[QUOTE="Alex, post: 251653, member: 218"] Well I’ve been using the Cruise for a few hundred more miles on my install. First off, I'm the guy that routed the cable along with the stock throttle pull cable, so I KNOW that is not the issuse. There is no binding or possibility of it binding. (I haven't had the bike apart with the camera handy to take pictures lately, but I'll post them) 2nd, I'm definitely now thinking that I'm not getting a clear reading from the coil. I've done all the above testing, and replaced the entire servo. One thing that I found while doing the install was the fact that the instructions printed from this forum had the grey w/red stripe wire on the wrong side of the coil pack. Now keep in mind that I had 3 new 07's in my garage at the time. All bikes were configured this way. I initially hooked up the CC to the exact same spot as the pictures, and then went for a ride. It would briefly accelerate when I hit accel, but never hold any speed. I then tried throwing a volt meter on it, but both sides of the coil read +, and same for each coil. I then hooked it to the other side of the coil (can't remember the color of the wire) and the cruise worked fine.......for 20 miles. I think that the bike must be making some adjustments of the coil output after running for some time. This is the only thing I can think would be the problem. [/QUOTE]
