Title: Cruise Stopped Working
Post by: Proz on 29 October 2008, 12:10:34
Hi all....
Drove the car this morning to an appointment , cruise worked fine ..... drove on the way back and its not working now .   No fault codes showing. I added the cruise stalk myself after i bought a cheepy on fleabay ...then got Vx to activate it , been working fine for a few months . Is it likely to be the cheap stalk at fault ?

not necessarily the stalk bnut could be

no other symptoms? like speedo not working?

check relevant fuses, also check brake and clutch switch if fitted

HAd this problem on my old vectra when i stopped after using it and started again it wouldn't work. I found that if you pressed the brake and the clutch it then worked again. Always seemed to happen when i stopped at a service station and then set off onto the motorway again, just a quick press on the clutch and brake when i was up to speed and all of a sudden it was working again! Hope that helps!
