Cruise control wiring loom

Featured Replies

I bought a cruise control kit last year and never got round to fitting it. 05 mk1 fabia vrs. After doing some light research on fitting it i noticed that the wiring loom I was sent is different to that of any diagrams i can find. Could anyone shed some light on this please?

first photo is the loom i have, 2nd is the only diagram i can find online. 
cheers

There is a member on here called @Tech1e who is an ex-Skoda tech & is an expert on cruise control malarkey.

The diagram looks fine for that wiring kit to me.

The reason i was unsure is the fact that there are 3 wires coming off the loom in the diagram that he 3rd being the connector for the brake pedal, and only two wires coming off the loom that i have.
It threw me off as i have seen other looms with that connector attatched aswell as several other wires.

 

are you able to explain how you would wire this up please? I have seen that you offer this install on facebook so appreciate if you may not want to give me the details etc. I did consider coming to you to get this fitted but i think im 3-4 hours away from you and i dont currently have the time to travel down so hoping just to try and get it sorted myself if possible.

cheers

The brake pedal wire is just a 12v ignition feed.

So am I right in saying that this wire could also just be routed to the fusebox and not have to bother at all with the brake switch? And then the other wire with the male end goes directly to the ecu?

Any ignition live is fine for the brake switch wire.

Yes, it could go to te fusebox, but I found it easier just to splice it into the appropriate wire at the brake switch connector.

The other wire can go direct to the correct engine ECU pin, but won't be long enough as supplied, cos it'll only be intended to reach to the inside bulkhead connector. Nothing to stop you extending it though.

Okay, thanks very much
