cruise control not working - 93 lumina 3.4
 
cruise does not work at all...

with my multimeter i have tested the switch and the wiring down at where it plugs into the servo.. works perfect...

figuring it would be the servo, i picked up a used one ($20) today..

still doesnt work...

what else do i need to test?

Did u check vacuum lines?

harofreak00 03-15-2007 09:07 PM

they are both there.. connected.. what could be wrong with them

bandit 03-15-2007 09:17 PM

old, Rotten, Dry... Crack in them.... something... :?

harofreak00 03-15-2007 09:21 PM

they arent new looking by all means.. but they will hold air.. no doubt..

there is a big and a small.. should i be able to feel a vacuum or pressure at idle with my finger?

Does it have a brake cut-off switch? I assume it does and worth making sure its working right. This would sense brake fluid pressure and turn off cruise when you step on the brakes.

This is the same problem I'm having with MINE. If you find out let me know exactly what you did. I have replaced the servo with a new one...replaced the module...replaced the switch, checked the fuse, and the vacuum lines hold air just fine.

Andrew, if you're talking about the two vacuum lines connected to the servo, the big one is the break cutoff switch and the little one is the actual vacuum line that goes to the vac canister. You will only hear a hiss from the small one.

About the only thing I've seen that could be wrong here is the wires in the steering column...those are the only wires that really could be disconnected or something.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO.... it worked temperamental!!!

i was out doing errands driving at 60mph.. then all of a sudden the gas kicks down and im going 70.. i never touched the switch... i hit the brake and it went off .. then i tested it again and it worked.. so i thought i was golden...

then driving home it wouldnt work :?

Something is intermittent. Anything else electrical acting alright? I'd check the grounds it runs of off, and other wiring, especially in the firewall entry point.

TrueWildMan 03-16-2007 02:30 AM

Does it have a fuse? Did you check that?

harofreak00 03-16-2007 09:17 AM

worked for a while on the way to work today... i was going 65mph via the cruise and i wanted to go 70.. the ACC button wouldnt work... when i shut it off it wouldnt work at all anymore

all fuses are fine

bandit 03-16-2007 09:22 AM

no... just my A-B pin connector

banned3800 03-16-2007 09:53 AM

So no codes at all from the ECM?

Sometime you could get a Vent solenoid codes if you have a Vac line that may be collapsing or getting sucked down... and that could cause some issues with the system... Its a strange system... Its electronically controlled but vacume actuated ... :lol:

you could be shorting out somewhere in the column or the switch is self is toast I thought I had one but i was wrong.

This is what I'm thinking as well. The intermittency sounds electrical.
