1999-2010 Ford F-250 F-350 Service & Repair Manual

1999 ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT Cruise Control Systems - F250-F550 Super Duty Pickups DESCRIPTION Cruise control system consists of speed control switches (ON, OFF, SET/ACCEL, COAST and RESUME), speed control servo/actuator assembly, brake pedal position switch, clutch pedal position switch, deactivator switch (brake pressure switch) and related wiring. OPERATION ENGAGING & DISENGAGING SYSTEM System is operational at speeds greater than 30 MPH. When ON and SET/ACCEL switches have been pressed, vehicle speed will be maintained until new speed is set, brake or clutch pedal is depressed, or OFF switch is pressed. To increase or decrease set speed, hold SET/ACCEL or COAST switch until desired speed is reached, then release switch. Tap SET/ACCEL or COAST switch for one MPH incremental increase or decrease in speed. ADJUSTMENTS ACTUATOR CABLE Adjustment procedure not available from manufacturer. If there is a problem with high idle due to not enough NOTE: This article includes Cab & Chassis. WARNING: Vehicles are equipped with air bag supplemental restraint system. Before attempting any repairs involving steering column, instrument panel or related components, see SERVICE PRECAUTIONS and DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM in FORD MOTOR CO. - AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEMS article. CAUTION: When battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may exist until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle. See COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES -- FORD MOTOR CO. article in GENERAL INFORMATION before disconnecting battery. NOTE: On 7.3L diesel, all speed control functions are controlled by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). See SELF - DIAGNOSTICS -- 7.3L DIESEL article in ENGINE PERFORMANCE for diagnostic procedures. For diesel engine cruise control system wiring diagrams, see WIRING DIAGRAMS .

length in actuator cable, check for proper cable installation. See ACTUATOR CABLE under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. TROUBLE SHOOTING Perform complete visual inspection of system. Repair as necessary. Ensure speedometer and horn are operating properly. If there are any problems with speedometer or horn, repair those first. See appropriate ANALOG INSTRUMENT PANELS article and/or STEERING COLUMN SWITCHES article. If Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is lit or flashes, check Powertrain Control Module (PCM) for stored Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). See appropriate SELF-DIAGNOSTICS article in ENGINE PERFORMANCE for diagnostic procedures. SYSTEM TESTS SPEED CONTROL SERVO/ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY CONNECTOR TERMINAL IDENTIFICATION The following test procedures reference various terminals on speed control servo/actuator assembly connector. For terminal number, circuit description and wire color, see SPEED CONTROL SERVO/ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY CONNECTOR TERMINAL IDENTIFICATION table. See Fig. 1 . SPEED CONTROL SERVO/ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY CONNECTOR TERMINAL IDENTIFICATION WARNING: Deactivate air bag system before performing any service operation involving steering column components. See appropriate AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEMS article. Do not apply electrical power to any component on steering column without first deactivating air bag system. Air bag may deploy. CAUTION: When battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may exist until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle.

If battery voltage does not exist, go to next step. If battery voltage exists, go to step 5 . 3. Turn ignition switch to LOCK position. Check fuse junction panel fuse No. 28 (10-amp). If fuse is okay, go to next step. If fuse is blown, replace fuse. Test system. If fuse blows again, repair short to ground in Light Blue/Pink wire. 4. Measure resistance between speed control servo/actuator assembly connector terminal No. 10 (Black wire) and ground. See Fig. 1 . If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair open in Light Blue/Pink wire. If resistance is 5 ohms or more, repair open in Black wire. 5. Turn ignition switch to LOCK position. Measure voltage between speed control servo/actuator assembly connector terminals No. 4 (Tan/Light Blue wire) and No. 10 (Black wire). See Fig. 1 . If battery voltage exists, replace brake pedal position switch. If battery voltage does not exist, go to next step. 6. Measure resistance between speed control servo/actuator assembly connector terminals No. 4 (Tan/Light Blue wire) and No. 10 (Black wire). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step. If resistance is 5 9 Brake Pressure Input BLK/YEL 10 Ground BLK NOTE: Ensure horn operates properly before performing this test. Repair as necessary. See WIRING DIAGRAMS in appropriate STEERING COLUMN SWITCHES article.
