Cruise Control; Recall and updates
Posted: Mon Jul 30, 2007 8:56 pm
1989 model. My CC isfunctioning intermittently and crazily. Engage then sudden speed-up, or cut out, or not function then speed-up, in other words no control over it except to switch it off!
My local professional expert states that he cannot work on it as it is as originally fitted and has not had the updates through the Jaguar recall system. he does not know the modifications fitted through hese recalls except for some visual connection changes which mine have not had made. can anyone provide me with the info of the recalls and, more importantly the sequence of modifications.
We all heard the scary stories of cars running away as cruise controls accelerated cars into bus queues etc. and my guy thinks i have a CC likely to do something similar. I do know that i went from 70 to "very fast", very rapidly when i switched it on once and it only disconnected after switching all off and coasting to a stop. Fortunately i was on a stretch of quiet motorway.
