Activating cruise control C5

Unread post by garrydog »

My car is a Citroen C5 2.0 HDI 2004.I have got and fitted the CC stalk , I have bought a Lexia 3, I have tried the Lexia on the car today all working well. On the Lexia the cruise control is switched on in the BSI ( I think )and i can see the C.C switch working on the Lexia ,I have been out and tested the C C but it is not working.
I think that the C C is not turned on in the ECU ,can anyone point me in the right direction to the relevant section on the Lexia to turn the C C on if it is present .
Thanks.

I always end up using trial and error, but I think you will need to go into injection ecu config and tell it the car has cruise

It turns out you only need to enable it in the Injection ECU. I think the trick is that you have to let the car go to sleep after you have done it, i.e. lock it and go have a cup of tea. Come back and it works !!! :)

There are two stages to enabling cruise, in the Injection ECU set 'RVV' to present then go into the BSI and enable cruise.

If you run the diagnostics operation, when the process is complete click on the injection topic, in there go to configuration and you will see a selection for cruise control.

Its a while since I did mine as it was on my previous C5, it took me a while to find it in the menus at first but that is roughly how its done.
