Retro fit v6 cruise control frustration
 
Dear All
I've just fitted cruises control on my 190+ v6. The master switch lights up but the cruise will not engage when the steering wheel controls are used. I have changed the brake pedal switch for a new one from Rimmer Bros and have a clutch pedal switch. All of the wiring was already in place. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Did you fit the vacuum pump, and the throttle body actuator Marcus, just you don't mention them?

Brian :D

Try lifting the brake & clutch pedals in turn with your foot when engaging the cruise control system-simple things first!

Could be somthing else but i vaguely remember somthing about a certain type of horn being required to be fitted for it to work. The plug for it was near the ecu area i think.
