Alright Ive seen this brought up in a few different threads but no one has really found an answer that I could find that is very clear, so I thought I would start a dedicated thread. I just did a T56 magnum xl swap in my 2011 GT
Heres what I know:
per JPC "The cruise control is a common problem. It has to do with whatever computer strategy code is. Each car is different and some have cruise work in odd gears. "
- Most guys on here seem to have it working in 4th or 6th, with the strategy on their car
- within the tune you should change the gearing to the new tremec you have purchased
What I would like to know....
1. If my tuner applies another cars strategy to my car that has the cruise control working shoould that theoretically fix the problem? (basically I assume this means get someones tune that it works on and go from there)
2. Are there any other variables that anyone is aware of that can affect the cruise control? (ie: improperly wired speedo box, reverse lockout solenoid, a fuse somewhere?)
Anyway, the purpose of this is trying to solve my problem, but also to make it easier to find this information for other guys as this seems to be a very common problem with the T56 magnum XL swap. Im going to be working with my tuner to try and answer some of these questions, but if you have these answers and would be willing to share. Please do! Cheers!
