Does anyone know of someone that can repair a cruise control kit. BBF installed mine years ago and it has stop working. I'M getting power to the unit but it won't engage. Any help will be great full.
What cruise control unit do you have? The reason that I'm asking is that I may have an Audiovox CC-100 that still works.
I have copied and pasted the post that I have placed on the General Board and the Texas Chapter below that hopefully describes what I have.
I may have a working Audiovox CC-100 cruise control unit if somebody wants it or needs it for parts. Honestly, I can’t promise that it works, but I’ll do my best to describe the issue with it below; however, I’m now leaning to the fact that there’s a good chance that it does in fact still work.
My cruise control (the Audiovox) stopped working about a year ago. It had power to the unit and you could feel a clicking in the servo when activated, but for whatever reason, wouldn't work. Given that it had been on the bike for nine years, I assumed that it had simply died. Seeing that I can’t live without cruise, and because the Audiovox CC-100 is no longer available, I decided to replace it with a Rostra unit.
Fast forward to yesterday, I started replacing the Audiovox unit with a new Rostra unit that I had previously purchased. When I removed the air box, the first thing that I noticed was that the cable loop that was attached to the throttle linkage was broken. Obviously, there’s no way it could have worked with the broken cable, so unless there were two separate issues with the unit, this was most likely the reason it had stopped working.
I had replaced all of the cheap Chinese vacuum check valves which are notorious about breaking in half where they’re glued together (I’m guessing because of the heat) as well as the vacuum lines with much higher quality parts (AC Delco check valves) shortly before it stopped working. it’s very possible that as I was pulling the new vacuum hoses, I could have caught one on the cable loop and caused the problem.
Anyway, because I already have the Rostra unit along with everything else, I need, I’m not going to bother trying to fix the cable loop on the Audiovox to see if that’s actually the problem, so if someone wants to add cruise control their bike and is willing to gamble on the fact that it’s very possible that it still work, or may need the parts, you’re welcome to it.
All I ask is that you pay the shipping. I’ll even throw in new vacuum check valves, vacuum hoses and the vacuum canister that I had made for it.
