Cruise Control

[Lowrange2]

I recently purchased my 93 XJ Country... It seems to have most of the options including Cruise Control... I dont know how to work the controls on the staulk...and even if i did im pretty sure it doesn't work... Any ideas? Thanks Andy

i have a 96 contry and my cruise control is on the steering wheel but if it doesnt work check the vac lines - i had 1 come apart a fill up with dirt

I noticed that my heater wouldnt change...from defrost. I found a vaccum line going to nothing under the hood so i plugged it... The heat works and cruise still doesnt... i looked for a while and couldnt find where the spare line went... once again i know nothing about the cruise set up... the electrical part of the system doesnt seem to cut on either... on the staulk there is a button on the end, and a small switch that has an on and off possition and also slides toward the colum... which i assume is Accel. I dont know! HELP! Thanks for the advise Demiv

on mine there was a "t" behind/under the battery tray that broke and sucked dirt i followed the line to the other side near the intake where i found the clog

[demiv]

if i remember right it was the line that went to the canister in the front bumper im not sure though

Thanks Ill try that... i still dont have any lights on the dash when i play with the buttons... is there a fuse i should check?

[demiv]

idk i do have lights on the wheel

When going faster than 35mph flip the switch to on. Then push the button on the end to set the speed. That's how mine works. Good luck!

So if i flip the switch towards the steering wheel that turns it on? DOes a light come on?

[Lowrange2]

My cruise is still broke!?!?! How about a fuse?!

So if i flip the switch towards the steering wheel that turns it on? DOes a light come on? Yep, that should turn it on. No light comes on. Could be a fuse. Could be the vacuum diaphram is shot.

[Lowrange2]

the heat changes vents fine... does that mean the vaccum diaphram is ok?

thanks for the tip on the vacuum tube guys - i had exactly the same fault on my 2000XJ with the heater that wouldn't change from defrost. I found that a vacuum tube on the inlet manifold had come off. I simply pressed it back in and the problem with the heater is solved. I can't wait to get out on the road to see if my cruise control once again is also working!
