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.

Overhaul
Hint:
overhaul the rh side by the same procedure as the lh side.
1. Remove front wheel
2. Drain brake fluid
Notice:
wash the brake fluid off immediately if it comes into contact with any painted
surface.

Pre–check
1. Pre–check
Check that the cruise control actuator assy, acceleration wire,
accelerator auto drive cable assy, and
link assy are installed correctly and that the wire and link are securely
connected.
check that the operating movement of the acceleration pedal, cruise
control actu ...
