[QUOTE="rfulcher, post: 237938, member: 5085"] I finished installing my Audiovox cruise control last week on my 07 FJR-A. So far it sucks. On local roads under 60 mph is seems to work okay. If I get on the interstate it will hold at 80+ mph great for a few miles. Then it will start to cut off with even slight climbs. As time passes the speed at which it will engage and hold decreases even when the road is level. Eventually it gets pretty much useless. It will try to engage and then disengage. The control/power lights do not flicker and all work as they should. It goes from perfect to 5hit in less than 20 minutes of interstate. I am lost with this one. I did an Audiovox install on my Concours last year without any of this grief. To repeat---It works perfectly at first, even at high speeds, and the speed it will engage at and hold keeps dropping as time passes. I installed everything using the posts on this and other forums. Pretty standard install. I am using all 4 vacuum ports with 4 check valves and the audiovox vacuum canister. I have tried different combinations of vacuum ports with little change. I grounded the brake cut off system to eliminate this as a problem source. Blue wire to the coil on the right Power lead to blue connector switched hot wire under left fairing. I used posi-tap connectors Tomorrow I will verify connections or try alternate connections sites. Will also check vacuum system again. Where else can the blue wire be connected?? This is a major problem since everything works so well when I test at home. The problem only shows after a while on the road at speed. HELP!!! I am lost with this one. I did an Audiovox install on my Concours last year without any of this grief. Ross [/QUOTE]
