Retrofitted the CC today,two minute job for the switch but a bit longer modifying the cowling.The question is how doe's the CC work have road tested it and it works,i know that pushing the switch away from you turns it on but not sure what the button on the end of the stalk does,and how doe you increase and decrease the speed with the switch.Thanks
 
its all in the manual...

push away to set
push away whilst set to increase
pull towards you to decrease
knock the switch up or down to cancel
brake or clutch to cancel
push the button on the end to resume your cruise speed

Cruise speed resets itself when you erm turn the ignition off

:thumbsup:
 
Did'nt even think of looking in the manual but Cheers fella,thanks for that much appreciated.

Thats a job I must do! Did you go down the switch only route? and was the part sourced from our local dealer in Durham

Yes just bought the switch £60.10 from Elvets in durham,the parts guy mentioned that he has had few Zed owners in ordering just the switch.The full kit is £150 so doing the cowling yourself will save you £90 so if you got a steady hand and a dremel or similar then go for it. :thumbsup:

Thanks for that - I'm on my way to Elvet.
I've even borrowed a Dremel !

Glad to be of help :thumbsup:


The switch is ordered and the dremel is ready! A job for the weekend I reckon.

Are the cowel securing bolts obvious or are there some hidden?

undo the steering height adjustment lever and the screw is right there. just the one screw then just clips round the middle.

Hey Ronk,

Did you have to buy the wiring loom seperately with that switch or did it come with?

No - I went down the "switch only" route as my car is a pre Oct 04 car.
It cost only £60 and a few pennies from the main dealer. The switch looks better value than the extra £90 they charge for the loom and lower cowel!

Just done the "fit" today - simple in the extreme!

While swmbo was making a sandwich, the cowel was off, the lead plugged in an the assy shoved onto the column.
I took a bit of care with the cowl cutting process and it looks tickety boo!

Thanks all who advised - without you, this £60 job would have cost £300. :thumbsup:

Now what's the next toy to buy?
 
A beer for the contributors then a weekend break somewhere up the motorway to test the cruise control and spend the saved £240 :)

Glad the fit was an easy one Ronk :D There is nothing more satisfying then a mod that works fist time with no bodging!

Im gonna have to do some homework on here to get the details for my Cruise fit, whenever that comes!
