How-To - e89 Cruise Control Retro-fit

When setting the cruise, should there be a light on the speedo showing the set speed as per the owners manual, or is it just the central display that comes on for 2 seconds then goes out?

Hi Jon,
As you say it's only the central display. You can have the speedo indication but you'd need to change the whole cluster which is a whole new ball game!

Thanks for the reply, yeah that's what I thought. Really chuffed with the install and thanks again for your excellent guide and YouTube vid.

I've found that you can just press the end button and it will show the speed again anyway

Cheers

Have you loaded the new profiles (as per the How-To)?
At step 22 it should be "Expermodus (offen)"

I'm currently in the process of re-writing the How-To with a new source for the BMW Tools program download that is entirely in English! Hopefully I'll have this uploaded over the Christmas holiday period, and a new YouTube video to go with it all. :thumbsup:

Ok, for your initial profile (step 3) go with "Expertenmodus (Werkseinstellung)"
Then for the second profile (step 22) go with "FSWPSW-MANIPULATE"

That should sort it out. :thumbsup:

I hit this problem too a couple of weeks ago when fitting mine - as above, the actual downloaded file behind that profile name above is indeed the "Expermodus (offen)" file! Very confusing when you're sitting in a freezing car cradling a laptop at 11:30 pm :D

Forgot one thing too - I've thanked elsewhere but possibly in a thread Dave hasn't stumbled upon, so just to re-iterate...

Huge thanks to Dave and his guides - the YouTube video was absolutely invaluable.

Having completed it myself cradle to grave and written off most of a weekend doing so - I would strongly advise anyone else to just pay Dave to do it.

Thanks guys :thumbsup:

There is a new How-To video due out over Christmas along with the new program source and written guide. I've just got to screen-grab the new shots to go into the guide and it'll be ready. There is some more info included, things like the torque setting for the steering wheel nut and more info on the types of stalks etc :thumbsup:
