my cruise control hasnt been working. i get the cruise light to work, but it will not set and the set light doesnt come on. so far, ive established that the following are working:

ascd clutch switch
ascd brake switch
stop lamp switch
p/n (gear select) switch
TPS

i have a bad r/f abs sensor (abs light on)

any ideas?

 

we need a year

 

oh ya. well, 03 6mt

 

cool...because on the 00-01, its cable cruise...and electronic on the 02-03.

i dont know the answer...but now it will make is easier for others to help

 

yeah. ive been going over the operation diagram from the FSM and it sort of looks like an operating ABS circuit is necessary for the control. im not sure though, but if thats true i would guess that its for the vehicle speed input

 

yeah...ok then

 

i have a issue with mine also, it surges all the time, its up and down and up and down,

 

My ABS light was on for a year or so and the CC was fully functional, i think they are unrelated. I have a 02 6sp, however it was the rear sensors that were bad, not sure if that makes a difference.

 

Cable problem

 

ASCD steering steering switch

 

Cable is fine, no tightness

 

you should take a video of this, mine surges and its normal, its just how the cc works, but its not really serious, just annoying sometimes, but if yours is really bad its different. we would need to see it to get an idea.

PS: my switch is fine im pretty sure. i can get the lights to work and im pretty sure it sends a signal to the ECU when i hit set. either way, im in the process of getting a new abs sensor, so well see if that does it.

 

Its not a heavy surge, but its annoying, like pressing the gas, releasing slowly and over and over.

 

does it happen constantly? could be a vacuum leak in one of the cc units

 

Its constant like a up and down ride, i replaced the vacuum lines and still does it.

 

what i meant was a vacuum leak in the actual control device itself. sounds kind of like what happens when a master cylinder is leaking vacuum. leaks out until its low and then you have to recover. for cc that would mean slowing down until the vacuum is low enough for it to be noticed and then speeding up to recover. i dont know though, just my speculation. not a lot can go wrong with a cable cc

 

That sounds about right, ill have to test it with a vacuum gauge when i get a chance, its not a major concern because i dont travel alot on open roads to used it.

 

yeah, same reason i havent dealt with it over the past 1.5 yrs it hasnt been working. i just figured it was time. lol
