Hi all, I've been on a mission for ages now to try to cure the annoying thing in my '96 JDM BB4 in that the cruise control won't set higher than 62mph.

I assume that if I swap the cruise control module for one from a UK-spec car, then it'd just work.

But I've now tried two modules that I thought were the right ones, and they don't work. The cruise just doesn't set at all.

The latest one I tried - today - came from a '93 UK spec auto (mine is auto too), but no-go.

The car is stock apart from a Spoon-copy ECU chip. And a few other tweaks that wouldn't have affected the electronics.

Any ideas guys? Does anyone have a similar car, auto, 2.2 VTEC etc that DOES set higher than 62? If so maybe you could have a squint and tell me what part number the module is. The last three digits are the pertinent ones I think.

Or, any other ideas?

I am indebted.

Well I have cruise that I am again removing. UK manual. I would suggest checking the obvious that cruise req to set, clutch and brake pedal switches ect.

actually I can only think of one other 4th gen auto on the forum? @Ted

Wont set above 70 mph i think. Its a long time since i set it but i remember it wont set at anything .

I will be completing the install of my cruise control to mine this weekend. It's an ex auto JDM and I'll be using a uk module to remove the limiter. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Great, please do.

A module from a manual car doesn't work in an auto, i know that anyway.

It should work, the pinouts look identical from looking at the manual. Page 23-359 has a lot of test procedures, you might want to run through those to see if you have a problem somewhere.

From my experience, the modules are country specific but not gearbox specific. Swapping a UK one to a JDM car does indeed remove the limiter.

Yes, looking at the wiring diagrams, the CC does not interface with the main ECU at all.

Nice little upgrade you've given yourself there indigo
