Title: i30 Sportswagon - cruise control suddenly stopped working
Post by: Zedbees on November 29, 2022, 07:23:11

Cruise control suddenly stopped working today, then the brake lights wouldn't turn off once I got home. Discovered the brake switch had jammed. Don't know if this has fixed CC - what do I do if not?

I have a recurring issue of cruise control not working on my manual 2012 FD diesel i30cw.
It happens when I start the car and start driving without having pressed the foot brake.
A small tap on the foot brake starts it working for me.
I talked to the dealer about it years ago but they are incompetent at fixing anything so they didn't/couldn't/wouldn't fix it.

My understanding Hman is that is how it is supposed to work. You need to touch the brakes after starting before engaging cruise control.

Thank you.
You appear to know more about this than the dealer I used to deal with!
