My cruise control works maybe 1/3 of the times I try to use it, is/are there any electrical connections which I should attend to or is this an indication of the central unit being bad, any ideas? When it chooses to work it works fine with resume and acceleration working too.

1. Work the connector on and off several (>20) times to burnish the surfaces of the conductors.
2. Check the internal solder connections... work the board over carefully with an electronics-grade soldering iron. Apparently the solder joints "loosen up" over time and a simple re-soldering brings some of these units back to life.

for Lauri with finnish:
Lauri,
tsekkaa cruise mötikän vieressä oleva liitin.Siinä on joskus häikkää.Toinen mahdollisuus on cruisen "tietokoneboxin" liitin; löytyy apumiehen jalkatilassa olevan kovalevyn takaa, sama paikka jossa on myös DME & KLR boxit.Nämä liittimet ovat tod.näk. syy ongelmaasi.
