Cruise control switching off under acceleration


Recommended Posts

Is the set indicator light blinking? If you haven't done so I would suggest you have a look at the handook instructions - page 5-16 (for a 2006 model).

Nope, the set light just goes off, just like I've touched the brake or clutch. It's intermittent so if I hold up the car will accelerate for bit then it may cut out. If I press it up again it will pick up again.

Sounds like a loose or poor connection then or maybe the switch itself is playing up. If it were me I would tempted to try some silicone spray around the swtich, as carefully as possible before taking things apart.

I think the issue was my clutch slipping.

 

Just had the clutch/slave/flywheel replaced at Japex and it's completely fine.

 

Not sure of the mechanics of it but my cruise control has always reset when I press the clutch, presume this is normal? So I'm thinking when I use the cruise control to accelerate the clutch was slipping due to be on its last legs and tricking the cruise control into thinking the clutch has been pressed?

 

Might be a new way of diagnosing a dieing clutch!
