ive heard thats a symptom of a vss thats going, but i dunno...

Does your speedometer work perfectly? Speedometer, odometer and cruise control problems have been common symptoms of a failing VSS (vehicle speed sensor). Does the cruise control switch light up?

Do you have an h22?. My c/c has not worked since my swap. I think I need to hook up a vac line. Maybe u should check the vacs?.

it's either, the switch, the wiring, a fuse or relay, the cruise control itself, a vaccum leak, or VSS. later.

Yep is it plugged in (stupid question but yea some people yanno) and are you using the c/c right?

[93hondalx]

well the cruise control button works. i mean it lights up and everything but when i push the button on my streering wheel, well it just doesnt work....i think i might have blow a fuse...does anyone have a manual where it shows you where each fuse goes..or atleast something that can show me where the cruise control fuse goes?..if i can just see if its that then i can try looking from there

[NAiL05]

Its either the under dash if not the fuses in your engine bay. I rarely use my cruise and threw mine out. But it should say on the cover which fuse is which and what amperage so you dont need a manual for it or shouldnt at least unless someone fucked with your cover.

Also; when I took my cc out to do some work, and then put it back in, I neglected to hook up the vacumme lines correctly, causing it to not function.

Replace your cc module under the dash. I have replaced mine twice in the last 20,000 miles and it fixed the problem both times.

Didn't work... I just tried on mine.

might be the c/c unit under the hood its self not pulling the throttle correctly or at all

[4th_gen]

i had come to notice that my c/c doesn't work neither. and also i see that some of you say it can ba a vaccum leak>??

if so can it trigger an engine light?

i have these symptoms too. (no c/c and a check engine light) but car runs fine. the previous owner did a motor swap from stock to stock obviously.

maybe he could have not connected something properly?
can someone explain to check for engine codes if possible??

ok to read error codes you (i'm doing this for 90-93 if you want a dif model just holla)

steps

1.Use a jumper wire to connect the two terminals of the service connector together.
2.Turn the ignition switch ON; the check engine light will display any stored codes by rhythmic flashing.

On 1990-95 Accord (except V-6) the codes are indicated as follows Codes 1 through 9 are indicated by a series of short flashes; two-digit codes use a long flash for the first digit followed by the appropriate number of short flashes. For example, Code 14 would be indicated by 1 long flash followed by 4 short flashes. Codes are separated by a pause between displays. Multiple codes are transmitted in an alternating pattern. For example, a code 3 and 14 would be displayed as 3 short flashes (for Code 3) followed by the separator pause, then 1 long flash and 4 short flashes (for Code 14)

here are the trouble codes for 90-93 accords

NOTE: In the event that a code is encountered which is not on the chart, re-count the number of flashes. If the code is truly wrong, it will be necessary to swap the ECU for a known-good unit and recheck

hope this helps/isnt to long
