View Full Version : OEM Cruise Control Wiring (ASCD)

I'm going to post this up here, cause I need some help.

Bought a shell from someone off here. When they put in their aftermarket steering wheel, they ripped out all of the cruise control wiring and 90% of the Airbag wiring. I know some of the SRS Wiring has the cruise control embedded into it. But what wires, I don't know this is where I need the help.

My parts car, I have EVERYTHING needed to put this back into my shell (yes it was a CC car). I'm leaving the aftermarket wheel in the car, just going to be adding my oem switches to the car and the supported wiring. Please, don't tell me "Check the FSM". I have. And I can't read wiring schematics for anything, it might as well be wrote in ancient San script.

Here is where I am stuck. I pulled the steering wheel from my donor. I know I only need the Green, Blue, and Brown wires. These wires along with the Yellow and White wires come out of the SRS Ring into the SRS wiring harness.

I'm assuming, that I can just take the SRS harness from the steering colum that runs across the top of the radio, then branches off three ways. One to the passenger airbag connection, another branches down to the connection plug around the OBD port, and the other goes to the SRS control box under the rear seat. The plug that it connects to beside the OBD port is still there, along with its supported wiring (which is I'm assuming where the cruise wiring goes into the main harness).

Can I just take SRS harness from the steering wheel to the next connection (plug beside the OBD port), strip away the wires that aren't needed, plug it up and be good to go? This is just what I'm assuming, acording to logical thinking. But I don't know if it imbeded into everything more that I can just see with the naked eye. I don't want to hack up the SRS harness, until I know for sure that this will work properly.

Yes. I've built a ton of delete harnesses using the SRS harness and just cutting out the passenger and main unit wiring. It works fine.

Thanks RDM. Do you by chance know which color wires I'll need to use when it comes down to the harness after I delete the passenger and main unit wiring? I don't think I'm going to even worry about the SRS ring for the wheel, as I'm going to mount my controls somewhere else. I'm just assuming that I'll snip the wires off the ring and connect color to color, right?

I'm sorry for my ignorance on this, but I'm one of those people that I want to know it'll be right before I hack it up and then have to do it a 2nd or 3rd time. 1st time is always the best.

IIRC they're all green of some form. I'm drunk right now so I can't verify it.
