Cruise control issue solved

[shifterkart26]

Greetings all,
I don't know if this will help, but I have had CC issues for a while (actually a year). Sometimes it works, hit a bump it disengages etc. Found a crack in the rear brake switch, replaced it and thought I was done. Not so. It got worse to the point it wouldn't engage at all. So, off goes the bodywork and I did a complete inspection and tested every wire, switch and relay.

What I found was a little corrosion in the connector for the diode pack. It is located on the left side behind the lower vent duct. This diode pack hangs down from the wire loom and allows water to enter and sit with no way to drain (manufacturing flaw). After cleaning off the corrosion, ohming out each diode, applying dielectric grease and zip tying the pack in an upright position so water could no longer enter, It worked perfectly on a 500 mile test ride.

I hope this helps anyone that is chasing a CC ghost.
