The car is a 2.0 55 reg. If it helps anyone.... On the nearside wing is the box which holds the ecu. The 26 pin plug, plugs into the ecu. There are a few plugs which go into the ecu, including two 26 pin plugs; one is black, one white. You use the black one of course! You need to dismantle the ecu plug holder pusher thingy to pull out the black 26 pin plug as otherwise you can't get access to pin 4. Mine already had a wire in it and BMW say if that's the case to join the blue wire to that wire.
Now... because the blue wire from the cruise control has to be joined to the long cruise control wire, so there is already a split in the wire, so.., I detached the original wire in pin 4, and plugged the blue wire in there. I then attached the original wire from the ecu to the join from the blue wire to the cruise control.... does this make sense?
Hopefully this may help someone!

Which buttons? You just push the stalk forward, have to be over about 30mph though0xid0 wrote:HI,
I installed the cruise control in mi Z4 3.0 12/2003, plugged the cable, but the cruise control doesn't work. I tried to push all buttons but no result... why?

The button is used if you turn it off, press the button in and speed will go back to the last setting. To actually engage / turn on the cruise control, you just push the stalk forwards, I.e. towards thee front of the car. Pushing it forwards again will increase speed and pulling it back will slow down. To turn it off, touch the brake, or push the stalk up or down. I never use the button on the left. Unfortunately no lights or gauges appear.0xid0 wrote:The left button.wilbo wrote:Which buttons? You just push the stalk forward, have to be over about 30mph though0xid0 wrote:HI,

When the cruise control enters in action, in the gauges appears any light? Thanks
