Yes, you need to email Pat at Gap Diagnostics and request the extra functions if you haven’t got them. He usually responds very quickly in my experience. He will probably make you aware that you should not modify any of the critical vehicle safety features as the full access gives you the ability to change almost everything in the CCF.

I think you will need to set all the settings before trying to use it as the collision mitigation is what it needs to apply the brakes if you catch up another car. I calibrated mine once all settings were made. For some reason, mine wouldn’t accept the collision mitigation Gen 1 option and always defaulted to Gen 2 when I saved the settings but it all works absolutely fine. You will also be able to enable/disable the forward assist warning, if you want it, by using the normal dashboard menu using the right hand steering wheel menu controls.

Is there a definitive post that outlines what’s needed for this or a case of pulling it together from the previous pages I’m this thread?

I found a seller in the USA that has lots of these Adaptive cruise control units as New/ old stock and seems to have sold quite a few. I have purchased one myself as I with to enable this feature on my 2010 FFRR. The modules seem to be at a very attractive price.

I found a youtube video of an owner in the EU that carried out the retrofit/conversion. You need to enable closed captions to understand what he says though.

Maybe a naive question but with this system activated, does it have any automatic emergency braking functions in addition to the cruise control? Ie driving with cruise off? |
