Talk about the 406's electrical system, what wires do what, how to add extra functionality, etc.

Cruise control will not engage

Post by barbaren »

Hi guys
Help me please. I have fitted my 2004 406 hdi with cruise control.
I've done everything as I should. New brakepedal switch. Adjusted them so they work in the correct order. Activated in Pp2000.
I can see everything works. It turns on. All buttons both + - and pause works. But when I try to engage it. It will not hold the speed.
I have noticed that the clutch switch is inactive both with pedal up and pedal down. Could it be because on that? Or is there something I have forgotten?

Yes, check the clutch switch. Both, brake and clutch, should be working.

The clutch switch needed to be activated in BSI.
