why is it not working. switch lights up but nowt else!!!

[karlo]

Common problem is the ends on the rubber tubes split you need to trace the pipes and trim them back a bit, if you do a search there is a few threads already on this problem.

HTH  :)

it,ll be the vacuum pipes used for the cruise control ,they are crap i,ve given up with mine and got fed up with replacing them

[karlo]

I wonder if silicone tubing would stand up?

[waveydavey]

Doesn't that depend on the model? I thought the TD5 was 'fly by wire' with the cruise control just operating on the Engine ECM?

This this help? It's the operating instructions from the owners handbook.

Start using it and you will wonder how you lived without it for so long!
Cruise Control
107
To operate
1. Press the master switch (the switch
indicator light illuminates whenever the
switch is pressed to the ‘on’ position).
2. Accelerate until the desired cruising speed
is reached. This must be above the
system's operational minimum speed of
28 mph (45 km/h).
3. Press the ‘SET +’ switch to set the vehicle
speed in the system's memory. Cruise
control will now maintain that road speed
without the need for operation of the
accelerator pedal.
With cruise control operating, speed can be
increased for periods of up to 30 seconds, by
normal use of the accelerator e.g. for
overtaking. When the accelerator is released,
road speed will return to the selected cruising
speed.
NOTE: If the 30 second period is exceeded,
cruise control will automatically disengage.
Press the 'RES' switch to re-engage.
To reduce the cruising speed:
Press the ‘RES’ switch to slow the vehicle, until
the required speed has been reached. Then
press the ‘SET +’ switch to establish the new
cruising speed (remember that cruise control
will not operate at speeds below 28 mph (45
km/h).
To increase the set cruising speed:
Press and hold the ‘SET +’ switch - the vehicle
will accelerate automatically. Release the
switch as soon as the desired speed has been
reached.
Alternatively, the set speed can be increased
incrementally by ‘tapping’ the ‘SET +’ switch.
Each press of the switch will increase the speed
by 1 mph (1.5 km/h approx).
Disengaging cruise control
On manual gearbox vehicles, the cruise control
will automatically disengage if the brake or
clutch pedals are pressed. On automatic
gearbox vehicles, cruise control will disengage
when the gear selector is moved into neutral, or
when the brake pedal is pressed. Cruise control
can also be disengaged by pressing the ‘RES’
switch.
To re-engage cruise control at the previously
set speed, press the ‘RES’ switch.
NOTE: The speed held in the cruise control
memory will be cancelled when either the
cruise control master switch or the starter
switch is turned off.

Mine just stops working for no apparent reason, it's a lottery :roll:

I think there must be a wiring fault as sometimnes it will drop out of cruise but if you tap reset it goes back up to whatever speed you had set.

replaced the tubes but still wont work

Hello again

I also had a problem on mine that the switchon the brake pedal wasn't working correctly, they later cars didn't have an adjustable one it simply clipped in and guess what, the clip wasn't working :roll:

Also check the vac belows isn't holed or split.

[The Winfrows]

thanks range rover blues shall look at that tomorrow.
