hi guys,
for several weeks i have been searching the net and trying to make a cruise control for my Fiat Bravo 1.9 JTD 1999. Having no luck so far i decided maybe there is someone here who can help me :) I have tried 2 schematics already but none of them have worked. Also if anyone can tell me exactly how the stock CC works? (when its active, what to press to activate, for how long under what conditions...). Here are the things i have tried (found them in the Bulgarian fiat forum) but the guys there were not getting progress either. Any help will be appreciated :)

ecu needs to be prox-ialigned to 'learn' the presence of the cruise control

you also need to have a clutch switch in place which often isn't present if you don't have cruise control

there are companies who offer an after market can-bus friendly cruise control system

ok the proxy-alignment is something i think i can do by myself with Fiat Ecu Scan. What switch are you talking about and should i connect it whit ECU and where? The problem with the companies is that i don't have such in my region.... else would be more than happy to pay them some cash instead of wasting all that time trying to do it myself.
 
Do you have electronic throttle (fly by wire) this is essential in getting this type of cruise control to work

then you'll need clutch & brake switches. and finally the proper steering wheel/column controls with which to activate and control the system. also you'll need the dash light to be present to see if the system is activating, this may also require connection to the body computer.

in proxialignment you will quite simply never get the cruise control to work if the ECU don't have the software installed to recognise it, your car being an early JTD it might be operating on an early program that doesn't have a cruise control element.

one final problem is that cruise control on the 1.9 is a bit rubbish it doesn't work half the time on my Punto 1.9 which is why i suggested an after market system, if you don't have flyby wire controls then it makes an aftermarket system very simple

it has electronic gas pedal. i don't know about the clutch and brake switches... how can i check? no light on dash too.. I know exactly how to make a separate CPU to manage it so i can make my own cruise... the thing is i would love to use the original ECU of the car if possible :) or changing the ecu's software if possible ... :)
