Finally managed to strip away the original wires from the connector block on the steering column today to re-fit the cruise control button panel which is now soldered straight in. I've sorted a place to fit the CC buttons which will look flush fitting and factory.

 

Plugged the CC ECU back in and it all works as it should. The only problem being is that if I select cancel, or turn it off (without turning off the master switch) the revs will stay at just under 1800rpm.

 

If I turn the system off completely, then eventually it returns to a normal idle speed.

 

Is there just need for adjustment of the tension on the butterfly? CC cable has more slack than the normal accelerator cable which has the correct amount.

 

If it has more slack, wouldn't you expect this not to happen and the butterfly close completely?

Both my cruise and throttle cables are set at the same tension, so try adjusting the tensioner on the cc cable to match the throttle. Also, does the cc spring return as fast as the throttle side?

moved to help Simon;)

Thanks Bri.

 

Dave, the issue seems to have been sorted. I think because the CC hadn't been used in so long time, it might be been a sticky cable. Seem so now, but will keep an eye on it and adjust if the need arises. :)
