2. Attach the Bead CbaiD to the Two Bead
Connector; Secure beadS by folding down
the metal tabs. The following parts will be
used when installed properly:
Two Bead ConDector, Bead Cb~D,
Bead CbaiD CoDnector, and Bead
CbaiD CoDDector Cover. (Figure 16)

3. Remove clip or pin which retains throttle cable
(and washer if provided) and install Two Bead
Connector on the same side of throttle cable as
the Cable Assembly will be anchored. This is
necessary so that Cable Asaeinbly and throttle
cable will not cross.

4. The Two Bead may need to be bent so that it
clears the throttle cable. (Figure 17) Also, the
4" Tie Strap can be used to hold the Two
Bead Connector to the sleeve of the throttle
cable. (Figure 17)

NOTE: After the Cable Assembly has been
Attached, manually move the throttle to assure
the Cable Assembly does not hang up on any
part of the vehi~le.

I. Some OM, Ford. and Cbrysler vehicles

have an attachment stud qn ~e throttle pulley .

2. Slide a Bead Chain Connector Cover over
the cruise cable, then attach the Bead Chain
Connector to the cable. Attac~ the Throttle
Clip with Cable to the Bead Chain Connector
And slide the Connector Cover over the Bead

Chain Connector. (Figure 18)

3. Slide the Throttle Clip over the throttle pulley
attachment stud. Push Throttle Clip onto the stud

~nchoring Cable Assembly I

There are three (3) types of connectors used to anchor

the Cable Assembly:
A. Snap-ln Adapter
B. General Motors Blank Anchor
C. Threaded Tube Clamp

A. Snap-ln Adapter

I. To use the Snap-ln Adapter, it will

be necessary to fonn threads on the end of
the Cable Assembly. This is easily

accomplished by placing the 114" -10 Nut on
the end of the Cable Assembly with your

fingers. Then use a 7116" box end wrench and
turn clockwise until the desired amount of
threads have been Conned. (Figure 19)

2. After the threads have been formed, screw the
Snap-ln Adapter on to the Cable Assembly.
(Figure 20)

NOTE: Cable Assembly must extend past the
end of the Snap-In Adapter on all applications.

3. The Snap-ln Adapter snaps into the square
hole of the Enension Bracket (Figure 11)

or snaps into an existing square hole on the

vehicle -common on GM vehicles.

1. To locate the blank anchor on General Motors
vehicl~, jljs necessary to remove the air
cleaner. The blank anchor is located above
the throttle anchor .

2. This anchor is hollow except at one end. Use
a 114" bit and drill as shown in Figure 23.

3. Before using the 114"-20 Nut, remove the
Adjustable Sleeve from the Cable A3sembly.
Then use the 114"-20 Nut to fonD threads
on the end of the Cable Assembly. This is easily
accomplished by first placing the 114" -20

Nut on the end of the Cable Assembly with

your fingers and then use a 7116" box end
wrench and tucfn clockwise until the desired ,

amount of threads have been formed.

(Figure 19, pa&e 14)

4. Insert the Cable Assembly through the blank

anchor and thread the other 114" -20 Nut in
place. (Figure 2.4)

~arness Assembly I

Push Rubber Cover Grommet securely into place on
the cover of the Actuator Assembly. (Figure 30)

Straighten the Harness Assembly and find the 4 pin
mating connectors. Separate the 4 pin connectors. A
small screw driver may be needed.

Bamess Assembly needs a 314" hole to pass through
bulkhead. You may find one nearby such as the
speedometer cable hole or a small one you can file
larger. If you find the right size hole in the right
place, remove ru~r grommet. If not, drill, saw, or
punch a 314" hole in bulkhead. A hole a couple of
inches to the left or: slightly higher than the steering
column is usually a ~00d place. (FiEUre 31)

OTE: Check inside before drilling, sawing, or

linEso you don't dama!e anything.

From engine side, pass four pin connector and
VIOLET wire through hole. If you did not hook up
the BLUE TACH wire and GRAY VSS wire under
the hOOd, pass them through to the inside also.

Reattach 4 pin mating connectors and make
necessary wire connections. (See page 18)

If your Cruise Control switch is the type which clamps on the turn signal lever, req~ cutting the turn signalJever, or is
mounted on the instrument panel, follow instructions pack~~with it If you have a switch which replaces the cpntplete original
equipment turn signal lever, remove the existing lever and install the Cruise Control switch and lever assembly as instructed in
the vehicle shop servire manual.

I WIRING A Tf ACHMENTS TO VEH "~ ' ' c";

To find a place to get electrical power you will need to "ground" one lead of your test light or volt-ohm -.Find el~cal

ground by turning on the ignition switch and touching one lead to a 11« fused tenninal at fuse pan~l; toucbc~r lead to

unpainted metal part of vehicle. The metal you touch, if it makes (X)ntinuity , is ~d. Bracket for parking brake lever is usually
a good ground. Turn ignition switch off.

NOTE: Some fuse panels are behind shields which must be removed first. On other vehicles the screw that mounts the panel
must be removed to get to the fuses.
