In setting mine up it would cut out around 60kms from memory.

Try taking off a magnet!!

I currently run with 1 magnet and the wire cut, and it has held speeds from 50 to 120 (furthest I've tried)

I had exact problem when installing AP60 on my car. If you are lucky, you can probably get away with just cutting the black wire, as it halves the number of cycles the computer is monitoring. Will be a treat after that. It is a good cruise control for the price.

If you take off one magnet, replace it with a bit of steel about the same weight to maintain balance of the shaft. I used a bit of flat iron, filed a couple of grooves to take the wire tie, then spread araldite over the wire and magnet/steel. Never comes off again.
