Title: 35amp upgrade kit, cruise control question
Post by: rjp on July 15, 2023, 12:15:17 PM
After 12,747 miles on my Rover ST1, the original controller quit working. I installed the Bolton 35amp. upgrade kit and I'm back on the rode again.  There's suppose to be a cruise control option with this upgrade, but I don't know how to activate it. I have C7 set at 1 for cruise on. The instructions I found online from Big Game Bikes states that if this feature is activated, holding the up arrow button when riding will set the cruise control at your current speed. When I try that, all that happens is my lights turn on or off. Can anyone help me get this feature working. I called Area 51 and they said they would get back to me but it hasn't happened in the last 3 days. I hope someone here can help me out. Thanks in advance

It's the down arrow.

Here's a link to a more in-depth manual for those controllers, in case you don't have it.  Cruise control is on page 10, FWIW.  It's somewhat Chinglish, but still comprehensible ... mostly.
