My next step is to check the 3 wires from the switch to the cluster...maybe I put the pins in incorrectly or missed the correct pins on the cluster plug?

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.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

So, I installed the CC hack from Pelican. Got the CC turned on by shop. Light comes on when the key is on. Light comes on when driving. When I pull the lever towards me (interupt?) the green dash light briefly goes out and comes back on when I release the lever. But, if I try to set the speed nothing happens. It is an 03 so the connections are all in the cluster. Can I have some connections ok and others not and still get the light? My next step is to check the 3 wires from the switch to the cluster...maybe I put the pins in incorrectly or missed the correct pins on the cluster plug? Any other thoughts? Thanks Bob

POST 2Original post

"When I pull the lever towards me (interupt?) the green dash light briefly goes out and comes back on when I release the lever. But, if I try to set the speed nothing happens." Not quite sure what you mean by the above. To set your speed you 'push' the lever forward. Is this what is not working?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi...pulling the lever forward is a interrupt of the cc according to the manual and pushing the lever forward sets the cc. It will not set the speed. I was also just saying that pulling the lever turns off the green light until I release it. THanks

POST 4Original post

My CC was a factory install and I've never had an issue. Since some of your functions appear to work and others don't it seems likely that an incorrect pin or bad connection could be the problem. Have you contacted Pelican to see if they have an answer, or gone thru the issue with the shop that turned it on?

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The shop just turned it on. I did the install so the pin confusion is my thought also...guess I take the cluster off again...thanks
