Did you know some old cars you can just add cruise control to? I didn't find out till I added it to this 2009-2013 Corolla

Same thing with our 2002 gmc sierra. Didn’t have cruise control then 10 years later I had the same idea and it worked!

[@c_wonder]

I don’t even own a Corolla but your positive energy made me stay for the whole video

[@AlphaShark]

Aw thanks C!

[@thirdthird8504]

Same here 😂

arsh but handy

[@jz1224]

I listened to the life story, but your effort is also appreciated.

[@aricroy4258]

​@@jz1224 you wasted 3 minutes and 40 seconds

[@ErikJenks]

These are the kind of mods that are satisfying, cheap, and truly clever. Love it. That's a major game changer for $15!

[@tofuboy7478]

This worked perfectly thanks. Found the part at tye junk yard for 20 bucks.

[@pregorygeck6605]

I've just done this to our 2011 Toyota Verso. £20 and around 30 minutes job later, it's all working as intended. I have no idea why they didn't do this at the factory if all wires and ecu work been done.

Hi, I have installed cruise control in my 2010 Toyota Corolla CE. The button works and the cruise indicator shows on the dashboard, but when I tried it on the highway at 100 km/h, the car slows down when I remove my foot from the accelerator, even though the dashboard still shows "cruise." How can I fix this issue? Thanks in advance

[@AlphaShark]

Where did you get the button from?

[@udayreddy1230]

@AlphaShark from Amazon. Realized that my car vin starts with 2T1 so i think i need to give a wire connect from ecu is this the only way or do i have any alternative? Please confirm. Thanks

[@SeppoVarkoi-qt5kk]

I recommend to wait 30 minutes after taking negative ground off battery

[@matejaem]

I wonder if it’s the same for the 2nd gen Aygo

[@MrBobsson98]

Did the same thing on my 06 Tundra Base. Total cost from salvage was less than $10!! Also added an intermittent wiper control. Super easy!! 👍

[@BornAgain777-m5t]

Wow! Thanks Brother! Who knew 😮

[@zzzhz-pk2fo]

Hey dude, great video. I have a 2016 corolla (JDM model) that looks "more modern" than yours however on startup when all lights in the dash are lit I do not see a cruise control symbol (but so is yours). So is there a way to know whether my car has the cruise control function built in? is opening up the steering wheel and looking for that spare connector the only way to do determine?

[@AlphaShark]

I have to imagine a 16’ has it built in, but as far as I know opening the wheel is the only way. I know there are some other tutorials on newer Corollas on KZbin, maybe those videos speak into it?

[@jakubwasilewski9708]

I’ve got a European ‘07 RAV4 manual, anybody know if this will work on a manual car?

[@alexbekalo9010]

It works bro, I have manual toyota land cruiser

[@flessuh]

Did the same to my Avensis. Kinda wondering what fits on the other side of the wheel though.

[@BrainWavesVillain]

Video is a gem. Thanks man.

[@luiseduardofalasqui6857]

Your video helped me to fix the cruise control of my corolla. Thank You! Happy new year!

[@ActuallyNickV]

the way my heart sunk when i saw this, was incredibly excited to try it, and realized my 2002 corolla was too old to have cruise control even as an option on the wheel lmao

[@AlphaShark]

2002 DID have an option for cruise control, so it very well may work.

[@ActuallyNickV]

@@AlphaShark :O how can you tell? My Corolla is a super basic CE, no rpm meter, no cd player, and when I look at the wheel there's no panel to remove to install the cruise control. I'd have to rip a new wheel cover from the junkyard or cut the hole myself

[@eclapsed]

The cruise on my ae86 (1986) is on the bottom left of the dash, not on the steering wheel.

[@rookiboi26]

Will this work on my Corolla LE 2010

[@AlphaShark]

It absolutely should

[@joepollard3228]

Bought a new one from Amazon for 20 bucks including shipping.

[@bullelephant1]

Kudos for the video and setting me on the right course to adding cruise control very economically to my 2010 Toyota Corolla base model. Two feedback recommendations: 1) You harvested your switch component from a salvage vehicle. As an alternative, for basically the same price, I was able to purchase a new switch online. 2) A critical element in my application was removing the electrode pin from the original connector which was underneath the air bag providing the horn function. It had to be inserted in the empty port of the connector of the new cruise switch. By doing do, you keep your horn while adding cruise. Here was the helpful video that made me aware of the issue and the way to fix it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJ6lZJ6LZtp4i5I Again, thank you for posting your video.

[@jasonsensation14U]

Amazing! I liked how you said "All snuggley" Your super cute🤩

[@christianvh6655]

I've got a 2010 toyota Corolla s version that comes with the switch but has never worked for me. I wonder if i just gotta plug in the cables or something. Lmk if anyone knows anything.

[@codenametremor]

Did the same on my Fiat Linea using the same cruise control stalk, works for most Alfa Romeo/Fiat/Jeep/ dodge models post Stellantis.

[@pno]

highly depends on the car though especially with some older cars you gotta take apart half the dash lmao but overall most cars come with all the options just a lot of them are not plugged in if not spec'd haha

[@MrAchilles113]

great job! Weirdly, none of the cruise control switch kits come with that required 2-to-1 horn/cuise wire! :( .

[@bjthedjdutchdude1992]

Ok. I'll look for my fiat panda. I want to take it for a 18 hour road trip and a 44 hour road trip.

[@Forklore21]

is it available for 2015 mazda 3?

[@tsemingwong823]

I just added the cruise control stalk into my 2018 Hiace van but not working, seems not prewired the system.

[@AlphaShark]

Oh yeah we don’t have those in the U.S. I can’t speak to foreign markets. Is there a plug behind the steering wheel?

[@brianjofre9857]

Hello, do you know if the Toyota avensis 2.0 vvt-i 2005 is compatible? (5 speed manual)

[@AlphaShark]

Not a clue, but I'd have to imagine IF cruise is an option on higher trims, it most likely will work.

[@deepakthomson5245]

Hi bro can I add on Fortuner second generation base 2014

[@generalcaeser9176]

I have a huge challenge for anyone interested! I want cruise on my 1998 Toyota Land Cruiser Prodo and I can't find a thing in all my searching. Anyone know?

[@Nonexistanthuman]

I recently did this for a 1998 rav4 that had a broken cruise control. You should be able to do it, seems like Toyota back then wanted to make things easier on the customers

[@hakube34]

doesn't cruise control use a sensor to determine the speed of the vehicle in front? Or is the sensor built-in to this base model Corolla?

[@AlphaShark]

All the features are built in, there is no front sensor on older cars. The sensor on newer cars is for radar guided cruise control that automatically slows down for cars in front.

[@stevebubar6129]

Fascinating and awesome video! I have a base dodge dart 2013. U gave me hope

Huh?

[@mankomal1664]

From where i can buy it?

[@stepfour]

So the vehicle had the Cruz control indicator light built in.... just not utilized?

[@AlphaShark]

Yes sir!

[@delz3501]

thanks, gotta give this a shot with my 07 corolla LE

[@John-bd4xd]

Does anyone know the part number for this specific wire that plugs into the cruise control lever and the horn? I found the cruise control assembly but not the wire.

[@AlphaShark]

I’m sorry, I do not! Before I found this, I googled it, and I think it just popped up somewhere in the results.

[@nesdi6653]

How about adaptive cruise The prius V has like radar

[@AlphaShark]

If it doesn't have the camera behind the rearview mirror on the windshield then no.

[@hjtmsgah4743]

What about cable throttle, not electronic models?

[@uio86a]

Can I install a smart cruise in an old car? 2003 Santa Fe

[@AlphaShark]

Find out if the '03 had an option for cruise on higher trims. If it did, there's a good chance the plug is there.

[@basilkalapura]

Does dis only work on automatics ?

[@AlphaShark]

I couldn't say

[@colmanbyrne-mc1mm]

Does anyone know if this works on Hiace van?

[@AlphaShark]

You’re the second to ask that, I do not know since it is not available in the U.S. market, the easiest way to tell would be able to take the front part of the steer cap off like I instruct in the video and see if you Hi-Ace has the plug.
