Cruise control cancelling

[hanny77]

Evening all.

I have a query regards the cruise control.
It seems as though it needs a fair bit of brake pedal travel before cancelling the cruise control. Is this the same as everybody else's? A feature?

I don't know whether this is going to help or simply add to your jitters, but the tiniest dab on mine kills the cruise.

I've got three pedals though, and it may be subtly different on the lazy man's version.

I second that. The tiniest touch on my brake pedal stops my CC. Mine is an Auto.

This is very much what I expected, and to be honest, hoped to hear. I couldn't really believe that mine was right.


I'm going to check my brake switch again this morning. When I fitted it I eased the brake pedal back in to position as it states in the fitting guide, but what I think I then did was pull the brake pedal up from behind to make sure it was all the way up. I remember hearing a click from the switch when I did it, and I'm wondering if I pushed the pin too far in as it's starting point?
Will redo it this morning and see what happens.

Can anyone confirm with the brake pedal switch install if you press the pedal down and let it rise, or leave the pedal and insert it? I've just read some conflicting install guides.


I'm also reading in to it that I need to buy another switch, as it is a one shot chance once primed?


Confirmation on the above points would be most welcome and appreciated.

Sorted.
Refitted the switch, but this time didn't press the pedal down first. Now CC turns off at slightest tickle. Perfect.
