    Should be 2 presses of the button to hold a speed first time then just press once think its over 20mph. there have been some that have needed a software update from what I have been hearing. If it doesn`t work take back to shop you might even need new buttons.

    Never heard the need to activate it, as was said, one press of the button turns it on, the second press sets the speed.

    You normally have to be in 3rd gear (I think) and travelling faster than 20 mph for it to work. If it worked before then I would go back to the Stealer and tell him to sort out whatever he did to stop it working.

    Yes, I fixed.
    1) turn ignition on
    2)press front brake and release.
    3)press rear brake and release.
    4)press clutch and release.
    5)turn accelerator all the way to the front ( not like accelerating, but to the other side, this is use to cancel the cruise control when is on
    6) press once the cruise control bottom on your left...and you’re ready.

    Wish you luck

    Sadly, this didn't work for me. Maybe I pressed the levers too fast or too slowly, or maybe it is broken. Thank you anyways! You were very helpful!

    Yes I did, and I tried to leave it in "upmost" position while pressing the cruise control, as well as letting it go before pressing the CC. Should there be some indication that the reset happened? Any light at all? Thank you for your help!

    Hello all,

    Just had the same issue. I used the reset sequence above and it worked first time. For those having problems, I noticed a small amount of play when I forced the throttle closed, so I clearly isn’t just a case of letting the throttle off, you need to twist it closed with a little bit of force.

    Gary.
