Cruise control issue

[JHS]

On a trip down to Cornwall just before Xmas, I engaged CC only to have it kick out after a few seconds. Thinking that it was just a glitch, I tried it a few times more, but it still kicked out.
It had functioned faultlessly until then.
Has anyone had this issue or could suggest a remedy? My instinct is towards the Aux battery?

Bump!
Shirley I can't be the only victim?

Do you have staggered wheels, worn tyres, did it disengaged regarles speed... could be speed sensor, accelerator sensor or brake light sesor fault too. Needs live data.

I guess that you haven’t changed the wheel size. Better to get the codes read when you can as could be a few things as above… enjoy Cornwalll.

JHS, did you resolve this? For the last month or so, mine keeps kicking cruise off at normal speeds. Sometimes it will work OK for a couple of miles, but then warning chime and it switches off.

Yes, it was a simply a wheel mismatch. Embarrassment refuses to let me go further than that.

Could be as simple as worn tyres at one end.
Or a failing speed sensor. Best to get the codes read.

A bit remiss of me, but I should have put an update on. The situation was resolved by replacing the O/S/F wheel bearing. It has a built-in speed sensor which becomes out of tolerance when there is more movement in the bearing. The problem started with cruise dropping off and went on to ABS failure, all linked to the speed sensor. Relatively cheap repair and all works now
