Anyone rewire their cruise control? - Click HERE for Original Thread

ludakelv
I'm planning on replacing my steering wheel and I'm wondering if anyone has rewired/relocated their cruise control buttons. I'm thinking about relocated the functions to momentary buttons installed somewhere else. Has anybody here done anything like that? If so, I'd like to chat with you :D

I'd be interestedd in this as well. Perhaps someone on PO.com or H-T has done this...

I've since looked through my helms manual and did some poking around underneath my steering wheel. i think i know which wires i need to tap into and how to wire it to new buttons. i'll be testing soon if i find the steering wheel that i want. i'll do i write up with my results.

probably isnt any harder to do it on the prelude then in my old accord. any button type switch(or whatever you call those things) are probably good for the accel/decel switch on the steering wheel. i guess the only question is where are the buttons reloacated to? thats probably a preference question, but i wouldnt know where it would look nice though

i was thinking about aftermarket buttons. i care a lot about how my car looks :D

my previous car was very ghetto and i don't want that again ;)

shouldnt be too hard i guess. probably 2 wires per button them. just push it once for a +/-1kph for cruise. couldnt see how hard that would be then.

it's not hard if you know what you're doing or if you have a step by step instruction manual.

the tricky part is not frying/shorting/blowing up anything in the process :thumbup:

edit: and the oem setup is one live wire with 2 input wires (one for set/- and the other for resume/+)

id say, split the live wire up and have 4 different buttons, 1 for +, one for -, one for set and the last one for resume. would be interesting to see that though

that's an interesting idea. i'll keep that in mind!

thanks :thumbup:
