pa06has Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 a one for you techies! I have cruise control but it doesnt work! - the light on the dash comes on but does not activate any sort of cruise control! Im guessing that if the light comes on, all the supporting wires are working!? I then checked under the bonnet and checked out the cruise control unit! which all seems to be in top order! any suggestions where to look now? and what to look out for?

flukey-lukey Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 after pressing the button did you fiddle with the cruise control stick? It moves backwards and forwards and iirc up too so you can set your desired speed Took me a while to work out how to use mine, but then I decided its pretty pointless on todays congested roads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pa06has Posted March 22, 2008 Author Share Posted March 22, 2008 Hi Luke, yeh i have messed around with it! tried changing it to different speeds! - just doesnt du ewt! Im convinced that something is missing as, the light works fine which i beleive suggests the connection to the unit is also working! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flukey-lukey Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 hmmm, sorry if this sounds like I think you're stupid, but you're not pressing the brake or go go pedal when you turn it on are you? As this will automatically disable it. other than what I've said above I have no idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul mac Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 you are at the correct speed ?, IIRC the j-spec cruise only engages between 30-70 mph, over or under it will not work (safety feature !) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelfill Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 may be scuppered by a dodgy speedo conversion also, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried arange of different speeds - tryin to get the damn thing to work! good point Mike, if its been converted they have probably snipped the wrong wire, it could be tricky to fix tracing back what the installer has done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad88 Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Alright I've just completed my CC install on my J-spec. The Cruise light comes on but when I go to set it, it just flashes the green cruise light. I just seen it only activates at 30mph+ pretty sure I was doing atleast that when I just took it for a drive. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
