cruise control removal
« on: June 16, 2012, 10:13:41 PM »
there is a blue box with a cicuit board inside of it stuffed in the dash of the driver side.  i traced the wires and it seems to be cruise control that i didnt know was in the car. there were no controls for cruise i could find so i think it had been cut out at some point.  does anyone know if i can just pull all of that stuff out without screwing something up.  i couldn't find anywhere that i was wired into a critical system.  im hopoing that this is one more item that i can eliminate from under the hood to simplify things..

Won't hurt a thing if you pull it.  The controls are on the turn signal stalk, a button on the end and a slide button on the front.  The control under the hood looks like a vacuum canister and is connected to the vacuum canister on the passenger side.  It's mounted under the 3relays behind the shock tower.

thanks i didnt think it would but i thought i would just check.  there are no controls for it so the previous owner must have broken it and removed the controls or something.  the rat nest is dwindling.
