Model Y Owner's Manual

Autopilot features.

  • Traffic-Aware Cruise Control: Like traditional cruise control, Traffic-Aware Cruise Control maintains a set driving speed. However, Traffic-Aware Cruise Control also slows down or accelerates Model Y as needed to maintain the following distance from the vehicle in front of you. While Traffic-Aware Cruise Control is engaged, you are still responsible for steering Model Y (see Traffic-Aware Cruise Control ).
  • Autosteer: Like Traffic-Aware Cruise Control, Autosteer maintains a set speed (if there is not a vehicle in front of you) or a set following distance (if there is a vehicle in front of you). In addition, Autosteer detects lane markings, road edges, and the presence of vehicles and objects to intelligently keep Model Y in its driving lane (see Autosteer ). Informational Purposes An informational icon, calling your attention Note Autosteer is a BETA feature.
  • Auto Lane Change : When you engage a turn signal while Autosteer is active, Auto Lane Change moves Model Y into the adjacent lane in the direction indicated by the turn signal (see Auto Lane Change ).
  • Navigate on Autopilot: Navigate on Autopilot builds on the features of Traffic-Aware Cruise Control and Autosteer. While Autosteer is active, Navigate on Autopilot allows Model Y to suggest and, if configured, automatically change lanes to pass other vehicles and follow the navigation route (see Navigate on Autopilot ). Informational Purposes An informational icon, calling your attention Note Navigate on Autopilot is a BETA feature.

Autopilot Settings

  • Set Speed : Choose whether Autopilot engages at the currently detected speed limit or your current driving speed. Touch Controls > Autopilot > Set Speed and choose either Speed Limit or Current Speed .
  • Offset : If you choose Speed Limit , you can specify an offset by touching Set Speed Offset . You can choose Fixed (the cruising speed adjusts by a specific amount on all roads) or Percentage (the cruising speed is adjusted as a percentage of the road's detected speed limit).
  • Autopilot Activation : Choose how to activate Autosteer. If set to Single Pull , both Traffic-Aware Cruise Control and Autosteer engage when you pull the drive stalk down once. If set to Double Pull , you must pull the drive stalk down twice in quick succession to engage Autosteer. Informational Purposes An informational icon, calling your attention Note Autopilot Activation must be set to Double Pull if you want to use Traffic-Aware Cruise Control independently of Autosteer.
  • Green Traffic Light Chime : In Canada and U.S.: If on, a chime will sound when you are waiting at a red traffic light and the light turns green. If you are not actively using Traffic-Aware Cruise Control and are waiting at a red light with a car in front of you, the chime sounds when the car ahead of you advances.

Traffic-Aware Cruise Control

Traffic-Aware Cruise Control is always enabled.

Icon showing the set speed.

If you want a chime to sound when you engage or cancel Traffic-Aware Cruise Control, touch Controls > Autopilot > Traffic-Aware Cruise Control Chime .

To enable Autosteer:

  • Touch Controls > Autopilot > Autopilot Features > Autosteer (Beta) .
  • After carefully reading and understanding the popup window, touch Yes .

Autosteer confirms activation with an audible chime and briefly displays a message on the touchscreen reminding you to pay attention to the road and be ready to take over at any time .

icon of a blue steering wheel

Whenever Autosteer is active, Traffic-Aware Cruise Control is active as well.

In situations where the speed limit cannot be detected when Autosteer is engaged, Autosteer reduces your driving speed and limits the set cruising speed to 45 mph (70 km/h) . Although you can manually accelerate to exceed the limited speed, Model Y will not brake for detected obstacles as long as you are applying the accelerator pedal. Autosteer slows down to the limited speed when you release the accelerator pedal. When you leave the road or disengage Autosteer by using the steering wheel , you can increase your set speed again, if desired.

Auto Lane Change

If you engage a turn signal while Autosteer is active, Model Y moves into the adjacent lane in the direction indicated by the turn signal, provided the following conditions are met:

  • The turn signal is engaged.
  • Lane markings indicate that a lane change is permitted.
  • Midway through the lane change, Model Y must detect the target lane's outside lane marking. If this lane marking is not detected, the lane change is aborted and Model Y returns to its original driving lane.
  • The view of the camera(s) is not obstructed.
  • Model Y does not detect a vehicle in its blind spot, or a vehicle or obstacle up to the center of the target lane. If a vehicle or other obstacle is detected in the target lane, it is shown in red in the visualization on the touchscreen and Model Y does not complete the lane change until it is safe to do so.

The minimum speed at which Autopilot changes lanes may vary depending on region, adjacent lane speeds, and other factors. Always be ready to manually steer and change lanes as necessary. When an automatic lane change is in progress, Overtake Acceleration is activated, allowing Model Y to accelerate closer to a vehicle in front (see Overtake Acceleration ).

When you engage a turn signal, Autopilot moves Model Y one lane at a time. Moving into an additional lane requires you to engage the turn signal a second time after the first lane change is complete.

As Model Y changes lanes, it is important to monitor its performance by watching the driving path in front of you and the surrounding area. Stay prepared to take over steering at any time. As you are crossing over into the adjacent lane, the touchscreen displays the location in the lane that Model Y is moving into.

Navigate on Autopilot

To enable Navigate on Autopilot, touch Controls > Autopilot > Navigate on Autopilot (Beta) . Then, to customize how you want Navigate on Autopilot to operate, touch Customize Navigate on Autopilot :

  • Enable at Start of Every Trip : Choose whether to automatically enable Navigate on Autopilot for every navigation route. When enabled, the Navigate on Autopilot button on the turn-by-turn direction list is already enabled at the start of every trip.
  • Speed Based Lane Changes : Navigate on Autopilot is designed to perform both route-based and speed-based lane changes. Speed-based lanes changes are optional. You can use this setting to disable speed-based lane changes or to specify how assertively you want Navigate on Autopilot to change lanes to achieve the set cruising speed ( Mild , Average , or Mad Max ).
  • Exit Passing Lane : Choose whether you want Navigate on Autopilot to maneuver out of a passing lane when navigating to a destination. In addition to route-based and speed-based lane changes, Navigate on Autopilot requests a lane change out of a passing lane as a reminder to stay in a slower lane when you are not passing other vehicles. Choose No to disable this and keep Model Y in a passing lane except when needed to stay on the navigation route.
  • Require Lane Change Confirmation : (if equipped) By default, Navigate on Autopilot requires your confirmation before proceeding with a lane change by engaging the appropriate turn signal . If you do not confirm the lane change within 3 seconds, a chime sounds to remind you that Navigate on Autopilot requires your confirmation to change lanes.
  • Lane Change Notification : You can specify if or how you want to be notified of lane changes ( Off , Chime , Vibrate , or Both ).

If Enable at Start of Every Trip is turned on, Navigate on Autopilot engages automatically when:

  • Autosteer is active.
  • You are navigating to a destination.
  • You are on a controlled-access highway.

Once enabled, the Navigate on Autopilot button appears on the map’s turn-by-turn direction list whenever a navigation route is active and the route includes at least one controlled-access highway.

If Enable at Start of Every Trip is turned off, touch the Navigate on Autopilot button above the turn-by-turn directions to enable it. Once the Navigate on Autopilot is selected, it will engage whenever you engage Autosteer.

The Navigate on Autopilot icon with a steering wheel when it is not active

Whenever Navigate on Autopilot is active, the Navigate on Autopilot button is blue and the touchscreen displays the driving lane as a single blue line in front of Model Y :

ve cruise control stalk

The turn-by-turn directions display the Autosteer icon next to the maneuvers (such as off-ramps) that Navigate on Autopilot will handle.

When Navigate on Autopilot is engaged Model Y automatically makes both speed-based and route-based lane changes.

  • Speed Based Lane Changes: Navigate on Autopilot changes lanes to reduce driving time to your destination. For example, if Model Y is behind a vehicle going below the set cruising speed, Navigate on Autopilot will move into the passing lane to pass it. Speed-based lanes changes are optional.
  • Route Based Lane Changes: Navigate on Autopilot changes lanes to route you to your destination. For example, Navigate on Autopilot will move into the exit lane as Model Y approaches the off-ramp specified by the navigation route.

If you ignore a route-based lane change suggestion (for example, you are driving in the left lane while approaching an off-ramp on the right side of the highway), Navigate on Autopilot is unable to maneuver onto the off-ramp and as a result, you are re-routed to your destination.

Navigate on Autopilot activates and deactivates based on the type of road you are driving on. When Navigate on Autopilot is active and you approach an off-ramp or interchange along your navigation route, the appropriate turn signal engages and Autosteer maneuvers Model Y onto the off-ramp or interchange.

When you leave a controlled-access highway Navigate on Autopilot reverts to Autosteer—a chime sounds and the touchscreen displays the driving lane lines in blue (instead of the single blue in front of Model Y ). When Navigate on Autopilot deactivates, Autosteer remains active. Always be prepared to take appropriate action.

Canceling Autopilot

Traffic-Aware Cruise Control cancels when:

  • CAUTION: If you move the drive stalk upward and hold it up for more than one second, Model Y shifts into Neutral after canceling Autosteer.
  • You press the brake pedal.
  • You exceed 90 mph (150 km/h) .
  • You shift into Reverse, Park, or Neutral.
  • A door is opened.
  • An Automatic Emergency Braking event occurs (see Collision Avoidance Assist ).
  • The driver's seatbelt is released, and/or the driver gets out of their seat.

Image of the drive stalk with an arrow going up.

When Traffic-Aware Cruise Control cancels, the cruising speed icon on the touchscreen turns gray to indicate that Traffic-Aware Cruise Control is no longer active.

Autosteer cancels when any of the above actions are taken. In addition, Autosteer cancels when:

  • You exceed 85 mph (140 km/h) .
  • You take over steering manually. Warning Icon A warning icon, calling your attention to a possibly risky situation Warning If Autopilot Activation is set to Double Pull and Autosteer cancels because you started steering manually , Traffic-Aware Cruise Control remains active. If Autopilot Activation is set to Single Pull and Autosteer cancels because you started steering manually , Traffic-Aware Cruise Control also cancels.
  • You do not respond to repeated reminders to keep your hands on the wheel and subsequent messages on the touchscreen (see Driver Attentiveness ).

When Autosteer cancels, a chime sounds and the Autosteer icon either turns gray to indicate that Autosteer is no longer active, or disappears to indicate that it is not currently available.

  • You touch the Navigate on Autopilot button on the map’s turn-by-turn direction list. In this case, Autosteer is still active.
  • You leave a controlled-access highway. When this happens, Autosteer is still active.

When Navigate on Autopilot cancels but Autosteer remains active, a chime sounds and the visualization goes from a single blue line in the driving lane to two blue lines on either side of the lane.

When Traffic-Aware Cruise Control or Autosteer cancels, Model Y does not coast. Instead, regenerative braking slows down Model Y in the same way as when you move your foot off the accelerator when driving without Traffic-Aware Cruise Control (see Regenerative Braking ).

While Using Autopilot

When Traffic-Aware Cruise Control is active and Autopilot is maintaining a set speed, the speed is highlighted with blue text on the touchscreen .

When Autosteer is active, the steering wheel icon is blue and the lane markings are highlighted in blue on the visualization. If Navigate on Autopilot is also active, the Navigate on Autopilot button is blue and the touchscreen displays the driving lane as a single blue line in front of Model Y .

To display more details about the roadway and its surroundings, such as road markings, stop lights, and objects (such as trash cans and poles), touch Controls > Autopilot > Full Self-Driving Visualization Preview .

If unable to detect lane markings, Autosteer may determine the driving lane based on a vehicle you are following. In most cases, Autosteer attempts to center Model Y in the driving lane. However, there may be situations in which Autosteer follows a driving path that is offset from the center of the lane (for example, if guard rails are detected).

Maintaining the Set Speed

When Autopilot is active, Model Y maintains your set cruising speed whenever a vehicle is not detected in front of it. When cruising behind a vehicle, Model Y accelerates and decelerates as needed to maintain a chosen following distance (see Adjusting the Following Distance ), up to the set speed.

You can manually accelerate at any time by pressing the accelerator pedal, but when you release the pedal Model Y resumes cruising at the set speed.

Model Y also adjusts the cruising speed when entering and exiting curves.

When Model Y is actively slowing down to maintain the selected distance from the vehicle ahead, brake lights turn on. You may notice slight movement of the brake pedal. However, when Model Y is accelerating, the accelerator pedal does not move.

Changing the Set Speed

Roll the right scroll wheel up to increase, or down to decrease, the set speed.

You can also change the cruising speed to the current speed limit (including any offset you've specified), by either:

  • Pushing the drive stalk downward and briefly holding.
  • Touching and briefly holding the speed limit sign on the touchscreen until you see the cruising speed change.

Image showing a zoombox going to the right scroll wheel with arrows going up and down on the scroll wheel.

It may take a few seconds for Model Y to reach the new cruising speed.

Adjusting the Following Distance

The closest following distance is 2.

Image showing a zoombox going to the right scroll wheel with arrows going left and right on the scroll wheel.

Each setting corresponds to a time-based distance that represents how long it takes for Model Y , from its current location, to reach the location of the rear bumper of the vehicle ahead of you. Autopilot retains your setting until you change it again.

As you adjust the following distance, the touchscreen displays the current setting.

Screenshot of two cars with a measurement between them and the number "3".

Stopping and Slowdowns

When moving significantly faster than vehicles in adjacent lanes, Model Y automatically reduces the driving speed. This is especially helpful in heavy traffic situations or when vehicles are constantly merging into different lanes. When Model Y detects other vehicles driving significantly slower, the touchscreen highlights the adjacent lanes with arrows and detected vehicles in gray, and Model Y reduces the driving speed as appropriate. To temporarily override this feature, press the accelerator pedal.

ve cruise control stalk

When following a vehicle, Autopilot remains active at low speeds, even when Model Y comes to a full stop. For example, Autopilot remains active even if Model Y slows down to a complete or near-complete stop in heavy, stop-and-go traffic on a highway. When traffic starts moving more rapidly, Autopilot again accelerates up to the set speed.

Sometimes when Model Y is at a full stop, Autopilot goes into a HOLD state. If this happens, briefly press the accelerator pedal to resume cruising.

Icon of an "H" inside a circle with half circles on each side of the circle.

Model Y goes into HOLD state while Autopilot is active in the following circumstances:

  • Model Y has been at a standstill for 5 minutes.
  • Model Y detects a pedestrian (the HOLD state may clear when the pedestrian is no longer detected).
  • Model Y suddenly loses visibility of the vehicle in front of you.
  • An obstacle is detected in front of Model Y .

Cruising Near or On Exits

When you are cruising near an exit on a controlled-access highway and engage the turn signal toward the off-ramp, Autopilot assumes you are exiting and begins to slow down Model Y . If you do not drive onto the off-ramp, Autopilot resumes cruising at the set speed.

In a region with right hand traffic, this occurs only when you engage the right turn signal when driving in the right-most lane within 164 ft. (50 meters) of an exit. Likewise in regions with left hand traffic, this occurs when engaging the left turn signal when driving in the left-most lane within 164 ft. (50 meters) of an exit.

When enabled while on a highway interchange or off-ramp, Traffic-Aware Cruise Control may reduce your set speed in 5 mph (5 km/h) increments – to as slow as 25 mph (40 km/h) – to better match the reported speeds of other Tesla vehicles that have driven at that specific location. To override this and continue cruising at your set speed, tap the accelerator pedal. The new set speed is maintained for the duration of the interchange or off-ramp (unless you override it or cancel Autopilot). After the interchange or off-ramp, the set speed may revert or change as necessary based on the new location. For example, if you merged onto a different highway, the set cruising speed reverts to what it was before driving on the interchange.

When cruising onto an on-ramp to a controlled-access highway, Autopilot automatically adjusts the set cruising speed to the speed limit of the highway, plus any offset you have specified. If Navigate on Autopilot is engaged, it disengages as you leave the controlled-access highway (see Canceling Autopilot ). In this case, Autosteer remains active.

Overtake Acceleration

Engage the turn signal momentarily to accelerate Model Y towards the vehicle ahead of it. By momentarily holding the turn signal stalk up or down , you can quickly accelerate up to your set speed without having to press the accelerator pedal as long as:

  • Traffic-Aware Cruise Control is operating and detects a vehicle in front of you.
  • No obstacles or vehicles are detected in the target lane.
  • Model Y is traveling below the set speed, but over 45 mph (72 km/h) .

Model Y stops accelerating when you reach your set cruising speed, if changing lanes takes too long, or if Model Y gets too close the vehicle ahead. Model Y also stops accelerating if you disengage the turn signal.

Stop Light and Stop Sign Warning

While Autopilot is in use, Model Y displays a warning on the touchscreen and sounds a chime if it detects that you are likely to run through a red stop light or stop sign. If this happens, TAKE IMMEDIATE CORRECTIVE ACTION!

The visual and audible warnings cancel after a few seconds or when you press the brake pedal, whichever comes first.

Stop Light and Stop Sign Warning provides warnings only. It does not slow down or stop Model Y at red traffic lights, stop signs, road markings, etc. If equipped with Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control, you can enable this feature to automatically stop Model Y at traffic lights and stop signs (see Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control ).

Emergency Vehicles

If available in your market region, Model Y automatically reduces driving speed when lights from an emergency vehicle are detected when using Autosteer at night on a high speed road. When this happens, the touchscreen displays a message informing you of the slowdown. You will also hear a chime, and see a reminder to keep your hands on the steering wheel . When the light detections pass by or cease to appear, Autopilot resumes your cruising speed. Alternatively, you may tap the accelerator to resume your cruising speed.

Never depend on Autopilot features to determine the presence of emergency vehicles. Model Y may not detect lights from emergency vehicles. Keep your eyes on your driving path and always be prepared to take immediate action.

Driver Attentiveness

Autosteer determines how best to steer Model Y . When active, Autosteer requires you to hold the steering wheel. If it does not detect your hands on the steering wheel for a period of time, a flashing blue light appears at the top of the vehicle status section of the touchscreen and the following message displays:

Hands on steering wheel

When your hands are detected, the message disappears and Autosteer resumes normal operation. Autosteer detects your hands by recognizing slight resistance as the steering wheel turns, or from you manually turning the steering wheel very lightly (without enough force to take over steering). Autosteer also qualifies your hands as being detected if you engage a turn signal or use a button or scroll wheel on the steering wheel.

Autosteer requires that you pay attention to your surroundings and remain prepared to take control at any time. If Autosteer still does not detect your hands on the steering wheel, the flashing light on the vehicle status section of the touchscreen increases in frequency and a chime sounds.

If you repeatedly ignore Autosteer's prompts to apply slight force to the steering wheel, Autosteer disables for the rest of the drive and displays the following message requesting you to drive manually.

Exclamation point within a triangle

For the rest of the drive, you must steer manually. Autosteer is available again on your next drive (after you stop and shift Model Y into Park).

If you don't resume manual steering, Autosteer sounds a continuous chime, turns on the warning flashers, and slows the vehicle to a complete stop.

If Autosteer repeatedly disengages due to driver attentiveness, your access to Autosteer may be suspended.

In situations where Autosteer is unable to steer Model Y , Autosteer sounds a warning chime and displays the following message on the touchscreen .

When you see this message, TAKE OVER STEERING IMMEDIATELY .

Hey everyone, I've got an issue with the cruise control function on my 2007 VE Berlina. To put it simply, it wont turn on. I try pressing the on/off button and nothing happens, has anybody had an issue like this before? I've noticed other things which may or may not be linked to this. For instance, a while back when I had the radio on any pre-set station other then the station which is set to the "1" button on the far left side, it would change straight back to the "1" station almost instantly. Also I've noticed the HVAC screen completely blank with only the green backlight whilst driving, this was fixed by pressing a button but still, not how it should be. Any help GREATLY appreciated, as you can imagine this is quite worrying.

Usually with cruise problems it's the stalk that's busted in some way (usually the rocker switch). I heard it was a common prob with the VZ too as it's got the same system. As for if it's related to your stereo/HVAC woes I can't say. Best to get it in to holden and see what they say.  

Searching for the billion

check the fuses and connectors if you can find them. If its the switch on the stalk you can probably find one on the net from Holmart or similar place pretty cheap and see if that fixes it.  

Turns out the cruise control turns on when you turn the cruise lever like you normally would to activate/set the cruise control. Perhaps just the button is buggered. The  

thats weird ? so the button on the end does nothing on yours then ?

Yea mate, it just happened all of a sudden. Got me stumped.

Yep a thread dig, but mine was a intermittent fault, some times cruise would work fine other time it wouldn't work at all. I tried adjust the brake switch, no joy. Replaced the brake switch No joy. Change the stalk over and all good. Helps when you have 3 VE's in the gargage and can swap parts over. The stalk worked fine for all other functions maybe a loose wire inside.  

Shorty33

I had a VZ - the cruise Control developed an intermittent fault. As time went by, the problem became more frequent. Eventually, it only worked about 75% of the time. When I turned it "on" it would go "on", but it failed to allow me to set a speed. Each time it failed, it would usually work fine after I turned the ignition off and start again - not very convenient ! There were threads about it on the JC-VZ forum. I remember reporting my problem there. I never fixed it. Perhaps there was a solution there, somewhere ? In 2010, I got a VE - it eventually started to paly up in 2013. I've just done 11,000km in six weeks, and the cruise-control failed two or three times. I like the theory that it's a loose wire in the stalk - if it were a fuse, I don't think that it would be intermittent.

Turbo l98 ftw.

Mine in the vz did the exact same thing - replaced the ABS module with a second hand unit and it started working again

check the BGB.  

Don't have one. A while back I thought I found one online but can't seem to find the link again.  

Hey Eric-- Rich from right up the street. I have a BGB you can borrow, and if you want to get rid of those cruise control components (or trade them for non-cc type stuff, including the steering column surrounds, throttle cable, etc...) I'd like to install that stuff in my 85. PM or email me, or stop by. Happy New Year. Rich

Friday after work---from 4:30 on...  

Sure thing, I'll take pics of all the key points and post them up. I think the most difficult part is going to be the wiring removal and steering wheel parts. The engine bay looks straight forward enough.  

it's actually pretty easy. just undo the surround, unplug it, remove the wires from the plug, replug it, and viola! i did it in my 87  

if *ANYBODY* is selling cruise control parts, let me know. I'm trying to surprise a toyota buddy of mine with a working cruise control system

I'll just post in the other channels for now on then. I'm used to scrounging for 34 year old porsche stuff. I'm a scavenger for sure!  

Hey guys.. (Eric and Rich near Dallas) I just Yanked the Cruise out of my AW11 4AGE in preperation for the 4AGZE install. And I would be more than willing to sell all of the parts.. unfortuneately there was no way to save the wiring.. but I have all of the hardware.. all of the units and Speed Control.. heck, I even have the stalk.. but with cut wires. PM me if you are interested in any of these parts.. US Dallas guys will have to get together soon especially after my Swap is done.  

I'm trying to red rid of it, not get more of it! haha Rich might be interested if any of my parts break or something. I know my cables have seen better days, a little frayed from what I can tell. I do a Tuesday night meet in Grapevine if some DFW guys are interested. A lot of 300ZXTT's, RX7, GTO, Honda, and one other MR2 owner besides myself right now.  

Oh, and a Tip when taking off the steering wheel.. loosen the nut, but keep it on there, so when you yank, it pulls it off, but not all the way.. =) then just take the nut off and the wheel.. no need for a steering wheel puller.  

I tried getting it off a few days ago with no luck, but I was afraid I would break the wheel off lol. I'll give it a tug on each side one after the other next time and see if that works.  

i didn't have to take my steering wheel off... neither did i have to cut the wires for the stalk... *shrug*  

well, I looked and looked, and could not figure a way to "unplug" anything on my 89.  

killersiller-- Where did you disconnect? I am hoping that Toyota only made one style of wiring harness, and all the plugs are there, just not used. FWIW I have a stock 85, with power windows/mirrors/locks, but without cruise. I am hoping to fit the stock cruise control components. If it is plug and play, I'm in. If I have to re-wire everything and re-invent the wheel, well, let's just say I have plenty of other projects to get through first...  

*grabs bgb* on page BE-2 and BE-3 of the BGB it talks about how to remove the wires from the connector. basically, the connector has tabs that sit behind the end of the wires. if you look at the business end of the connector you can see them. stick a screwdriver down in there, and you can pull the wires out without having to cut anything. i'd scan the page out of the BGB, but i don't think that would be appreciated on this forum. i believe that there is a different chassis harness for the cruise VS not cruise equipped. i have all the stuff, and the chassis harness for that matter (actually, two of them). i might cannibalize them to make a PNP cruise control setup to sell.  

From what I saw, all of the wires in the steering column go to one giant connector, that is the connector that you can "pull" wires out of.. and in theory do the reverse and "put" wires in. On the other side there appeared to be multiple connectors, and one of those most likely is the plug for the cruise. My point is that the wires are integrated into the harness .. and goes all the way from the dash area to the fuse box in the engine bay... and then all the way into the trunk where it plugs into the "speed control" unit there. Killer, if you were able to meticulously <sp> were able to pull every wire out of the harness, then you are a better man than me.. and had a lot more time to do that then I.  

I don't much care for picking out every single wire, I just don't want wires hanging everywhere after I remove it. If I can just tape them up and push them back somewhere that would be fine. I already have a hairball of wires under my dash from the genius who decided to install an alarm, but didn't know what to do with all the wires.

And what if I want to re-install it again later on? Butchering my wiring harness doesn't sound like a good plan. I don't see a problem with taping up unused wires and moving them out of the way, a lot of cars come this way from the factory that did not utilize certain features like cruise control.

How to Use Cruise Control Safely

Everything you need to know for safe, stress-free driving with your car's cruise-control system.

clock, font, icon, circle, illustration, logo, stopwatch, home accessories, symbol, graphic design,

Its Job Is to Maintain Speed

Cruise control's primary function is to maintain the speed of your choosing, relieving you of needing to keep your foot on the throttle. Virtually all cars on the road today rely on an electronic control module—a computer—to monitor the vehicle's speed and to readjust it as needed to hold the speed you've chosen regardless of the road's gradient.

 

Know the Controls

You operate cruise control by either a stalk on the steering column or several buttons on the steering wheel. These include an on-off switch; a "set" button to select the speed you want the car to maintain; and buttons or switches marked "+" and "—" that increase or decrease the speed after it has been set, often in 1-mph increments. A "cancel" button disengages the cruise-control system without shutting it off entirely, allowing the car to coast. (Cars with stalk-operated cruise control have a "cancel" position that you move the stalk to in order to disengage the system.) A "resume" function or button brings the car back to its previously set speed. Braking or depressing the clutch at any time will also cancel cruise control. Should you need to make a quick pass, you can always override the preset speed by simply pressing down further on the gas pedal.

Adaptive Cruise's Added Features

Many newer cars offer what's known as adaptive cruise control, sometimes also called active cruise. It works in the same way as conventional cruise systems and additionally relies on front-mounted radar , cameras, or sensors to detect the presence of vehicles directly ahead in your lane. This enables adaptive cruise-control systems to maintain a set distance from the vehicle in front no matter how it varies its speed.

Adaptive systems allow you to adjust how closely your vehicle follows the one ahead but are programmed so that they always maintain at least a safe minimum following distance. Some of these systems also have the ability to brake and even come to a complete stop in city traffic and, depending on the vehicle, automatically accelerate without the driver pressing the gas pedal when traffic starts to move again.

Semi-Autonomous Cruise Control

Finally, the newest, most advanced cruise control systems, such as such as Nissan ProPilot Assist, Subaru EyeSight, and Audi Traffic Jam Assist, are semi-automated driving assistants that combine adaptive cruise control with lane-keeping assist, which self-steers the car gently to keep it in lane if you let it wander out—although you can only take your hands off the wheel for a few seconds before the system sounds alarms and then shuts off.

Most of these systems also can autonomously negotiate only the most gentle curves on the interstate. Some semi-autonomous systems, such as those from Tesla and Mercedes-Benz , can do more, including steering the car into the adjacent lane while keeping enough distance from other cars.

Follow These Safety Rules

No matter which type of cruise control your car has, the guidelines for using it effectively and safely are the same:

  • Always remain alert and aware of other traffic, and be ready to take control and brake or steer around obstacles, inattentive drivers, or emergency situations.
  • Think of even the most advanced adaptive and semi-autonomous cruise control systems as "dumb." They are programmed by humans and may react unpredictably in certain, unforeseen conditions. (See previous point: "remain alert.") Rain, snow, and fog can obscure radar signals and confuse cameras or sensors, sometimes disabling adaptive cruise control entirely. As with conventional cruise control, with an advanced cruise system you must always be prepared to take full control at a moment's notice.
  • Cruise control is still best suited for use on highways and in light traffic. If your vehicle has conventional (not adaptive) cruise control, be sure to leave adequate spacing between your car and those ahead, and be prepared to disengage the system by braking or tapping "cancel" as you creep up on other vehicles or get into heavy traffic.
  • Do not use cruise control in slippery conditions, including snowy or icy roads or rain-soaked roads awash in deep puddles. Most cruise systems will attempt to maintain your speed until you intervene, and on slippery roads that could cause you to momentarily lose traction, upsetting the car and potentially precipitating an accident.

Treat cruise control as a simple labor-saving convenience, however—but one that must be monitored—and you'll enjoy many miles of comfortable, stress-free travel.

DIY: Crusie Control Stalk Repair

  • Thread starter mystix
  • Start date Aug 11, 2015

Passed Driver's Ed

  • Aug 11, 2015

The Cruise Control stopped working on the car so I had it scanned by someone with a vagcom cable and this is what the scan reported. Address 16: Steering wheel Labels: 1K0-953-549-MY8.lbl Part No SW: 1K0 953 549 BD HW: 1K0 953 549 BD Component: J0527 036 0070 Coding: 0002022 Shop #: WSC 01279 785 00200 VCID: 75E1E9A31CE3BA9675-8020 Subsystem 1 - Part No: XXXXXXXXXXX Component: E0221 002 0010 1 Fault Found: 00895 - Cruise Control Switch (E45) 014 - Defective According to Ross-Tech it is usually a dirty connector so I popped off the back cover for the cruise control stalk, removed the plastic assembly from the circuit board and while I didn't immediately realize that the carbon buildup on the circuit board was not normal, I did notice that one of the wires running down the stalk was cut so I took the challenge or repairing the wire and cleaning the carbon of the contacts. I decided to make a DIY out of this and this is my first ever attempt at making a walk-through guide ever and I have to appreciate the effort people put into making their DIYs because it is a very tedious process. I am simply going to post my pictures and hopefully people will be able to follow along. Once the process is completed my cruise control didn't work until I disconnected the battery terminal and re-connected it. My guess is once the fault is logged the system doesn't re-check the controller. For people with vagcom maybe you can simply clear the code and don't need to disconnect battery. I am also missing a few steps so I will summarize in point form below what needs to be done and you can use the pictures as guides. 1) Start by unlocking the steering lever at the bottom and push the steering wheel out all the way. 2) Remove the top cover by first pushing out the trim piece from the instrument cluster area and then follow up by separating the top cover from the bottom cover. 3) Remove the two screws holding the bottom cover from the column. 4) Remove the two small silver screws on the cruise control stalk. The top one is visible in the picture just above the screw holding the bottom cover. 5) Unclip the black plastic ring around the base of the cruise control stalk. It won't come out yet, just free it for now. 6) Remove the back cover of the stalk, simply unclips. 7) push out the cruise control assembly and remove the two screws to disassemble it. If your circuit board looks like mine (covered with carbon) then use a screw driver to scratch it off until the golden contacts are visible. 9) Remove the black plastic ring from step 5. 10) Now we need to free up the wires so we can easily repair them. Pull the stalk forward which will allow the base assembly to part in the middle. You can pull forward enough for the stalk to dislodge a little bit so there's enough gap in the base of the assembly. 11) Pull your wires out and repair them. I admit I did a shitty job and re-joining them but I'm content with my effort. Most people would probably use heat shrink and solder the wires but alas, like I said, contempt. Also my MAF sensor wires are re-joined at multiple points just by twisting and have been left exposed for the last 4 years and the CEL hasn't returned. 12) Now that the repair is completed run the wires back into the assembly. 13) Put back the black plastic ring and clip it in. 14) re-assembly the circuit board and plastic assembly, be sure to clean your contacts! 15) screw back the base assembly (top and bottom screws) and the back cover. 16) Now put on the bottom steering column cover and screw it back in. 17) The top cover has a semi-circular end which is suppose to click into back of the bottom cover. Pop them into position and you should be able to pivot the top cover, and then bring the top cover down and let it click back into the bottom cover and then re-insert the trim piece into the instrument cluster. At this point you should have a functioning cruise control system. I hope this DIY is helpful.

After 1 year and all that troubleshooting it seems to me you have the same malfunction you had before replacing the stalk: Terminal 15. I think you need to find out what that reference points out to and go from there. Did you do a lot of poking around the steering column when you initially installed the aftermarket radio+backup cam or routing the trailer wiring through the firewall? You had the same "Terminal 15" malfunction back in September 2022

@Drclaw -- The CCS functions are contolled in the ECU J623, with inputs from other modules, sensors, and switches. Alas, the repair manual "Electrical Equipment General Information" says little about a diagnostic procedure, except to use the "Vehicle Diagnostic Tester in the Guided Fault Finding mode". We know that brake pedal actuation disables the CCS -- but is it due to the brake lamp switch -F- or the brake pedal switch -F47- ? And are you using a proper Towing Recognition Module -J345- in your retrofit ? --g  

Are you saying that the brake signal cancels CCS generally speaking or that something in my scans or other info shows that? When I installed the trailer light hookups I probably tapped into a brake light. This is the module I used. Tekonsha 119147 ModuLite HD Protector Trailer Light Power Module https://a.co/d/aGZ6k1Z  

@Drclaw -- Yes, brake AND clutch pedal actuation are expected to cancel CCS. You should look at these switches in VCDS Live Data next. My sister's 2010 Hyundai had a similar problem when one of the rear brake light bulbs failed -- the CCS would not enable until the failed bulb was replaced. So maybe your tapping into the rear brake light circuit for your aftermarket towing module may be the culprit here. --g

I would imagine that the mounting bracket will likely be spot welded to the donor vehicle. If so Andy may be able to cut it off for you and then you could mount it with nuts and bolts? Tony.

On the Z3 M Coupe the brackets were fitted even if the optional cruise control wasn't installed when it left the factory. Both of my M Coupes had the bracket fitted (spot welded to wing as already mentioned), neither had the cruise control installed. I have all the bits & pieces to install CC on my present car, just need the time to do it!!

It possibly might be that the unit needs to be secure for the cable to work properly  

Jjim

Link from some others who have retrofitted cruise - https://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?2154335-99-Z3-cruise-control-retrofit  

@Althulas The unit was secured down very well with zip ties. Not a permanent solution by any means but would be sufficient for testing. After the zip ties were installed the motor could not be moved by hand.  

Just a though but If everything is connected right you could test the plug end of the motor actuator to see if it’s recieving power and same at the modular end. If your getting power to either I sorry to say I don’t know how to test the actuator or the module though.  

I don’t know if a code reader would shed any light on the matter as well.

Wow this is fairly complicated, on my 2002 3.0 l just installed the column switch, connected the interface box to the connector under the dash and it worked straightaway. Although the parts cost over £100 it was well worth it, l just wish l had it on my Defender 110

A faulty brake switch can also disable the cruise control. The brake switch has 2 sets of contacts, the cruise control does not use the same contacts as the brake lights. You can use a code reader to read the DME error codes, a faulty brake switch will show up as implausible.

OK, been through the circuit diagrams now, I put you slightly wrong. One set of contacts is used for both the lights and cruise control. The second set of contacts are used by the DME to check that the brake switch is operating correctly (safety check). If the safety check is not set, the DME disables the cruise control. I had this on my 2.0 L Z3, sometimes the cruise control would work, other times it would not. The error code in the DME was about a brake switch that was implausible. Changed the brake switch and all was good.

I am following this thread with interest @Faheem as you probably know this is a mod i am very interested in doing so hoping the solution turns out to be a simple one . If you look at your picture above of your clutch switch you will see @Murray Wall is correct there is 2 lives and 2 earths into the brake switch.

I am thinking of fitting cruise control to mine. It is a late 2001 2.2i Auto. Am I right in thinking this is fairly easy. Is it ‘fly by wire’?

How to use the Tesla Model S cruise control system

' src=

Tesla Model S Cruise Control

[Video Demo] New Tesla Firmware 6.1 shows first signs of Autopilot

Pushing up or down on the cruise stalk will initially set your cruise speed as long as you’re traveling at 17 MPH or above. I have no idea why they chose to add in this minimum speed threshold. To me it would have been more convenient if it allowed me to resume my previous cruising speed from any point.

Using Cruise Control

The cruise control stalk has a 2-step toggle similar to that of the turn signal. A lighter nudge will enable a 1 MPH increase or decrease in cruising speed depending in which direction you nudge it. Pushing the stalk with a bit more pressure will click it into a higher change in speed at 5 MPH.

Resuming cruise control is as simple as pulling the stalk towards you. The car will quickly accelerate back to the set cruising speed but in a controlled manner, never exceeding 80kW of acceleration. I tested a 20 to 70 MPH cruise resume and found it to be very smooth and safe feeling.

Canceling the cruise control, but not turn it off, requires a forward push on the stalk. This can be quite jarring for your passengers since the car will suddenly slow down without much notice due to the regenerative braking.

Tip:   Offset the regenerative braking by keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal and applying some gentle acceleration before canceling cruise control. This takes time to master but is well worth the effort.

Cruise Display

There’s a small marker on the outer trim of the digital bezel that indicates the speed at which cruise control is set at. You’re not constrained to this speed so you can always accelerate past that marker by depressing the accelerator pedal or cancel cruise control all together by pushing the stalk away from you.

Theory suggests that cruise control will improve energy efficiency in the Tesla Model S by helping the vehicle maintain a set speed while it tackles elevation changes. People tend to accelerate and decelerate when not entirely needed therefore wasting energy. Regenerative braking reclaims 70% of this wasted energy but, even at that, using cruise control will ensure that you’re using energy efficiently.

The high-mounted location of the Tesla Model S cruise control stalk takes some getting used to. Canceling cruise control also requires practice as it kicks off regenerative braking the second you toggle the stalk forward. But overall Tesla did a great job building out the cruise control system. In fact it’s one of the best cruise control systems I’ve ever used!

Happy cruising!

ve cruise control stalk

Sweet man! I like it... although I will never buy a vehicle without cruisecontrol... this is a good mod for those who did...  

thats awesome!!! nice write-up too I never really use my CC though, maybe 3 times since I have owned the truck  

I would like to add that it costs 108.99 which includes shipping.  

My local Toyota dealer wants $180 for the parts. Looks like I'm going to try to price them on the internet to see if I can get them closer to the $100 mark like you did.  

Pb

Nice DIY. Added to the sticky.  

Bigblue

Great Job!! Yeah, I hardly ever use mine. I never think about it.  

Aw come on. Is it really that easy? Nothing needed under the hood, just plug and play? If it is all that easy, I'll order up the parts a.s.a.p. It would make life so sweet for us cheap bastards that didn't opt for cruise to start with. Did I mention, I'm cheap?

OK...I installed the "crap aftermarket" cruise control I have been very happy with it. It works great.

will this work for 2009???? Does anyone know if this will work for the 2009 tocoma?????  

OK..thanks. I went ahead and ordered all the parts, including the clutch switch. I may try and use it anyway. Thanks again  

I know this is off-topic, but do you think you could install the steering wheel mounted radio controls just as easily? With the stock unit?  

Doubt it...unless you have a V6...I'm sure the wiring harness is completely different. I don't think the 4 cyl reg or access cabs have the option for the upgraded radio...I could be wrong though. I think you would have to replace the airbag with a different module anyways...  

Wow, thank you.  

Ordered the parts today. Keeping my fingers crossed it works as advertised!  

I didnt have as much luck The cruise control parts wont work on my 03 tacoma. the plugs, covers and bolt hole patterns are different. Guess I should have tore it town and compared to your pictures before I ordered. Ive got $147.00 dollars shipping and all in this kit. Ill let it go for $100.00 shipping encluded if anyones interested, email me at [email protected] P.S. Kit includes everything to install a cruise on a toyota plus a clutch switch.  

awesome! the installation of this "mod" is wicked simple and works great. and it looks exactly like from factory. i love how toyota prewired the entire option up to the steering column. i have an automatic, so i don't know how the clutch switch install compares, but my experience was enjoyable. i ordered the 3 parts (stalk, wire shroud, cover) and bought 2 machine screws ( 0.5"L 10D x 32T ) at the hardware store. disassembling, installing the cc parts, and reassembling it all took less than 10 minutes. great diy, thanks!  

Do you have the part number for the wire shroud? I don't beleave it was shown at the beginning of the thread. Thanks...  

THat wire shround is the 84633-04020 Cruise control wire...shroud, wire....its all the same.  

What were the machine screws for? Does this not come with the screws to mount the stalk?  

Okay folks -- I've got to say this DIY is absolutely incredible . It tool me a little over an hour including the clutch switch installation. Unbelievably easy! A couple of notes: - Pay very close attention to the photos. The clutch switch is mounted behind the driver's side J/B and must be accessed from the top after you remove the lower dash panel and J/B. I was thinking I could get to it from underneath but it's just not practical. - Yes -- you'll need (2) 1/2" 10/32 screws to attach the stalk to the steering wheel. It doesn't come with them. A million thanks to mhadden for paving the way for this mod. I owe you one!  

No problem, Tacobama. Yeah, I bummed my switch from a test vehicle we had at my old job...it was a cut up Scion, so the stalk wasn't going to be used...I figured the screws would've come with the stalk until TN member parkinglot PMed me asking about them. My apologies for not including them in the write up. I will edit the DIY to include the screws for ordering (though you should be able to get them at any hardware store).  

OK...an update. I originally installed the aftermarket cruise control in '05 and have been very happy with it. Works great. Rock steady on maintaining speed. Anyway, I do like the OEM look, so I went ahead and ordered the OEM parts. I decided rather than removing the aftermarket unit, I would just install the steering wheel stalk and see if it would work without me having to install the clutch switch again, which is a PITA. Turns out it works great! So, for those of you with the aftermarket unit, you really only need to order the stalk, wire harness, and cover. Since I ordered the clutch switch anyway, I may go ahead and replace it at a later date.

Thanks! great info, will try asap  

Installed mine today (V6 auto though). Spent about 8 minutes unscrewing, unplugging, re-plugging and re-screwing. Then I sat there for another 5 minutes trying to figure out what I had missed. The thing is, I didn't miss a thing. This install is easy! Thanks so much for the DIY mhadden!  

You stated you installed the CC on your V6, a couple of quick questions please. I have a 2000 Pre Runner V6 with A/T and want to install CC, are the part numbers at the beginning of this thread compatible with the V6 or just the 4 cylinder? Did you purchase the needed parts from a salvage yard, ebay or ??? Thank you for your time.  

No problem, glad I could help out:thumbup: It's a crock that Toyota doesn't offer it in some trims...especially a DC!  

Thanks for the info. I just got 07 regcab 2wd Auto and was wondering if same parts work for me.

Stupid Question but, um, cruise control

I've never seen cruise control on a stalk before. I've always had it as some buttons on the wheel itself. How exactly do I use this? (Haven't gotten there in my user manual yet). Help! (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

Turn it on by clicking the button on the outside of the "stalk," reach desired speed and then press the "stalk" downward and release.  
Thank you!

jdcollins5 said: ↑ Just to add to the above, you can pull the stalk toward you to disengage cruise or press on the brake. Then you can press the stalk upward to resume. Also, bumping the stalk downward decreases the cruise setpoint and bumping upward increases the setpoint 1 mpg at a time. Click to expand...

My favourite trick is trying to temporarily disable cruise with the stalk pull, but pulling the windshield washer stalk instead, which squirts the windshield and activates wipers

:mad:

Note: if your speed drops below 25mph it will lose your setting and resume will not work. My '97 Lexus loses it set speed if I get below 25mph, (very annoying) but the '10 Prius doesn't loose the setting even at a stop, the only way it loses memory is if cruise is turned off or turn the car off.

How do you know? It's an icon on the multifunction display -- sort of below the one that tells you the low beams are on. Looks like a round speedometer. When the speed has been set, another part of the display lights up ans says "set.". As with your old buttons, when you hold the wand up or down, the car will accekerate or decelerate until you let go.  
OK, whew. I cracked the code. Thanks guys!

Hiya does anyone know which is the correct part number to order for a cruise control stalk without trip on the wiper stalk please, I've been looking but mostly just kits for over 200 where has the genuine stalks new are available as little as 50. I've currently got 7e0953503 Da, I've found 7e0953507f but wanted to make sure it wasn't the wrong one. It's for a t6 eu5 If anyone can help It would be appreciated Really enjoying building the camper and would like to be able to say I've done it all Cheers

Depends if you have rear wash wipe ?  

No wash wipe on rear, just want basic front wiper stalk and cruise on the other, then I can fit non cruise multi function buttons. Cheers Dan

I have one available soon. I just need to find the same version with a rear wiper because I’ve added a tailgate.  

  • 11 Feb 2019

Which part number is yours? How much would you want? Cheers  

I'm not sure what part number mine is until I take it out. My PV is a T6 Euro5 Highline with cruise control on the LH stalk and just the front wiper on the right (no trip). The problem I have is finding the correct one now I've got the tailgate wiper. I've no idea on cost. If Pauly is reading this, if I send you a VIN number, can you look up a price for one new? Wiper Stalks  

That's great if you let me know, I've found a company selling what I need for for £63 New but not sure if it's correct for my van lol, goner ring tps today aswell Cheers  

ve cruise control stalk

I'm not sure what the PR codes are, but googling the part number of Pauly's I can see it's the one I need. I've found a German website selling it for €81 (£71) so I've emailed them to see if they can send it to UK. I'm open to silly offers on my old one or it will sit on the shelf in my garage for years. Edit, Postage to UK was €17.90  

Just for reference I can do them for about £90-95 delivered  

That’s cheaper than I expected @Pauly . Maybe after pay day when I recover from bills from lotus and a new kitchen.

Thanks for the help, little black flash I've messaged you Cheers

Mine will be coming off my T6 at the end of the month when I go MFSW. Sure I could undercut whatever you get quoted.
