why is my Genesis G70 cruise control not working

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather necessary tools and parts.
• Disconnect the battery to ensure safety while working on the electrical components.
• Tools Required: OBD-II scanner, multimeter, socket set, torque wrench.

2. Inspect Brake Pedal Switch

• Locate the brake pedal switch, usually situated above the brake pedal arm.
• Disconnect the electrical connector from the switch.
• Use a multimeter to test for continuity while pressing the brake pedal. The switch should show continuity when pressed.
• If faulty, remove the switch by unbolting it and replace it with a new one.
• Reconnect the electrical connector and recheck functionality.

3. Check and Replace Fuse

• Identify the fuse box location and remove the cover.
• Locate the cruise control fuse and check for continuity using a multimeter.
• If the fuse is blown, replace it with one of the same amperage.
• Reassemble the fuse box and check if the cruise control functions properly.

4. Inspect Cruise Control Module

• Locate the cruise control module, typically found within the engine compartment or under the dashboard.
• Disconnect the electrical connectors and visually inspect for any damage or corrosion.
• Clean the connections if corroded and ensure they are securely reconnected.
• If the module is faulty, replace it with a new unit and ensure it is properly secured.

5. Reconnect Battery and Verify

• After completing repairs, reconnect the battery terminals.
• Ensure all tools are removed from the engine bay and close the hood.
