DIY: install factory cruise control in a non cruise equiped car, everything u need to know! lots of pics Options

[Ryouxrs]

well i finally got it done, what is needed for this project are these parts. cruise contol actuator(under hood, and behind gas pedal) wiring harness, brake pedal switch, cruise control computer (CCM), cruise control steering wheel switch and switch cover, SRS clock ring (located behind steering wheel), combination meter with cruise light bulb ( or make your own like i did) well thats all the parts, its not a very expensive job, i maybe spent 75 dollars total on this swap. but it is VERY time consuming. lots of fun stuff to wire in, well here goes nothing... first off install all the little bits and pieces of the system, dnt worry about the wiring just yet. get all the hard part mounted up. once thats all done the fun begins, start by removing the lower drivers dash, glove box, center consoule, water fall trim, and the instrument cluster. (remove the steering wheel if you havnt already installed your new clock ring and cruise switch. the removal and instalation is pretty straight forweard for those parts. all u will need is a short and standard length philips screw driver, and a 10 & 12 mm socket and ratchet. first part of the wiring is the actuator in the engine bay, the wires run under the rad. support to the drivers side inner fender, then into the grommet on the firewall inside the drivers fender, the next step is to drill the mounting holes for the gas pedal actuator, using a 9/32 drill bit, dril the 2 mounting holes in the center of the tar paper punch outs. MAKE SURE TO DRILL SHALLOW!!! one of the mounting holes goes right behind your brake proportioning valve. then using the origional bolts, mount the actuator. then your off to that crazy looking wiring harness. all of the wiring notes, and locations are listed in the pictures below, as well as the toyota diagram for the cruise system. enjoy, and happy cruisin!

Lol, its been almost 2 years now and I just finaly got clutch sensor from toyota previa, so im back in the game Also i bought 6gc steering wheel switch and now i have both, 6gc and 7gc. Meanwhile I abandonet cruise control project due to damage of speed sensor in gearbox. Plug got rust and stopped working so it took me like only 5 months to fix this Today I installed clucth sensor and I extended wires from actuator.

Ryouxrs i hope You'r still there. I have a question about clutch connection. One cable from clutch sensor goes to pin 2 in CCM 9BLK/RED), and second cable goes to Gauge Fuse 10A? Where is this fuse? I dont see anything about this fuse connection in Your first post. Is this because You got power from cig lighter? I have heated seats connected to cig lighter so im woried this can be too much for one fuse?
Also i see that clutch plug has 1 and 2 wires description. Does it matter which one goes to CCM ?
