AP 50 Cruise control update

A big thank you to those who gave constructive advise about my newly installed cruise control!
It is working fine now, cutting the black wire loop did the trick.

I have tested it at 80kmh, where it drove much better than I could hold a speed :-0.
I will test it at 100kmh tomorrow on the freeway. It starts to cut in around 50 kmh but I will never use it a that speed, nor likely will at over 100 kmh.

This cruise control will be very welcomed at an upcoming trip across the Nullarbor, towing a big boat. No more right knee cramps :-)

I learned a few things which I like to pass on. It is not necessary to start the engine in diagnostic test 'B'. I had the command module mounted on the far right of the dash. Turning on the ignition, I could reach through the window and toggle the SET button while watching the linkage of the vacuum actuator under the bonnet.
It advances one 'click' at each press of the button. What it also does, and the manual does not say so, is to advance in a rapid series of 'clicks' if the SET button is held down. No engine racket to find that one out :-).

I had stuck the magnets on with araldite. Brushed and scraped the area (Universal joint flange rim, at the transfer box output shaft) first to bare metal and then wiped it clean with acetone. Stuck on two magnets, they did not come off at 110 kmh, just overnight cured araldite holding them. The magnets are wired on as well now, just to be sure.
I find it silly to suggest just fitting one magnet, they should supply a dummy weight then, to keep the shaft balanced.
Anyway, the trick with sticking magnets on is proper surface preparation.

I am happy now with my AP 50 cruise control. It works fine and is perfectly adequate for a 15 year old troopie;-).
