Title: cruise control
Post by: evereddy on 06 December 2012, 08:26

morning guys.

My cruise control does not work.  The indicator stalk seems 'tired' as the car is high mileage. Is this likely to be the problem? or is there a relay that controls this.

no light comes on the dash at all.  It seems totally dead.

Suggestions welcome! thanks

has it actually been activated? cruise control stalks arent just plug and play, need to be activated with vagcom

Would this not only be the case if the cruise control was retro fitted as opposed to coming from factory?! :huh:
