wspinks Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I put on a K&N CAI last week, and everything seemed to be great until this weekend. I was driving back from the mountians when I realized my cruise wouldn't set. The cruise light comes on, but the set light wont, and it doesn't work. I checked to make sure that I had everything hooked up correctly, and I do, but it still doesn't work. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asrautox Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 you rechecked all connections? sounds like the TPS didn't get plugged back in or something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OR99.5Speed Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I'm sure there's a cruise control cable that you didn't rehook. Sounds obvious, but check for tight connections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Check the vaccuum line for the CC diaphragm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wspinks Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 I have checked all the connections, I even went back and walked through the installation step by step. There are only three lines to check, and all of them are tight. I checked all vacuum hoses for connection and cracks, I am at a loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max_stryker Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 dont wanna sound dumb - which i am - but does the speedo work and function properly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wspinks Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 yep, everything except the CC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max_stryker Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 sounds like you did the install yourself - got a write up on how you did it? maybe we can help you figure somethin out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wspinks Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 Here are the instructions I used, and yes I followed them very close. The only thing I was not able to do was use a spacer when attaching the saddle bracket, the screw provided was not long enough. I can't imagine it would cause this kind of trouble.

vengeful Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 The cruise control is regulated by that small vac line that runs to the air-box. If that is leaking, or not connected properly, then it wont work. Check to make sure there aren't any leaks in the lines themselves. Otherwise, does the truck exhibit any of the common symptoms of a vac. leak? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmorgan4 Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Whitney, Welcome to the forum. Unfortunatly I can't offer any advice on this problem. Which spacer in the K&N diagram did you leave out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wspinks Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 No, everything except for the cruise seems to be fine. The spacer I left out was the one between the valve cover and the new saddle bracket. Thanks for all the input, but I don't know what else to try. I may have to bring it to a shop.

88pathoffroad Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 You've followed the CC vaccuum line from the diaphragm to it's connecting point, then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NismoSkyZ Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 Sorry to interupt, but will this fit on the 96-99.5 r50's? It looks like it might and Im getting tired of my homemade filter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herm Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 There may be no connection to the KN filter - it could be coincidence. My cruise has been dead for years. Dealer tried three diagnoses after local mechanics couldn't figure it out, I replaced several parts the dealer identified as bad (I bought them at salvage) but it remains dead... current best-guess is a bad wire in the steering column harness, which is too much effort. I can live w/o cruise. m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wspinks Posted September 25, 2006 Author Share Posted September 25, 2006 Thanks herm, everything is connected correctly, according to three other people. I can't seem to figure it out, but I can live without CC as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parthy Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 did you check the fuses brake fuse ect -study- if all elese fails put it back the way it was see if it works if it does take it one step at a time fitting the filter to try and see where you went wrong :X hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
