Section I – Installation Procedure

A. Pre-Installation Suggestions

1. It is advisable to disconnect the negative

battery cable for 3 minutes before beginning
installation, to avoid unintended air bag
deployment. Note and record any anti-theft
radio codes prior to disconnecting. Figure 1

2. Remove the driver side lower dash and kick

panels. Remove the steering wheel shroud.

Figure 2

B. Install Electronic Module

1. Plug in the Main Wiring Harness, Switch

Harness, and Pedal Interface Harness onto
mating connectors of the Cruise Control
Module. Figure 3

Figure 1

2. Place the Cruise Control Module in a secure

location behind the driver side dash area near
the firewall away from moving parts and
secure with zip ties.

3. Route the Pedal Interface Harness through

steering column and down to the accelerator.

C. Install Pedal Interface Harness

1. Use the diagram and chart below to install the

pedal interface harness. Disconnect the Pedal
Interface Harness at the 2-pin connectors to
ease installation of solder connections. Cut
the selected wires at the accelerator harness
leaving at least 2 inches of harness from the
connector. Solder the wire ends from the
pedal interface harness to the accelerator pedal
harness according to each wire color listed in
chart. After soldering, wrap the exposed

wires with electrical tape. Figure 4.

WARNING: PROCEED WITH CAUTION TO BE
SURE PEDAL IN TERF ACE HAR NESS IS MATE D
PROPERLY TO THE ACCELERATOR HARNESS.
FAILURE TO DO THIS CORRECTLY WILL
DISABLE THE ACCELERATOR.

2. Check for good solder connection:

Before continuing cruise installation, plug the
2-pin mating connectors in to each other as
shown in Figure 5. Reconnect negative side
of battery. Start engine and depress
accelerator to confirm operation. Turn off
engine and disconnect battery.

a. If a DTC code appears, restart Section C

and ensure proper wire matching and good
Posi-tap connections.

3. Unplug the 2-pin mating connectors from each

other (connected together in the last step) and
re-connect to the 2-pin mating connectors of

Pedal Interface Harness. Use electrical tape
supplied in kit to wrap all connections.

compartment between motor and firewall.
Figure 8. For reference, find the black medal
bracket in front of the gray and blue
connectors. Figure 9. Locate the gray 2-pin
connector on the transmission below the
bracket. Figure 10. Connect the Violet Wire
from the cruise harness to Green/White or
White/Blue Wire (VSS) in Pin 2 of the
connector. Be sure all of connections are tight
so that they seal properly. Figure 11

F. Install Control Switch

1. Use the lever wedges on the Control Switch

at an angle template to drill a 3/8” or 9.5mm
hole in the lower shroud of the steering
column cover. Position lock-washers as
shown. Figure 12

2. Apply nut and position Control Switch for

driver’s best view.

3. Assemble (2) 3-pin connectors from the sack

parts to the mating wire colors on the Control

Switch Harness. Use the diagram to mate the
module harness to switch harness. Figure
13

4. Route the assembled Control Switch

Harness to the mating connector of the Cruise

Control module.

5. Secure the Control Switch harness with zip

ties away from moving parts.

G. Testing

1. Reconnect negative battery cable and torque

to 35 in*lbs. Reenter anti-theft radio codes.

2. Turn ignition on. Apply the on/off button of

Cruise Control Switch.
