Cruise Control...HELP!
« on: 02 September 2010, 16:30:11 »

I have 2000(X) 2.2CD petrol and have fitted cruise stalk following guidelines on here. Just taken it to local indie to enable. He couldn't get it going so rang local Vauxhall dealer for advice - they said that cruise couldn't be retro-fitted to this model! I know other members have done this, so what's wrong with mine - any advice greatly appreciated. I don't see any point taking it to the Vauxhall dealer and paying good money after what they said to my indie. Perhaps I ought to talk to another dealer? What do you think?

Agree. Should be a piece of cake for somebody who knows his way around Tech2.

PM The Boy for advice, if he can't help you cos he is too far away, he will know somebody closer to you who can help.
