Having issues with setting the cruise and can’t locate a troubleshooting for it,did find a troubleshooting for 1500 but it shows the cruise test block under the seat but that’s not on the SE model.
When the switch is turned on both the cruise light and cruise set comes on and cruise set goes of in a few seconds but cruise set will not set,I’ve done the lubercation on the right handlebar cluster and all three brake switches are clicking but I haven’t physically checked them to see if they are operational.
Is there a troubleshooting guide for the SE?
The SE and Aspencade are the same.
Try taking the bike for a ride and hold the clutch lever forward while setting the cruise to see if that switch is the issue. This is the most common issue but usually won't set at all. Does it have a uniform failure pattern, like it sets and 2 seconds later it cuts off each and every time. Or might it go 2 seconds one time then 5 seconds the next time etc.
Also try pushing the brake lever ahead and try to set. Lift the brake pedal with your toe and try to set.
Of Course the speedometer must be working. Did you try 4th gear over 35 MPH? Can.t have LED for set light?
I have an ongoing problem with my 2000 SE. I live with it, but haven't been able to fix it. The problem is my front brake lever doesn't come out far enough by itself, to engage the switch that disengages the cruise. Anytime I can't get the cruise to set, I just move the front brake lever out with my finger and it will set. Either of the handlebar levers and the foot brake will have a switch on them to disengage the cruise, so any of them could be the problem.
Thanks guys,the cruise set ( but does come on when the key is turned on) doesn’t illuminat at all,I checked the bushings already,,moved the relays around in the holder on the left side
The hand lever has a double microswitch. You should hear two distinct clicks. The foot brake has two separate switches. You should also hear two clicks. The foot brake light switch is above the MC. The cruise switch is, ?? memory, below the MC and very hard to access.
This jumping back and forth is hard. Have to be patient. If you click above you should see terminal #3 is set switch. That is wire color white/yellow. At the connector if you push the set button you should have contiuity from the black/yellow to the white/yellow.
Redwing,here’s the instructionsI had found but I couldn’t locate the connector until I watched the video above,I think it’s where you are leading me too.
You could be right Tex. I have eye issues and cant read you scanned document. I'll do a couple of more tests to keep you busy and say when I am leaving.
It says if there’s 95 ohms then the relay is good so if there’s none the relay is good,I didn’t have this issue until I replaced the locator light lights relay.
Not sure what you mean. You can check all the brake switches at once by seeing if you have 12 volts on the Brn/red, The brn red should be hot with key on no levers or brakes pulled. Just cruising down the highway.
Go back to post number 34 and do that test, It tests all the NC safety switches at once, If you do NOT have 12 volts on the brn/red the cruise will not set.
