Finished rebuilding the dash ect this afternoon so tonight, I've just been for a blast up the M62 
In its self, the car is going, eh very well   

Right, the very weird bit 
Select cruise in any gear between 2 and 4 and it works perfectly 
You can adjust the speed up and down and it totally disengages with a touch of the brake or clutch pedal 
BUT select cruise in 5th and it totally fails to engage regardless of vehicle speed or engine speed 
No eml or anything.

Car is a 3.2 that has been converted to manual

Instant thought .. is the cruise ECU from a manual or an auto ?? as the auto only has 4 gears, perhaps the ecu does not recognise "5th"... but I know knowt about ECU configurations ...perhaps it needs a chat with a tech2  to tell it that it's now a manual ??

[ronnyd]

Too many pedals?

Eeee he could well be right here.

Doesn't take too long to reprogram to manual

That was my first thought Nige but the manual gearbox has no electrical connection other then a switch for the reverse lamp 

The Auto gearbox ECU has been totally disconnected and the car has had a couple of trips to Marks gaff for various updates including the one to tell the main ecu that its a manual 

I'm wondering that due to the clutch switch and wiring back the main ecu only just been completed, the relevant programming didn't take 
 

[tigers_gonads]

The cars a DBW throttle so no separate cruise ecu.
Its all done via the main engine ecu

[tigers_gonads]

Too many pedals?

   

[Andy B]

Too many pedals?

   

But you know that Ronny is right .........  ....

[Doctor Gollum]

Unplug the auto ecu if not already done... Top in the auto will be a similar ratio to 4th on the manual... Engine ecu is probably confused ta fook

Eh, we've been here before remember 



And the answers still the same

Gearbox ecu totally unplugged Al 

[Kevin Wood]

What diff ratio do you have?

[tigers_gonads]

What diff ratio do you have?

We kept the original 3.9 diff off the automatic Kev.

[Doctor Gollum]

Might need a couple of pins removing from the ecu plugs to balance the one fitted... will do some further digging

Also bear in mind that cruise doesn't normally work above a certain speed... 130 springs to mind

Do tell me more 

[Doctor Gollum]

Pm incoming

[Lincs Robert]

What if you change straight from 3rd to 5th - miss a gear out & see what happens .....

[TheBoy]

I think you'll find the system really ain't that clever to know what gear its in

[Marks DTM Calib]

Well as the speed comes from the ABS the diff ratio will have nothing to do with things.

Which is why the LS1 is electrically easy to install to a working fashion

[tigers_gonads]

Just to answer a few of Al's pm questions ............

Yes, the cars ABS/ TC works okay 
Yes, the reversing lights work okay 

Pretty sure the old gearbox plug is bagged and stowed away and the auto box ecu (above the accerator pedal) is definetly unplugged 

The cars due a oil and filter change but it will be next week at the earliest before I get chance so I will physically check the plug then 

Cut or remove pin 21, what does that do 

Right, been driving a Peugeot Boxer LWB van since 5:30 this morning.
opps, they are oppsing shite to drive 
Hateful sack of shite that refuses to go in a straight line unless you have your foot on the floor and unstable as opps at all other times 
And then you find out the brakes are as shite as the handling and ride 

God, I have missed my omega today 








Just to add, thank you swear word filter

Specifically the one next to the battery.

Mid Pin 21 only tells the Mid it's an auto

Remove the fuses in turn and together and report back
