My Cruise Control Switch Erupted

And now the cruise control does not work. I have the spring and the little metal piece to make the connection for the switch, but thus far have been unable to figure it out.

 

Thanks for the fucking help.

 

Hey hey hey no reason to get mad.... I would check the connections all the way down to the throttle and see wherever there looks like there is a problem and fix it there.
Hope this helps.

 

lol, maybe a little more info/details would help...



order a new one.

 

Kinda need a little more info, bud.

 

I'm not even sure how to put the switch back together, and since that it is broken, I am going to say that is the problem.

 

things get buried here fast, help us figure out this clusterfuck, we need more info.

what exactly happend?

U make it (sound) like shit blew up

 

What is the problem? If you do not give us enough information on the problem how can we help you? Better yet why not post some pictures of what you are talking about.

 

get a new one. $40. guaranteed to probably not "erupt"

thank you, much better

 

It seems salvageable, I just don't know how to put it back together. Or if there are any pieces missing.

 

wish I had mine apart before....doesnt look too bad honestly.

does the plastic housing still snap together atleast?

 

Yeah, there is no damage that I have seen. Some how the on/off button was dislodged and it stopped working.

 

I dont mean to sound like a dick, but it looks self explanitory aside from which way to flip that copper contact.

wish I could see the other side

 

Exact same thing happened to mine. I've just been too lazy to take a close look at it. Of course I rerely have the opportunity to use the damn thing around here anyway.

OP, if you do figure a way to fix it rather tha buying a new one, please keep us posted. Then maybe I'll get my lazy ass up to fix mine.

 

You do sound like a dick. And you're not very helpful.

 

well I was about to throw shoes on and go out to the garage and risk my cruise control.

not so much motivation now, I hope u get the thing fixed tho, and thank you for your service

From what it sounds like there might be a connection problem right in the on off swich. (I dont have cruise control myself Heavy throttle here I come ) but just tighten the connections right at the on off swich and replace the things you said you would.
Hope this helps

And about the putting it back together. There should be little plastic pushy things that when you push the two sides together there will be a snap and it closes. and if that does not work clear tape would work fine
