Thank you again for this video. Success on my 2006 E-150. I also had 3 Ford dealerships and the salvage yard tell me this would not work. So relieved when it worked and much better on the long trips. The salvage guys showed me the trick of removing the wheel by banging all around it till it's loose. Important to keep the bolt in there loose so as to not pull it off fast and damage cables. Hard to find those steering wheels nowadays. I have an extra well-worn one from an 05 with cruise if someone needs one. Removing the ignition cylinder was needed as it make taking the cover off much easier and the clockspring has a connecter for the ignition. Good luck to other crazy people.
You should mention on your video that if you are planning on installing cruise on your Ford van's that one should call a dealership and talk to the parts manager to see if your van is capable of having a steering wheel cruise control installed! It would have saved me over three hundred dollars, and I would have known that my van would not be capable of having the steering wheel cruise system! I finally figured out that I will have to purchase the Rostra cruise control system for the same amount of money and time I wasted!
Just did the modification and its amazing thank you for the walkthrough I should have done one myself only takes about an hour to do the swap I just went to ford in bought a new steering wheel in clock Spring I also bought switches but apparently the steering wheel came with them so going to get my 60 bucks back tomorrow I would have bought a used steering wheel but all the wrecking yards were out of stock price is about $400 to buy everything new plus the Flash at a 120 Once again thanks for the walk through
Just completed this mod today. New steering wheel only cost $50 on ebay; the most expensive item was the clock spring (over $100). Caveat: don't buy a gear puller from the auto parts store. Chances are it won't be up to the task. I wound up ordering a heavy duty one off Amazon and it did the job. Took it to the dealer for brake work and told them, "oh, by the way, the cruise control quit working recently." The service advisor called the next day and told me the brake work was done and the cruise control was now working. "It was never programmed properly into the computer," he said. Labor on the CC portion was $159. Another caveat: before taking it to the dealer I made sure my truck had a cruise control kill switch on the master cylinder. Thanks for this.
Where is the wiring to plug into the master cylinder? I see two empty plugs laying like down under the master cylinder on the wheel well is one of them it?don’t look right. Thanks
@@theidesofmarch314 I didn't have to do anything with the master cylinder aside from verifying that Ford installed a cruise control kill switch during manufacture. The only wires I had to mess with were the ones that came with the replacement steering wheel and the airbag. The brake work I referenced was actually a totally separate problem having to do with machining the rear rotors. Good luck to you.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!! My 2006 E-350 doesn't have cruise, and I was dreading the long road trips. I just ordered a cruise steering wheel and new clock spring. I'll use your vid as my guide.
Better check your vin number! I have a e-250 2011 and went and bought and installed new clock spring and steering wheel with cruise buttons, only to find out that my van was never wired for cruise!
Just did this on my 2007 E350/ Went to my local pull a apart got the steering wheel and clock spring from same donor vehicle, went to Ford Dealership and tried to explain what i did and they were clueless and said we can connect it and see if it can be programmed. I went another day and just said that my CC was not working to have them connect the IDS (Ford Computer) and check it, in the notes they wrote that it was turned off...and it works..
I have a couple general question before I dive into this: 1. After searching for a 2005-2008 E350 steering wheel with cruise, it appears as though ford didn't make steering wheels with the cruise buttons for those years. So does that mean everyone who is getting these steering wheels with cruise control buttons is getting them from 2009 + models? 2. The original poster said he picked up the new clock spring because it had cruise but then when he put on his new steering wheel with cruise control buttons, it didn't have the matching connector for that clock spring so he had to splice on his original connector from the old clock spring. Does that mean the original clock spring would work with the new steering wheel with cruise control buttons?
@@spidennis I have an 06. The wheel I got on eBay didn’t have a year and was off an F series. I don’t think I matters the wheel as long as you’re in the range of your truck. What matters is the cruise switches which must match your year. You can get them on Amazon cheap
+Stephen Brenton yup, the 2005-2008 Econolines are fly-by-wire, so all you have to do to add cruise control is replace the steering wheel, clock spring and then get it turned on in the car's computer.
Did you happen to take a picture of the clock spring plugins? I purchased a new steering wheel with the cruise control buttons on it and a new clock spring part # AC2Z-14A664-C. Everything went well but sadly there is no place to plug in the cruise control plugs into. When you look at the clock spring that is facing you after installation has eight female pins. The original had a small plug in harness that is approximately 6" long with two wires connected to it that go to the horn, and the second set that comes from the back of the clock spring ( yellow lead ) goes to the airbag. So is there a plug in harness that replaces the original and encompasses all the pins and gives a place to plug in the two lead harnesses from the cruise control buttons?
+Michal Havlik I don't think so. Pretty sure this only works for gas Econolines from 2005-2008. Check this website to see what it they recommend: www.thecruisecontrolstore.com/ford/
I have a 2006 E350 that I NEED to upgrade. Already bought a used steering wheel from EBay. My question is why replace the clock spring? Is there a different clock spring for cruise vs. non cruise model vans? If so, might you have the proper part #?
I have a 2011 ford e-250 and my question is, do you have to replace the clock spring and why, is the old clock spring not compatible with the new cruize control steering wheel?
Hey there, i have a 2007 e450. I got the steering wheel from a 2010 e350 and it has the buttons. What year do i order for the clockspring??? Thanks and any advice would be a huge help. Lmk
Do all Ford vehicles 2006 2007 2008 for instance have a crystal scroll on the vehicle you’re just having to add the buttons and then have it enabled in the computer. Interesting, I’m looking at a 2007 Ford E350 the lady is selling it says this is an XLT but it’s screaming at Cell she won’t give me the Vin number so I can run it but the back badging just says E350 with the RSC system where I know my shoe thousand six in E350 XLT super duty is missing all the super duty stuff as well and the grill is stripped down the first red light with the steering wheel look nice and smooth. Like on a cop car. I have a police interceptor. I have the cruise control, but I was looking at many videos on how to turn that on. I got lucky and found when I didn’t need to do that special every single day that I have a long drive anyway thank you so much. I hope I wasn’t too much of a bore reading.
Weird. Ours apparently did. I think it's something you can add to the brake pedal. Might we worth checking yourself because they might have just told you that without actually checking...
I just found out about this C.C. "cut out" switch when it popped up on ebay today with the replacement cruise switches I was looking at. Got the wheel delivered this morning and the new clock spring is on it's way. Now I'm reading your reply too where Ford couldn't install it b-c there was no cut off switch. Yikes! I sure hope my brake cyl. already has that switch or that I can be added if needed or I'm totally screwed. And here I thought I was good to go.
@@spidennis Mine had an electrical plug connected to a pressure sensor that was mounted to the brake cylinder just in front of the reservoir (not the one connected to the plastic reservoir itself). If I remember correctly it was facing downward but that was 3 years ago. I'll have to check that later once the ice and snow melts off the truck. I did check with one of the online auto parts warehouses and they did specify with or without cruise control when ordering a master cylinder. So it must be true that some have it and some don't. I guess I got lucky with mine.
Thanks for the great video! I ordered a wheel and a new clock spring connector with the cruise option for my 06 E-150. I have a question though. I see there is a cruise control "cut out" switch that goes on the brake master cyl. You didn't mention anything about that but I'm still wondering if I will need that too since the van never had cruise before?? You didn't need to to add that too? It was already there? Thanks
Our van already had it so we didn't have to add it, but apparently some people have had to. But since it wasn't a problem for us, I don't know much about it...
Didn't do any. Just plugged everything in and it all fit. It's been a long time, but I sorta think the 2005-2008 were all compatible, so I'm not sure the 2010 wheel will work...
So you mean to tell me, all you have to do is get a steering wheel that has the cruise control buttons and a clock spring. Then just take it to a Ford dealership and get them to program it?
That's all I had to do. Some people haven't been able to because they didn't have the cruise control cancel switch on their brake pedal, but my van had that...
Great video but it's ridiculous that ford said the need to charge an hour at 125 dollars for a 15 minute job. If that took them 15 minutes to turn on the cruise they are even more stupid then rip offs. Appreciate the video.
@@sydandmacky thank u what is the easiest way to see if i have drive by wire to see if there is a metal wire to the engine or an electical connection from the petal?
Don't know if there's a good way to tell, but I think this is what you want: rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=2&pub=5575335421&toolid=10001&campid=5338189936&customid=&icep_item=263984187878&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229466&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg
Just tackled the job on adding the FACTORY cruise on a 2004 E350 as I think most aftermarket Cruise Control Units suck. You'll need: - Steering Wheel w/ cruise (some F150 models seem to be compatible) - Steering wheel Clockspring /w cruise 4C2Z-14A664-AA - New Steering wheel bolt N807493-S100 - Cruise servo F8UZ-9C735-AA (discontinued) , however, you can use pretty much every servo/gear unit from most Fords 1993 and up (check pictures) but still have to find a salvaged Electronics module. See ua-cam.com/video/RunKPb7oNIM/v-deo.html for details! - Cruise Cable to hook up into Throttle (discontinued), found a NOS part, but shouldn't be too hard to find at junkjards. Dunno about other models with the 5.4 Engine and if they fit. - Cruise Servo bracket F8UZ-9C736-AB (discontinued), should be easy to find at Junkjards/Wreckers or can be custom made if you're into metal working. Has 2 8mm bolts for mounting below coolant reservoir and 2 for clamping on the servo - And around 1h of your time Spend aorund 250 Dollars including shipment to Germany for everything. I think that's worth it!
I've never unplugged the battery to remove an airbag. Its not going to go off... That's just superstition. I should add you should still disconnect the battery at home so you don't trigger the airbag light. If you have a proper scan tool you can just reset the light if it comes on. There is nothing more annoying than dealing with a customer whos setting got erased because you disconnected the battery.

@@spidennis I stuck my camera under the master cylinder and snapped a few photos, then compared them with photos found on the web for 2007 Ford F350 cruise control kill switch brake master cylinder. Sorry, I don't have part numbers but I ordered the clock spring from Amazon and simply entered my vehicle particulars prior to searching. The wheel was located on Ebay by searching for "2007 Ford F350 E350 steering wheel." Hardest part of the whole process was pulling the old steering wheel off. It's been a year or more now and cruise control still works perfectly.

What color is the fricken VSS wire
Are the 2008+ vans all fly by wire...same process?

You need to take your two arms and 'puller'.
The link for Amazon you have is no longer any good I guess since it’s a 3 yr old video that’s understandable anyways thanks for the video
I've never unplugged the battery to remove an airbag. Its not going to go off... That's just superstition. I should add you should still disconnect the battery at home so you don't trigger the airbag light. If you have a proper scan tool you can just reset the light if it comes on. There is nothing more annoying than dealing with a customer whos setting got erased because you disconnected the battery.
Hey there, wondering if you saw my comment
Just completed this mod today. New steering wheel only cost $50 on ebay; the most expensive item was the clock spring (over $100). Caveat: don't buy a gear puller from the auto parts store. Chances are it won't be up to the task. I wound up ordering a heavy duty one off Amazon and it did the job. Took it to the dealer for brake work and told them, "oh, by the way, the cruise control quit working recently." The service advisor called the next day and told me the brake work was done and the cruise control was now working. "It was never programmed properly into the computer," he said. Labor on the CC portion was $159. Another caveat: before taking it to the dealer I made sure my truck had a cruise control kill switch on the master cylinder. Thanks for this.
How did you verify that you had the brake kill switch already installed?
Also, do you know what the part numbers are for the wheel and clock spring or what it came off from? Years?
@@spidennis I stuck my camera under the master cylinder and snapped a few photos, then compared them with photos found on the web for 2007 Ford F350 cruise control kill switch brake master cylinder. Sorry, I don't have part numbers but I ordered the clock spring from Amazon and simply entered my vehicle particulars prior to searching. The wheel was located on Ebay by searching for "2007 Ford F350 E350 steering wheel." Hardest part of the whole process was pulling the old steering wheel off. It's been a year or more now and cruise control still works perfectly.
