VT commodore v6

[VT&VX]

can mods change the title of this thread from this generic "VT commodore v6"
to something specific to the question.

We added a cruise to the VT, everything plugged in, I don't even remember having an issue like this.

To test the instrument cluster bulbs, hold the "mode" and "^" keys on the trip computer panel.

This opens up all sorts of fun functions. Use the mode button to toggle through to the cluster bulbs test. It will squeal at you and all gauges will go to half. Check for the cruise and active lights. Our VT also had the LPG bulb so you might be able to shuffle a couple of bulbs around to get what you need, or grab two bulb holders from a parts car/cluster. I can't remember what T# bulb holder they are.

As for the clutch switch, my aftermarket cruise kit on my subi references the the brake switch via a momentary switch, once you push the clutch pedal the switch breaks the circuit that the cruise module monitors for a change in voltage. I'm sure the VT system would be the same or very similar. Can you find a VT wiring diagram to confirm?

Cheers

Also, make sure your brake lights are working otherwise the cruise control doesn't turn on.

They also don't like led stop lights.

Yeah need to add resistors if LED's fitted.

Thanks for the link . I have added them to my watch list as I will eventually need some and wasn't sure where to get them. Autoelcau is a great seller bought heaps off him.

I have the cruise light but the active light didn’t turn on, if it is not turning on will I need a new stick

Has the stick been replaced before? If not id say there lies your problem. It's very common for them to fail.
