Cruise Control C5 Estate 04

[ghostms]

cruise control for me is a very useful thing for doing long trips on the highway, but its totally new for me. last weekend i was driving c5 06 i tihnk and it had the cruise control and when iturned it on it showed it self in the dash panel and everything was cool. now i bought c5 estate 2004 and its cruise control seems totally diferent. first it didnt work at all... then a guy turned on something in the screen (dont know what it is since its in spanish ). and then he told me that i work so i tried it today and at first it didnt work, but going above 90 it turned on... but even so... i didnt know what speed its going up to (cause it was accelerating) could not check it more because i had to stop...trip was very short.

question is in the older models does it show up anywhere when you turn it on?

On My 2003 C5, It doesn't show up when you turn the cruise control on. 

There is a switch on the stick you use to control the speed to turn it off and on, however I always leave it on and I activate it by pressing the + or - button when I want to use it.

As you know it disengages when you touch the brake or clutch pedals.

 

If it starts to accelerate when I press the + key, I press - key, this resets the speed to what you are doing.

 

Hope that helps a little.

By this do you mean a diagnostic tool screen or the car screen - if the latter, on Citroens you can usually change the car's language through the radio menu.
