I have had it fitted for quite a few years now and the contacts may have changed.

Hi,
Quoting from the book for the diagnostic mode:
Your AP50 cruise control comes with a self test mode. the round red LED on the grey electronic module indicates al function inputs.
To enter diagnostic mode, turn the ignition switch on with the cruise control ON/OFF switch in the OFF position. Now hold the SET button down while turning the cruise control ON/OFF switch to ON.
Your cruise control is now in diagnostic mode. The red LED will light up showing correct connections in the following steps:
1. Depressing the SET key
2. Depressing the Resume key
3. Depressing the brake pedal
4. Driving on the road, the LED will flash ON/OFF once per second.
(I put the wagon up on stands to do this last test)

Once in diagnostic mode, the actuator function can be checked. To do this, start the engine. Tap the SET button about 10-15 times. (you should hear the solenoid clicking in the servo) The revs should rise as the cruise control pull in. The revs should now be steady. Tapping the RES/DEC key will reduce the revs. Now tap the brake pedal, the revs should drop to idle.
To exit diagnostic mode, turn the cruise control ON/OFF switch to the OFF position.

Hope this helps. There is also a trouble shooting guide, too much to include here. If you want a scanned copy emailed, drop me a line on gezza90 at tpg dot com dot au
Good luck...

Mine stopped working once too. The problem was the switch I had fitted to the clutch pedal, it had moved a little. Readjusting it made the unit fully operational again.

Check the brake and clutch switches ( if fitted) first, then see if all the magnets are still present on the tail shaft flange, lastly check the vacuum hose connection and the attachment of the throttle cable actuator.

If it just stopped suddenly its most likely one of the above.

Good luck in finding the problem.
