My cruise control has not worked since I did a motor/trans swap. What needs to be rewired to get it to work with the manual trans? I put in a new cruise unit and it is getting power as is the switch on the dash but the cruise light won't come on in the gauge cluster. I have searched for the answer and came up with nothing. Please help.

Ehhh, what kind of bulbs you got in your tails?

So does the cruise work and the light just wont come on?

LED's. And yes, the light comes on in the switch but the cruise does not work.

Search no more.

Go replace your LED bulbs with regular bulbs and your cruise will work.

I posted about this about a year ago.

And brought it back up a few days ago.

So one load equalizer per side should take care of the problem right?

REDZMAN

It might. No one has tried it as far as I know.

LED bulbs are not legal for road use anyways, and I almost got hit too many times from behind because the bulbs aren't bright enough to see during the day.

Just swap em out, or give the resistor loads a try.

what about cars that have LEDs tail lights in stock?

REDZMAN

If you mean those LED panels for taillights, that's different. They are approved.

Mad-Machine

yes, the LED panals are approved, the LED units that replace a lamp are not. They are too small and do not put out enough lumins.
