Which VIC show?

THX mate,

The VIC 4WD show on at Wandin on 17.02.2008?

Thanks, I just had a word with SWMBO and I recon we'll be there!
I didn't realise it was so soon!

The pins on the ECU will be connected the following way:
Pin 10 - ignition +12V
Pin 11 - switch 1 (set function)
Pin 15 - ignition +12V
Pin 17 - switch 2 (resume function)

Pin 19 - is only mentioned, that you can connect here the available TD5 tachometer, not used for the cruise control

So the cruise control works by supplying ignition +12V to pin 10/15 permanently and the functions are activated by supplying the same temporary to pin 11 or 17.

For getting the ignition switched +12V (Zuendplus Klemme 15), if I remember correctly, when I had last time my dash off, use the green/white cable at the temperature or fuel gauge in the dash. Put two switches on the dash and run a long cable to the ECU.

More clear now? It works on my TD5 :D but no guarantee :wasntme:

I know this is a really old thread but...
Does anyone know if this will work on a MY12 2.2 litre 110?
Thanks,
Bavo.

Nope. It won't :(

Resurrecting this old thread. I just ordered 4 ECU pins with wire from Futuranet and have to find a suitable switch setup. Will check out Jaycar. Total should be less that $40 for a working cruise control I hope.

BTW, anyone needing new door switches: Jaycar has them for $7.50 a set of two.

hi.
I am installing cruise control in my Defender td5 from 2002.
And I can't get it to work.
I have ECU NNN000120 in my car.
and from what I understand after reading here I have to program (update) the ECU to get the cruise control working.
It now doesn't respond after installing the connectors and cables.
How do I update it?
does it have to be done at an authorized Landrover workshop?
or can engine optimizers do it?
best regards Roger

(a) Flash upgradeable
(b) Suited to Cruise Control

Defenders had

NNN000120
NNN500020

The ECU programming doesn't need updating for it to work, but the switches and wiring need to be installed correctly.

Do you mean the CC doesn't respond?
Or the ECU itself?

I have the LR unit. You don't have to touch the ecu, just make sure you get the right wires. I think mine is the later ECU though.

Tip is they are great but not super great if you know what I mean. I'm glad I've got it but in hilly terrain it's probably better to drive manually.
