we have sold a few cruise kits to suit BA,s we tell the people who buy them to fit it themselves and then take it to ford and say my cruise has never worked and someone suggested it may not have been enabled. works every time

You're EL will. (I spose any cable controlled throttle will) I was cruise on the highway one day (not so long ago), and felt something tickling the hairs on my big toe (barefoot), it was the accellerator pedal, as we hit a hill, the cruise stomped the loud pedal, and it moved. Now I wonder if it had floored it, if I would've lost a toe or not?!?!

Both the cruise on my old EA and my EL pull the pedal down when accelerating. It doesn't return to the top position, how could it, when the cruise cable pulls the throttle lever it also pulls on the accelerator cable therefore pulling the pedal down towards the floor.

Hi guys its my first post
If you have an 04 model territory it does need to be activated by ford which can be done for as little as $80.00. If like me you have an 05 model its plug and play. So do as I did and get a set of switches from a wrecker for $120.00 and away u go.... Cheers Baron |

Just an update, I already had the brake switches in my 07 territory it has a black one and a blue/white one. I fitted the buttons and everything is hooked up, but still no cruise control, nothing comes up on the cluster when i press the cruise buttons. Got quoted from 3 different ford dealers all around $150 to press the button on the computer to activate the cruise control. Im really shocked they didnt charge me an arm and leg just to tell me they need to push a button
