Read evidence and context

Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that contain suggestions: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Suggestion
To make the loom, there is a Delphi 10-pin plug you need for the actuator, a crimp terminal to go on one of the bridge plugs, and some VW repair wires to connect to the stalk.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi So I have a desire to fit cruise control to my early 996, for average speed zones and the like, have managed to assemble what I believe is all the hardware to do so with the exception of the correct loom. Would welcome help, advice, pictures, wiring diagrams etc anything really that would enable me to finish what I have started. If anyone has actually done this then I would love to hear from you or of you know someone who has then an introduction would be much appreciated. Have a great day! Chris

POST 2Original post

I did it on my 1998 C2 many years ago. You need the actuator and mounting bracket, a stalk unit, and some wiring. I bought a complete throttle pedal and cable, but later found that you can split the existing pedal and fit the cable from the actuator to it. I did it at the same time as a fellow in Canada, and he wrote up a DIY with a bit of input from me, including the wiring diagram. To make the loom, there is a Delphi 10-pin plug you need for the actuator, a crimp terminal to go on one of the bridge plugs, and some VW repair wires to connect to the stalk. If you would like a copy, drop me a PM with your email address.
