Hi all!

Got my complete cruise control package today. Has anyone done this project before? I would like to have some help/tips, before I start the project. I looked my beast a bit and found almost all the wires for the cruise control. Just wondering where is the place for the switch for brake?

well going to start my pluck & pray soon :hihi:

regards,

Leba

Hi Leba,
Last issue of Total BMW Magazine has fully illustrated instructions on retro-fitting Cruise Control to E34.
Hope this helps!

[Leba]

Cruise fitted and working, it wasn't hard at all.. piece of cake

Now I'm thinking of retrofitting front seats with electrical adjustments :byee55amg

Is it applicable to the V8's also? I've heard stories about some not being pre-wired......

Yeah I have that Issue also!!

Digging up the old...

Where did you mount the motor in the engine bay Leba??

 

[BURTON]

Can't do it. Unless someone knows where the blue plug is.

I've heard something about "lying loose behind the LHS headlight???"

 

[BURTON]

Is that the ECU one? As i know the other one does!!

The place is behind drivers lights, next to the airfilter box. Hope this helps, If you can't find it, I can get a picture from it.

The blue plug is behind the drivers kick panel (in LHD).

Look like you had best send some pics.. hehe

That doesn't help i don't have the blue plug in the ECU bit.

 

[vchachanidze]

That's no good. No blue plug = no crusie cotrol retro-fit.

 

[BURTON]

BUt look slike4 Leda is saying its in a different place on LHD cars..

 

[BURTON]

i have the blue plug behind the foot rest, Yes mine is a LHD example. But the plug seems to be different in that its slighly too big.. Should I sell this and get a LHD cruise... as it appears I have everything for the cruise control to fit..
