Cruise control

If you have cruise, the signal and wiper switch will have a longer end on it clearly marked cruise with a switch on it for off-on-r/a.

To set it, get up to speed, turn the switch to on and push in on the end button then let off the gas. The r/a is resume or accelerate and is used to speed up a little or to go back to the last speed the cruise was set at before you had to slow down or touched the brakes to shut off the cruise.

The power and comfort switch changes the way the tranny shifts. Use power and under hard acceleration, the tranny will shift at a higher rpm. It also will downshift faster.

Thanks Mike,

I can't see any print, but there is a left arrow, mid position and a right arrow.

Is left pos.off, mid position On, and right pos. r/a ?

Should I set it in mid.position and then push in the end button ?

Should I push the r/a once to increase the speed with a few km?

Thanks again, reg. Geir

Geir,

If your '88 is like my '87 Laredo, then the turn signal stalk will have a chrome "slider" on it for activating the cruise control functions. What you described above is simply the markings on the non-cruise-control turn signal stalk.

Geir R.Pettersson did pass the time by typing:

| | `-Resume/Accelerate | `----On `-------Off

Put the switch to On and press Set (must be over 48 kph) Release the gas pedal and your vehicle should stay there. To bump it up about 4 kph, press Accelerate To bump it down about 4 kph, press Set

(either accel or decel/set can be held down to make larger changes. In some models presses are cumulative, so pressing accel 2 times would increase your speed by 8 kph)

Turning it off, or pressing the brakes will stop cruise control.

If you have to press the brakes, you can then push the switch to Resume and the vehicle will go back to the preset speed.

In theory yes.

Maybe someone has changed the signal arm with a generic one?

Thanks for all help.

I must have touched some wire or something when I was looking for the emiss maint box to disconnect, cause now the cruise control work, must be the Christmas spirit.

Have a nice Christmas.
