oleskool Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Just like the title says. Looking for a good used part to get my cruise control back up and running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 I probably have one I could spare. Which connector style? Bullet or the small metri-pack? I’ll take your old one as a core if I have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eaglescout526 Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 It’s not one of the kits I made is it? Actually here’s an easy way for me to know. Look at the servo, is the connector to the servo round or rectangle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the servo, is the connector to the servo round or rectangle? No mine is factory installed kit. It started acting up last year where it would just keep climbing in speed. It then worked correctly one last time and died. I checked the speed sensor and didn’t get a signal so I am assuming the surging and random climb in speed was from the sensor slowly dying.

eaglescout526 Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Interesting failure. I’ve had the regulator fail but not the speed sensor. How did you test the sensor out of curiosity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you test the sensor out of curiosity? Hey sorry for the long reply time. Life happens. How do you test the regulator? For the speed sensor I hooked it up to my oscilloscope and checked the signal being generated. Here are pics of the connector under the hood.

eaglescout526 Posted Sunday at 12:24 AM Share Posted Sunday at 12:24 AM That’s the servo itself. The speed sensor is behind the cluster attached to the speedo cable. You can test that with an old speedo cable or the adapter section attached to a drill and the VOM reading I think AC and it will show the pulses. I believe the pulse signal is on the sensor itself.

I did test it. It’s shot. I was sending the plug pic you requested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just let me know how much. Also you mentioned the regulator? Is that the cruise control box or is there another piece I need to check as well?

eaglescout526 Posted yesterday at 03:25 AM Share Posted yesterday at 03:25 AM The regulator is the yellow box yes. And you verified the speed sensor at the speedo cable is sending pulses too correct? Oh hell shoot me a PM and I can send you a regulator and the servo to test and you can send back whatever doesn’t work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
