruise control ecu assy receives down shifting signal, it sends a signal from terminal od to ecm to cut overdrive until the end of the uphill slope, and the number of gear shifts are reduced and gear shift points in the electronically controlled transmission are changed.

Circuit description
The vehicle speed sensor circuit is sent to cruise control ecu assy as a
vehicle speed signal. For each rotation
of the shaft, the vehicle speed sensor sends a signal through the combination
meter assembly to the
cruise control ecu assy (see the following chart). The cruise control ecu assy

Disabling the TRAC system
If the vehicle gets stuck in mud, dirt or snow, the TRAC system may reduce power
from the engine to the wheels. Pressing
to turn the system off may make it
easier for you to rock the vehicle in order to free it.
To turn the TRAC system off, quickly press and release
.
The “TRAC OFF” ind ...
Hood
Adjustment
Hint:
since the centering bolt is used as a hood hinge and hood lock
set bolt, the hood and hood lock can not be adjusted with it on.
Substitute a bolt with washer for the centering bolt.
1. Inspect hood sub–assy
Check that the clearance is within the standard value.
