Chanced speed control functions
Hi,
I want to chance/add the functions on the steeringwheel of my '93 E-150.
The "coast" button is now a deceleration-function, i want this to be chanced in the deactivate-function from the brake, of course without real braking and working stoplamps.
Is this possible with a resistor and a switch between the wires 133/151/6, like "resume" 2200 ohms.
Or wil it work by putting wire 6 against point 4 of the speed control servo, using a diode in 511 against feedback.
Then i must add a extra wire in the clockspring, but i think i can realise this, i have opened the clockspring already.
Or are there other possibilities.
The On/Off functions will be moved to the dashboard, and may be disapear completly when i can handle these functions automaticaly by the key-switch or so!
Who can tell me more about my idea's?
Please let me know!
Thanks,
Rudi

Welcome to FTE !
I cannot answer your questions but there are others who can, so hang in there for a while.
Your approach to personalizing your truck is quite different from the norm. Is there a specific purpose to these changes or are they just to be different?

Hello Al?
Yes, is a kind of personalizing my truck, reason is that i'm used to use a speed control in that way.
For my job i'll drive a kind of eighteenwheeler, DAF dutch brand and member of the Paccar group, within a few years you can order a DAF twin-turbo engine in a Peterbilt or Kenworth, they are doing roadtests right now, here in the Netherlands.
In this truck i can do all the functions of the speed control with switches on the steeringcolumn, this gives more comfort, i can hold my legs longer in a relaxed position.
Plus the stoplamps will not flash up, so there will be no unnesissary braking reaction from other traffic members.
To decelarate you don't need the brake's all the time, you can also let it roll out.
I hope that you can read through my english
and get my point.
Bye,
Rudi
