How to: Install/Activate Cruise Control

[@Hiccup77]

Hi Mate, after watching ya vid and gettin my astra, i've fitted the CC with NO problem at all, got myself an Op-Com to diagnose any codes I or others have and its already proved an invaluable tool. I've also done the remote windows (already on mine), auto door locks on a friends car and he's chuffed to bits. Keep up the fantastic work friend.

[@alexandernuijten79]

Thanks guys! I followed your steps and it really works perfectly on my 2004 Opel Vectra 1.8. Eeuwige dank van mijnentwege.

[@martinprentice3225]

Perfect guide.. 10 minutes and was all done. Thanks again sir..

[@andywest129]

Many thanks for the great video! I used it to fit cruise control to my Zafira B. Saved me a fortune, thanks.

[@hcashmore11]

Thanks so much for this, had it all done in less than half an hour, this video is awesome, as are you Bluudy :)

[@alanryderb]

very informative video, i have the cruise switch and recently got OPCOM and now I know how to make it all work, Many thanks

[@R1CH130]

Nice video. I’ve actually just used this to help diagnose why my cruise isn’t working. I’ve got a 2009 Twintop Exclusiv Black which came with cruise as standard, but mine hasn’t worked since I bought the car. I checked with the diagnostics and found that the Clutch Switch is permanently reading “Active” on the measuring blocks and pushing the clutch makes no difference. Obviously because the clutch switch is faulty, it’s telling the car the clutch or pressed and hence, the cruise won’t set! I wasn’t sure if it should show active when the clutch is up, then go inactive when pressed, or visa-versa! This confirmed it should be inactive until pressed!

[@dernfi8329]

Hi I'm having this same issue, did you solve it ONLY by replacing the clutch switch?

[@BatteryGeek247]

hi, i have my astra h but i have no cable to the clutch pedal.only for the brake one.can i do it with that switch? thanks

[@aldredbaker7025]

Thanks for the video. Just programmed my Zafira to have cruise control!!

[@amilzekria6635]

Same here but im having an issue, when i push the top button it accelerates and the bottom i dont even know what that does, i cant get it to stay at a set speed

[@Karlett555]

Careful i just noticed few ads on ebay. They are selling the switch for front, rear and fog lights as cruise control! There is an icon for a speedometer on it but that's for illumination control of the dasboard! Amazing...

[@muh1h1]

i didn't even know the Astra H came with Keyless start, thats soo cool! I wish mine would have this :(

[@lukebryant5362]

Yeah mate keyless start and keyless unlock / lock

[@allieandmaria]

Thanks for this, works a dream.

[@Strato811]

Hi Bluudy, thanks for the terrific Video. Do u know where I can get OP-COM and how can I find my car pass (password) for entering into the program configurations? Which cable you connect your laptop with the CarComputer? Is it OBD 2 CAN BUS?

[@amilzekria6635]

Bless big man, quick question. I have not yet haf a chance to zip up motorway yet but when i push the top button the car just starts accelerating and the bottem one does the same thing. Have i done something wrong or is there like a combination you have to push for it to cruise along at a set speed??? Cheers dude

[@NeRoNaSs]

Do you know why my Astra h z16XER 2007 when I enter to body-cim module-programming there is no program variant configuration option? I want to activate cruise control and I can’t

[@BM77736]

Will this work on a 55 plate astra design ? And we're can I get the software from to program the the cruise control ?

[@chauffeurmonkey]

Great tutorial thanks. But why oh why do you find it necessary to put background music on? It's just not needed, especially when concentrating on what you guys are doing.

[@bluudysgarage]

tony murrell hi Tony I appreciate what you are saying. But I get very mixed reviews as some people like it and some dont. So my videos are mixed from having music and not. Lol

[@chauffeurmonkey]

Yes good call, clearly I'm getting old :-) I watched the other one similar without music, more comforting to me ears. Having said all this, whereabouts in the country are you and could you program my Zafira once I have fitted the stalk?

[@bluudysgarage]

tony murrell it's no problem tony. It's really simple to program if you have the switch and the stalk. I'm based near leeds.

[@chauffeurmonkey]

Bluudys Garage Doh! I'm in Lewes on the south coast. Thanks anyway.......

[@bluudysgarage]

tony murrell no problem. Thanks for watching.

[@deanmurphy4360]

Great guide, got mine working on Zaf B. I don't have sports clocks but can see the cc light on my panel. It doesn't come on when my CC is active, does it have to be switched to present for instrument panel, which route pls? Thanks in advance, keep up the good work

[@C0S3NZ4]

Thank you Bluddys Garage, i've follow your video and my cruise is at work! My big problem was install op com on win 10 64 bit, but after two weeks of war i've upload the driver and anything it's all right! ... just for opel's statistics ... my clutch switch was posed ... Zafira B Z19DT - year 2008.

[@bluudysgarage]

Thats great!

[@fluppetz160]

Saved me a Bluudy fortune mate, many thanks

[@zzzTechTips]

Hi, I have a Vauxhall asta mk5 made in 2006. I bought a clutch switch and a cruise control arm. I fit the both device, however i didn't find the clutch switch wire. If there is no wire for the clutch switch, how can i get one to there? is an Opel guy able to wire it? or what should i do in order to get Cruise control? Thanks for your answears

[@0wen1066]

I’ve seen with these before if there is no wire then one needs to be installed all the way up to the ECU. And you need check that your Indicator stalk wiring has the wires for the cruise control too.

[@bluudysgarage]

search around on the internet you can get the opcom and cables all together. the car pass should be with your car service log file. failing that you can contact vauxhall about getting it, but there would be a fee.

[@steevegt]

Hi there Where can I bought an opcom like yours? I bought one from alibaba and it does not work with HSCAN. Only SWCAN. It is not broken, the seller confirmed me that it does not work with HSCAN. I've asked a lot of sellers in alibaba if the opcom that they are selling works with with HSCAN, most does not anwsers back, and some anwsers that all opcoms in china are the same and that it does not work with HSCAN. Yours looks like a china opcom and it works realy well. I have a Astra Z17DTR frm 2008

[@bluudysgarage]

If your Astra fitted with the clutch switch? and does it have a electronic throttle body or a cable? because your going to need the parts off a Cruise control model to make yours work, if you dont have it.

[@133taxi]

Great tutorial but what is the car pass ? Please

[@GavstarLeo]

How would I get cruise control on my 09 design Astra H? Vauxhall would probably charge an arm and a leg

[@JFariaEsp]

hi, very nice video. but something i didn't understand. how can i know if my vectra-c from 2004 can have cruise control before buying all the stuff? thanks

[@andisadler2897]

[@Hiccup77]

Hello Friend. Amazon uk sell the op-com unit for £25 Ebay to get a new stalk. I'm too intrigued to know the car pass. I'm getting a 57 plate Astra cdti sri in april 13 and i'd love to do this mod.

[@zzzTechTips]

Hi, I found the cabel for clutch switch. It's really hide from unathorised persons. I had to take of the full cover under the driving wheel and I found this cable behind the Light switch. This cable was rolled on to an another cable, so it was really hard to find it. but it's there

[@robjw7]

@1.59 is that connected into the AUX connection or something else?

[@szpeniuszek]

Hi mate. Where are you based? Are you able to program cruise control in my Vivaro please

[@AFCUK67]

I've had my sxi 56 plate all fitted and programmes but not working. Apparently I have to put a wire from clutch switch to somewhere. Any idea how to do it.

[@anthonylayton2948]

Awesome video thanks, just waiting for my opcom then i'll try it out. Do you know of anyway to get the needle sweep when you turn on the ignition on a non VXR astra? Cos it would look great on my 2007 1.9 150 astra, thanks!

[@MrThestag]

Excellent step by step now I can cruise with the best of them 🚗

[@bluudysgarage]

Yeah man!

[@hakan6666ful]

hello i watched many videos before .. can i activate with opcom program in my chevy cruze car? and an opcom licensed online program? thank you...

[@paulsumner1840]

I have a Zafira sri turbo. Ive just instslled the stalk and programmed it with vauxcom. Everything works fine but the stalk must not be pushing in right, it just pulls out. Do have to use the alen key to push it home?

[@bluudysgarage]

It should click in place.

[@efc0106]

Oh right, so the cruise control wont cut out if i press the clutch in?

[@bluudysgarage]

Excellent news - Learn more Every day. id add this into the description.

[@Antizmannen]

Will this work on a half canbus car? Have a Signum built in July 2013 but wanna retrofit the cruise control.

[@nielosoweznaki]

[@imaginariumtv2581]

How do you know what engine? I mean those letters and numbers idk whats that, I have an Astra H 1.3 90hp 66kw

[@bluudysgarage]

Thanks fella. Your car pass should come with the car. Mine was with the leather wallet with the audio code and vin number on it.

[@roblockett9904]

Nope my pass is missing ffs got all the way upto fitting to find out may have pay vauxhall for code now

[@bluudysgarage]

[@guisrs]

Hi! I'm from Brazil and I have an Astra G. Can you tell me if it is the same method to activate the cruise control in my car? I mean, the same commands shown in the video? I'll buy a Opcom within a few days. Sorry for the bad english. Thanks!

[@vintwon]

Can't I program cruise control on my 1999 Saturn the same way or is there another way to do so?

[@bluudysgarage]

i honesly couldnt say, but might be worth giving it a go, opcom is like 20 quid and a stalk is about 40. worse case, keep the opcom and sell the stalk?

[@spanthefestaman]

When does the tell tail illumination come on? When you set it?

[@allieandmaria]

Yup

[@itzp4ul]

do u have to have engine of but ignition on ?

[@maintenancesupport3022]

Brilliant I am Stoke on Trent. What do think of these new MOT emission rules coming out.... I will inbox you and see if we can sort it out once I have a stalk. Cheers Top Man :)

[@bluudysgarage]

Richard Windus not a lot to say really. Bit harsh IMO. If you HAVE a lap top you can get hold of opcom for 20 quid and program it your self. And use my other videos to program lazy lock and comfort close :)
