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 crankshaft position sensor (ne signal) consists of a magnet, iron core
and pickup coil.
The ne signal plate (crankshaft position sensor plate) has 34 teeth and is
installed on the crankshaft. The
ne signal sensor generates 34 signals for each engine revolution. This sensor
monitors a p ...

Basic inspection
Resistance measuring condition of electronic parts
unless stated, all resistance is measured at an ambient
temperature of 20 c (68 °F). As the resistance
may be outside the specifications if measured at high temperatures
immediately after
the vehicle has been running, measu ...
