Just changed my cluster to VS Series 2 Statesman.

Just question, I know VR series have Cruise Control control by BCM but VS control by relay? My cruise control didn't work at all. But other light is work as normal.

If it actually need relay like VS cluster need they to switch on/off?

Also would anyone tell me what is this cruise control box do? On VR-VS - Commodore Holden VR VS Aftermarket cruise control module "autoron electronics" | eBay

My cruise control stopped working one day. 5months later I realised that one of my stop light bulbs were blown. I replaced the bulb, Cruise control started working perfectly again.

I would check all your stoplight bulbs are good and working correctly before you do anything else.

Few months ago, My tail light have problem with brake light, For example, Left light is clear brake but right light is low and my friend just fix the black cover thing and use solder to heat up would it effect the cruise control?

EDIT: Here picture of black which hold the bulb on it, that have problem which make bulb not light up or incorrect, so solder and heat it up with silver connect thing, http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/321093247676?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

I do not really understand what your mate did there, but imagine that it could effect the system if not fixed correctly. Was your cruise control working properly before you switched over your cluster?

All I know is that if the brake light circuit is activated, then cruise control will disengage. Whether it is activated by the brake light switch by the pedal, or a fault in the circuit.
You will turn Cruise "on" but not be able to "set"

Hmm, sorry for confusing, My mate fix and now all tail light is work right and night mode too. My cruise control won't turn on unless it will come on when it want to. Anytime when it want to. When CRS finally get on at Cluster then I can able to use cruise control and work very well. Problem is, I don't understand why CRS just won't turn on all the time with switch unless it come on itself without touch stalk switch at all, it does this when driving.

New cluster in, Driving today, CRS didn't come on at all. Old cluster have problem too, Any idea? I know it sounds strange problem to not get CRS come on cluster from stalk switch (New stalk replace 3 times).

Could be an issue with the main module in the engine bay? I'm just guessing though

I just noticed my old module engine have PF name on it, New one from wrecker, I think RJ module name, So do I need to buy same PF type module engine bay?

It might be worth making some phone calls to some experts to check. Good Luck.

Hey everyone, Got question for you all, I wonder is VS Cluster cruise control still same switch on/off to BCM just like VR series? Because CRS not coming on at all on new cluster, I'm just wonder would it cluster or because VS use different way setup for cruise control?

All brake light is work fine and plate number light too, and parker/headlight, what could other problem? BCM?? Cheers
