Rostra Cruise Problems
 

Hi all. I am installing a CC module on my 82 k20 with a 1999 Vortec 454 and 4l80e. It will not work at all. Pulling my hair out. I have ran through the diagnostic on the module and it passes every test. I have it set for 4k ppm. The model number of mine is 59D-05253. Please help! Thanks.

I do not have a Rostra but I have been reading up on them because I would like to install one with my electronic speedo and gps sensor. Where did you derive the the 4000 ppm from, is that just standard?

I read online that the 99’s used a 4000ppm vss.

I've emailed them before and found them to be very responsive and helpful.

As with all electronic devices you might just have a lousy unit right from the factory, despite the diagnostics. If that's the case, best to find out now.

Well i got it working, your question on pulse count made me dig deeper. Turns out that vss i have cranks out way more than just 4,000 ppm. I calculated it out and determined that I needed a different source. Luckily my Howell efi harness and ecu has a speedo output, which is a conditioned square wave DC 4000ppm. Hooked up to that, set dip switches on the cc unit accordingly, and imagine that, works just fine now.

That's great! Very satisfying to solve any kind of electrical or programming problem.
