Default Cruise Control w/APR chipped ECU...won't resume/increment speed anymore (m)

When I hit the switch that is supposed to resume/increment it doesn't work anymore. Sometimes, it will increase speed when held, but when released it's disengaging cruise control. If cruise is set and I 'bump' the switch to increase speed it disengages cruise.

Anybody else?
Should I reset the ECU (or call APR)?

I realize it could be the switches themselves, but I would like to find out if this is a problem that someone else has seen and has the solution to.

Thanks for the help,
Steve

Default Cruise must be re-enabled after installing a new ECU with a VAG tool. (m)

That's the reason why I bought the software when I did. I use cruise just about everywhere.

I'm pretty far away from you (live in Sachse, work in Richardson), but if you can't find anybody closer you can come by and we can turn it on (if that is the problem).

Default Cruise works. Just a function in it doesn't. Worked for 6800 miles after ECU swap w/o VAGing it.

I use cruise everywhere also. It's the only way to keep from getting a ticket in this car! It really wants to go fast.

I hope my response doesn't seem harsh (in the title line). Those are just the facts for my case.

Thanks,
Steve

Did you try swapping the old ECU back in?
