  • This is a normal condition. ADVISE the customer that when a two buttons are pressed simultaneously, the cruise control will go into standby mode. Pressing RESUME will return the vehicle to the memory speed.
The cruise control drops out when pressing buttons
  • Stuck switch detection
  • This is a normal condition. ADVISE the customer that when a switch is pressed with another switch already pressed, cruise control will go into standby mode. Pressing RESUME will return the vehicle to the memory speed.
Speed control is hard to set
  • Stuck switch detection
  • This is a normal condition. ADVISE the customer that the ON switch must be pressed and released before the SET/ACCEL switch is pressed. Speed will set after the SET/ACCEL switch is pressed and released.
