Ok, I've been trying to diagnose off and on for nearly a year now why my manual-to-auto swapped 03 does not have cruise control (manual VB , no PCM ). I've read the speed control section of the 03 FSM, but have basically only learned that:
- diesel equipped with manual trans has an all-electronic cruise control via ECM
- diesel equipped with auto trans has the vacuum pump, servo, solenoid, etc. system controlled by the PCM .
It appears to me, then, that if I have a modified ECM file from Smarty that makes my truck 'think' its an auto, there is no way the cruise will operate since the ECM would be looking for a nonexistent PCM to control the vacuum servo. Is this correct? Or is there some knowledge from Smarty that I am missing?
Aside from my confusion above, what I've done so far to diagnose not having cruise:
- the cruise light illuminates on the gauge cluster when I hit the switch.
- verified that the brake light switch is good.
- confirmed VIN# on Smarty matches truck VIN.
- diesel equipped with manual trans has an all-electronic cruise control via ECM
- diesel equipped with auto trans has the vacuum pump, servo, solenoid, etc. system controlled by the PCM .
