    Default STS cruise

    there was a thread on how to mod the switch housing but I cant find it so I will tell everyone what I did to get the cruise working on my wifes 2013 sts . I replaced the right hand switch housing with a RT housing and it works Awesome. the can am uses electronics' for cruise and NOT Cables so the computer thinks its supposed to be there. again I did not mod the switch I just replaced it. it only requires you to remove the right switch housing, remove the plastic bottom cover from the handle bar and right side upper panel, mirror, and the upper panel at the frunk unplug the throttle wire and replace it with the new one .. took me 30 minuets start to finish

    For the ST at least, you can take the right hand switch apart, remove the "dummy" switch and replace with the working switch from the new donor assembly. The black piece in my hand is all that needs to be changed. The white rectangle above my hand is the actual Cruise Control electronic switch. It was already on my non cruise ST.
    So...the cruise is already on your ST. The dummy switch merely prevents you from using the cruise.
