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.

Inspection procedure
1 Input signal check
See the input signal check on page 05–745.
check the indicator light when the clutch pedal is depressed.
Ok:
the indicator light goes off when the clutch pedal is
depressed.
2 Inspect terminal voltage(d)
Turn the ignition switch to on.

Calculation formula for your vehicle
1 Cargo capacity
2 Total load capacity (vehicle capacity weight)
When 2 people with the combined weight of A lb. (kg) are riding in your vehicle,
which has a total load capacity (vehicle capacity weight) of B lb. (kg), the available
amount of cargo and luggage load capacity will be C lb. (kg ...
On–vehicle inspection
1. Inspect pressure switch no.1.
Magnetic clutch control:
inspect pressure switch operation.
Set on the manifold gauge set.
Connect the positive (+) lead from the ohmmeter to
terminal 4 and the negative (–) lead to terminal 1.
Check continuity between termin ...
