Oh, I think I should have it somewhere on my HDD. Thanks for the tip, I'll see if it's of any use. Don't bother yourself with picturing it :)

This picture material is the best of what I could have hoped for :) Thank you very much! But unfortunately it seems I don't have the wiring :( Now I'm trying to find out, if it's possible to fit the wiring myself, or is the whole cabling of the car in one piece. Hope it's not. Thank you so much for the pictures!

Is PJ Morgan a user in here or what? :P Sorry, didn't quite get what you meant.

Anyway, if I don't have the wiring, would it be possible to take it from another car and fit it to mine? Or should I just wire it somehow by myself. I have the hardware and it shouldn't be impossible to make it work. At least it should hold the speed, don't care so much about increase/decreas and other functions..

Doesn't anyone have a 2.0L with cruise-control? :S Anyway, who knows anything about CC wiring. Where do those cables run from the hob and from the servo?

5
Thanks, was of great help! But how should I run the iron wire to the valve? Don't seem to have anything to attach it to..

6
Thanks, but could someone hook me up with some picture material?

Hi, just bought a cruise control unit, but can't understand, how to fit it. If anyone has a cruise control on a prefacelift Omega B with 2.0 ECOTEC engine, please, could you upload a picture? And could it be, that I don't have the plug cruise-control hob? I didn't find it :S Starting to guess my 1996 Omega B GL isn't wired enough to fit it..

Heh, as headlights are obligatory in Estonia 24/7, I'm just too used to expect everyone to use their headlights, whenever, wherever. That, however, has caused many dangerous situations, as your eyes, being so used to search for other lights, often don't registrate vehicles with no lights - you just can't see them. Fortunately, I haven't had any accidents due to that, but I have come close. For example, when going into a roundabout or just some intersection where you have to give way. You look, you see no lights, your perception registrates them as backround and off you go. That is way evil. Sometimes I wish they weren't obligatory, so there couldn't be such situations. But on the other hand, I think it's much better to notice other drivers when THEY DO use their headlights all the time.

And I still haven't found my K59 relay. Haven't really searched either, though :D

Hey blokes, where's this K59 relay located? Can't find any info from the internet :D Only about Omega As, I have B year '96.

10
Lol, that should be called "an easy task made easier" :)

Your car possibly supplied for Swedish market - running lights on with ignition is legal requirement there.
The first owner of my car was a leasing company in Estonia. Maybe my car is just from the same patch that was meant for Swedish market.. But I'm trying to find out, how large part of Estonian Omegaowners have that function included.. I'll let you know :)

If you remove fuse 8, it should disable that.
Yeap, but would removing that fuse allow my side lights to work when the lights switch is in position II and III?

Anyway, all in all.. I think it's either the K59 relay or the 8th fuse. Therefore I think my problem is solved now and I gotta thank you all for your help. I registered here because of that problem but I'm not going to leave anymore, hehe :) I like it here!

We tend to be very lazy over here. The rest of the world learns English from a very young age so we often don't bother to learn another language.
Yeap, that's how it tends to be with larger nations. If I pick a random direction and drive 300km from my current location, I can be 99% sure noone would understand Estonian there ;) And I can be quite happy that I have had the chance to learn many different languages, including English, Swedish, Russian, German and even Latin ;) I'm not saying I can communicate in all of 'em, but atleast I can analyze different languages thanks to what I know, and of course to some point I can communicate with people in their native language, which people do respect, according to my experience ;)

Alright, have a great week ;)

Ha, thanks for the English tips ;) Anyway, I tried to get help from an Estonian Omega forum also and it seems that everyone in Estonia also have automatic lights. I guess you people live in GB, right? Then I just think that Omegas that have been released under the Vauxhall trademark might be a little different (not to mention your steering wheel is on the right side :P).. I even almost got the answer to my question, the relay should be somewhere under some plastic near the passanger's seat. And I suppose there might be a chance for you to turn that function ON by connecting something to something in there :P though I dunno if that's what anyone wants.. Anyway, thanks for being so helpful and all..

Cheers ;)

Your English is great by the way.  :)
First I gotta say thanks :P

But now I'm really confused.. You people are saying that when you start drivin' you have to do something so that the lights would be on? I don't! When I start my engine - lights are on.

Do you guys have to turn the round button (or whatever) to turn on any kind of lights (again I'm not sure how they are called in English.. I mean the regular lights you use when you drive in regular conditions)? As I don't have to change anything. When I leave the button (?) or switch (?) in the same state they are in the shown picture (did you click on the link already :P?), the lights are on. And I just installed xenon lights to my Omega and I have heard that turning on your xenons too often is the only factor that causes your lights to wear off.. (damn, that sentence doesn't look like proper English at all :P).. anyway so I thought that when I'm driving at the nighttime, I first turn on the engine (and the lights also turn on), then I turn the switch shown on the picture, so that I could see what my speed-o-meter and tachnometer (again I don't know how should I call the whole thing together... clocks? the speed-o-meter block? whatever, right) are showing... when the switch is sat on 0-state, only the headlights and parking lights are working.. when I turn it to the IIIrd position, all the lights inside the car also start to glow (positive factor at night :P).. soo..... I start the engine, xenons are on, I turn the switch - xenons fade/die/what_the_opps_ever for a sec and then they turn on again (and that's supposed to kill them in the longer perspective)... so if I could somehow turn of the automatic thing, I would save my xenons.. Lol that was some long text, I have drank couple of beers tonight also so that wasn't so easy to compie all that text :P Anyway, I hope I made clear all my thoughts.. And really, no Omega has automatic headlights? Damn, then it should be as easy as removing someone's personal modification or what?

Anyway,
Thanks in advance, all of you ;)

I don't know what the answer is, but I suspect it's got 'Tech 2' in it.
What does that mean, mate?


-edit-
Alright, it seems it's somekind of a tool of diagnostics. Can you reprogram your car's "brain" (the right word doesn't come to my mind at the moment as English isn't my native language)? I'm still hoping I could do that just by removing somekind of a relay or a fuse or something like that :P Or by cutting some wire or something..

15
Hi guys,
would anyone be so kind and tell me if there's a way to remove the system that turns on the lights automatically? I mean like removing some relay or anything?

Thanks in advance,
Joh from Estonia ;)
