Custom Cruise III - Delayed Engagement Feature

Bulletin: 86-9-3

Date: Nov.. '85

Ref. No.: 86-033-9
SUBJECT: CUSTOM CRUISE III DELAYED ENGAGEMENT

MODELS AFFECTED: ALL 1984, 85 & 86 MODELS WITH CUSTOM CRUISE III


The Custom Cruise III system contains a built in delay feature when it is first turned on. Specifically, with this system, only after the multi-function lever switch has been in the 'on' position for approximately one to two seconds will the cruise control system engage -- with depression of the set/coast button.

This built in delay could be mis-diagnosed as a malfunctioning cruise control system.
