i dont know if this is gonna answer for you but i know for a few weeks i thought my cruise control wasnt working but then after a few trial & errors i found out that my left foot was BARELY touching the clutch so it made the cruise control inactive......... I'm stupid lmao!

Just take it to a mechanic or the dealership if you don't know where the fuse is your best bet would just to let a professional do it.

kenchan 10-09-2008 03:51 PM

plus, i think you're still under warranty? :)

Do you have LED tail lights?

If you have any CEL of any kind, usually the cruise won't work.

Also, if the fuse was out, he wouldn't get the "cruise main" light.

Faulty ECU? It still could be possible that another fuse would used to provide the set point.

polaski 11-01-2008 09:55 PM

You could do what I did and put 69k miles on a civic without working cruise :rolleyes:

Well if yours is USDM ... there is no cruise fuse. The DBW, remember? The ECU controls the throttle body ALL the time, just when you put it in cruise it ignores the go pedal and relies on the speedo input.

Something in your setup is making the ECU unhappy.

edit: aah mitsketa. British Colombia. That's still DBW isn't it?

Having a turbo voids warranty on the cruise control parts?
Have you at least tried to take it in?

My very first thought. I would guess that the answer is 'Yes'.

Fit of RAGE 11-12-2008 09:06 AM

IIRC, certain LED tail lights will cause the cruise to stop working. In essence, the system thinks that the brakes are applied and shuts off the cruise. The solution is to install a diode on the hot lead so the voltage will only flow in one direction... I'm certain that there is something about it on this forum or Honda-tech somewhere. In any case, I've read about this complaint in conjunction with LED tail lights on more than one occasion.

i had led tails before and it works fine....
