Cruise control problem - FIXED!!
After I put my fairing on last week, my Audiovox CCS100 cruise control system ceased to function. It was working fine prior to installing the fairing. Since I had to run some wiring under the gas tank, my first thought was I had pinched a vacuum hose or maybe tightened a zip tie too tight and closed it off.
Today I pulled the tank, checked the vacuum hoses for kinks or pinching and found nothing unusual. My control panel switches work fine, which I verified by checking the voltages at the 10-pin connector on the servo unit. Everything checked out according to the troubleshooting page in the Audiovox manual. I hooked my Mighty-Vac up to the nipple on the servo and pumped it to 15 in/hg and it held the vacuum pressure just fine. I hooked the vacuum line going to the servo to the Mighty-Vac and it seems to be drawing a consistent amount of vacuum, increasing with the more throttle I give it. So far, everything I have checked appears to be okay, so it looks like my problem may be mechanical, ie: the throttle cable from the servo unit itself. I was kind of hoping that pumping the Mighty-Vac while connected to the servo would pull the throttle cable, but I don't know if that's how it's supposed to work. It was just a SWAG (scientific wild-a$$ guess). Anybody else have any suggestions?
