Ford Plug Connections For Diy Cruise Control

[james125]

Hello all

I was thinking of making a cruise control system for my ford Fusion. Not a system that would actually follow a set speed but it would set a constant pedal voltage. In theory it's simple enough, all you need is one input 0-5v and another from 0-2.5v. I was also thinking of incorporating a latching relay to turn off the system if the brake switch is activated.

I was originally just going to splice into the existing cables that are there. However I think it would be much neater if it was possible to buy the male & female connectors for the accelerator & brake pedal and connect a wire that way. Does anyone know if you can buy the connectors from somewhere?

Thanks

not to my knowledge, though some manufacturers of aftermarket cruise control systems may manufacture these, I dont know of any modification / adapters you can use.

Did the Fusion come with Cruise? I would presume at least one variant did, in which case you might be able to retrofit it without the need to meddle with the pedal!

Thanks jeebowhite. I've just taken a look in my haynes manual and it doesn't say anything about it. I'll look into it with more detail before I do anything.

The fusion was grown from the fiesta. As far as I no none of them all all have cruise control
