Thanks all (especially you rsx_type_s) :-)
The cruise controll has been installed. Works fine.
Thanks alot for your help guys.

Now I'm the proud owner of the ONLY mazda 3 with cruise conrol in the whole country.

That's good to hear , glad it worked for you . Do you have Volume controls on your wheel as well ? As i have several of these left over from the installs i have done.

talr

Yes I have. (and hed before).
They are not really in use now, as I've changed the radio to an aftermarket.
But I alrerady know how to solve this, and hope in closest months the left pane of the wheel controls will be fully functional as well. :-)
Thanks again.
Tal.

Friends, I need help. I bought a OEM cruise for my M3 2007, 2.0, auto, in Canada (I live in Chile, South Am). I looked for all info regarding installation, and I proceeded. Everything looked fine, except for the little detail that the cruise is not working, even the panel light don't light up when on/off is press. Just light in the buttons at night. If any have an idea, it will be appreciated

OK , the install is normally a plug and play . New volume buttons ,cruise control buttons , steering wheel bolt & brake switch . If you have installed these correctly then all should work . Now if there are things missing , meaning wire harness, instrument cluster , relays , etc. do to the fact that the car may have never been set up for this option , you may be in for some troubles .

Hi
you mean that there is no need to have something changed in ECU software?
some of the cars requires to activate cruise control option in ECU. As I realized, it's only enough to install the switches and after installation of them on mazda3 the system will work ,I wonder if we have to do something with ECU.

Hi every body
I’ve faced with a problem for installing cruise control on my 2007 MAZDA3 and I kindly request you to help me. When I inspected the spiral cable inside steering wheel, I realized that although there are two pins for cruise control on it, but no wire comes out of its 12 pin connector which is located on the back of the steering column shroud. On the other hand, the Brown and White wires that normally comes out of the steering wheel and go to the ECU are missing. Does any body know which pin or pins of the ECU should be connected to which wire of cruise control switch and if it is neccessary to connect one of the cruise control wires to negative side of battery or somewhere.

What 'programming' needs to be done along with the control switch kit (BS3E-66-4M0) & brake switch (BN7N-66-490) installation on the 2010? Can it only be done by the dealer?

a laptop with mazda crap is required to enable the (speed function )

Yes I understood only the control interface has to be installed, as the throttle is electronic...

I installed cruise control on my 2004 Mazda 3. Everything functions properly but it seems to surge slightly as if it is hunting for the exact speed. Everything is OEM. I had the radio controls previously and was told it was a plug and play. Has anyone experienced this problem and how did you solve it.
