Res/Accel Switch

2000 Saturn SL1 L4-1.9L SOHC VIN 8SECTION Res/Accel Switch
The RES/ACCEL switch has several functions:
1. If the vehicle has been in cruise engaged mode, and cruise has been disabled by pressing the brake and/or clutch pedals, the vehicle can be returned to the original set speed by pressing the RES/ACCEL button one time. The switch must be pressed for a period greater than 0.06 seconds, but less than one second.
2. Holding the RES/ACCEL switch in the accelerate position will cause the vehicle to accelerate until the switch is released, resulting in new cruise speed. The switch must be pressed for a period greater than 1.4 seconds.
3. When cruise is engaged, tapping the RES/ACCEL switch will cause the cruise set speed to be raised in increments of 2 km/h (1 mph) for each momentary press of the RES/ACCEL switch. This is the TAP UP feature. The switch must be pressed for a period greater than 0.06 seconds, but less than 1.4 seconds.
