Adding A Cruise Control To A Tdi Afn 110bhp? Possible?

[Ginettamad]

Anyone near York / Leeds with VAG-com who could help me set my CC please as still not managed to get it working yet. Dont mind driving to meet up somewhere?

Thanks

Had the ecu code set today but still not working so maybe something else is wrong? switch was second hand so could that be faulty? VAG.Com Guy who set ecu thought some set ups need a wire adding to ecu but dont know if mine does either way I'm another

The problem is most likely the guy who set the code up for you !

 

Why did he not check the operation of the cruise control using vagcom ?

 

This would have told him what the problem was.

 

 

I would suggest getting vagcom yourself as it is very cheap and solves a lot of problems.

The ecu was set as per above and yes I also tried to set it with my non Gen VAG lead. Dont think it gave any testing options however.

So could be the switch but recently I saw a Gen CC little silver box for sale on ebay for all Gals so could that be missing as mine had no standard CC? I'm sick of pratting about really and frustrated really after all this time. Hence why I want to test alternative switch gear preferably without the computer options on the left stalk as mine has no computer. 99 Zetec.

check the new cables are fitted corectly in ecu

This would have been for all "Petrol" Gals.

 

All you need for the Tdi's is the switch and the cable.

WHAT CABLE??????? I plugged in the switchgear using the same original sockets but is there extra wiring plugs missing I should have?

in ecu check that the following cables are connected

 

pin 44 red

pin 45 blue/green

pin 46 grey

pin 14 black/white

there should also be a live feed to the cc stalk you can check for with a meter

plug is in the cowling just use vagcom to enable it its about here somewhere if not search web for it took me 15mins start to finish on my 99 tdi

[Ginettamad]

Took the S/H CC switches off and checked the connections and yes the extra black socket was there on the CC side stalk and its connected up ok. No extra sockets on the other side on mine as not computer fitted but the new switches have the stalk controls. I Had the code put in using VAG a while back and not got a version handy as it was on a mates old Laptop as I dont own one.

What else controls the CC? Could the switches on the pedals be faulty but not show a problem as no CC has been fitted before?

Will my car have the correct pedal switches fitted and where are they exactly for the CC.

Remember my car is a 99 MK1 Zetec.

Activating Cruise Control (DBW) with VAG-COM:

ECU's often come with cruise control de-activated.

If this is the case, there will not be a letter "G" in the Component

field of VAG-COM when connected to the Engine.

[select]

[01 - Engine]

[Login - 11]

Enter 11463 to activate cruise control

[Do It!]

After doing this procedure, there should be a letter "G" in the

Component field.

 

Any chance of some VAG Com screen prints of this process.

Which is the component field?

Which is the box to check for the G?
