[Healeys] Cruise Control on a 1965 3000

Wed May 1 11:47:12 MDT 2019

The Rostra number is 250-4153 speed generator   Then you will need to find the location you want it installed in the speedo cable, Then you will need to have a custom speedo cable made to install the unit.

David:

Where do I get a speedometer transducer, and where would it be installed?  I couldn't find anything on the Rostra site.

  We have install several of the Rostra units. There are several things that we found are a must
      1     Use a speedo transducer for the speed pick up not the magnetic pick up.
      2     Install a relay for the brake light switch
      3     Install a relay for the Engage light
      4     Switchs on a couple of cars have been      3  4  8  On    and 1-2  5-7  9-12 Off

  I installed this unit a few years ago. It’s not like a new car but it’s pretty good.  

  I tried the magnets but had little luck so I went to the 250-4165 signal generator which really improved performance. I also installed the 250-3592 switch in the ashtray.  I used two relays. One for the engagement light and a second for the brake lights. 

  As for the settings, I started with 2&8 on with the rest off. I have notes telling me of changes and results (all bad) but I can’t find where my final set up is unless I pull the unit. Hopefully someone else has the info for you. 

  Good luck. Once you have it in and programmed, you’re going to like it.

    Hi,
    Some time ago my Audiovox CCS-100 100 vacuum Cruise Contol stopped working, even with it was working it didn't work all that well. 
    I am changing over to a Rostra Global Cruise Universal Cruise Control (250-1223). 
    My plan is to keep the control switches and pick-up magnets on the drive shaft. 

    Any anyone installed a GlobalCruise (250-1223) unit and would you know/remember how the 12 switch settings need to be set to?

    thanks in advance,
