stealth Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 Hello, Another daft question from another newbie..... I have cruise control on my car and it works perfectly.... HOWEVER.... it will not set, nor will it accelerate over 70mph. Id this a common thing with Jap imports ? Ta in advance Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 It works perfectly? but you cannot set it to keep a constant speed? Yes because you have a J-spec it will not go above 70 mph, unless your delimiter is wired up to allow you set it at over 70 mph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends how you wire the delimiter, even if it does not have a delimiter it will still stay at 70mph on cruise. My old J-spec was wired up so that the cruise control could be set at any speed had it set at 140 leptons. Not tested my UK spec to see if that is limited to 70mph.

In all honesty James, I do not even know where my Cruise Control is cause I doubt I would ever use it anyways as I would prolly fall asleep driving. Specially now I got an auto which mean nothing but put your foot down on the loud pedal anyways. LOL PS: Wish you was coming to our meet next weekend, would love to meet you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stealth Posted February 2, 2008 Author Share Posted February 2, 2008 riiiiiiiiight gotcha..... my car is delimeted by an Apexi RSM so I'm guessing the Cruise will only work up to 70mph, that's fair enough, just wanted to make sure there was nothing sketchy going on iwth my motor really being a complete newbie an all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only GZ models had it iirc. Cornwall is a bit of a trek for a meet. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrickTT Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Back on topic, any delimiter can work with the stock cruise control, you just need to run a wire from the multiplug on the back of the odometer to the cruise ecu (which is on the left of the steering column behind the dash) so it gets its speed input in mph instead of kph. That will give you a maximum cruise speed of 110mph instead of 110kph(70) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas? mine does the same If your speedo reads in mph and your odo counts up in miles, replacing the speed pulse wire will work, make sure you cut the original pink wire though.
