Previously, cruise control and a speed limiter on the Lada Granta Luxe were installed from the factory, but since the summer of 2020 this option has been excluded from this configuration. In September 2020, sales of the updated Lada Granta family began, but this option did not appear on the restyled model. Did you know that you can install cruise control and speed limiter on the new Granta yourself?
Two conditions for successful operation of cruise control
:
- Cruise control and speed limiter only work on certain versions of the ECU. Tested on 11186-1411020-47 I445GBT2 (ECU is located behind the glove compartment).
- According to reviews from owners, AvtoVAZ has introduced storage of the type of steering column switches into the instrument cluster. This means that if a three-button switch is already installed in the car, then it will no longer accept a 6-button switch; the dashboard configuration must be reset (performed by DST-14 or paid Opendiag). In the Standard configuration, there are no buttons in the switch, and the panel is in a switch-waiting state, so after replacing the switch, the cruise control and speed limiter will work (on other trim levels the function will need to be activated).
According to the owners' reviews, you can change the configuration of the dashboard of the new Granta using the MDFlasher program (it's paid) by connecting via the OBD connector with a scanmatic:
Required
:
- steering column switch (article 1119-3709340-20)
- Steering column switch connector (part number AMP 174922-1)
- terminals to the dashboard connector (part number AMP 963715-1)
How does cruise control work?
This device monitors the vehicle's speed and adjusts the fuel supply based on it. To estimate speed, signals from ABS sensors are most often used, this avoids unnecessary complication of the system. When the CC is turned on, its control unit remembers the number of ABS sensor pulses per unit of time. If the number of pulses has increased, it reduces the fuel supply; if it has decreased, it increases it. If the cruise control is coordinated with the automatic transmission, then the gears are switched depending on the load. On a manual transmission, this work has to be done by the driver. In most cases, the fuel supply is controlled using a servo or motor with a gearbox, which regulates the position of the throttle valve.
Connecting the cruise control Drivenge
We connect the cruise control with standard connectors into the gas pedal gap and the accelerator pedal connector. There are still four wires left that we connect:
- red (plus, from +10 to 18 V) -> to the ignition switch (pin 30 – from the battery, pin 15 – after ignition);
- black (ground) -> any bolt on the body;
- yellow (speed sensor) -> to the EUR (gray, second from the right on the block);
- brown (brake pedal sensor) -> to red-blue (Kalina 2) or blue-burgundy (Granta).
For a manual transmission, you should also connect the green wire to the clutch pedal sensor; for an automatic transmission, we leave it unconnected.
In addition to cruise control, it is possible to select the operating mode of the booster pedal:
- “Economy” – the sensitivity of the gas pedal decreases, fuel consumption decreases.
- “Dynamics” - a subjective feeling of increased vehicle dynamics appears and the effect of delayed response to the gas pedal is somewhat reduced.
- “Sport” – gives maximum sensitivity of the gas pedal. It is similar to the “Dynamics” mode, but has a steeper characteristic.

By the way, you can get rid of the additional lever on the steering column by combining it with the standard steering column switch. Let us remind you that the Lada Kalina 2 and Granta cars are united not only by the installation of cruise control, but also by other modifications. For example, bumpers can be easily exchanged between these models. Are you ready to install cruise control on your Lada car?

Characteristics
Advantages and disadvantages of the system
The advantages of this device are obvious - reducing the load on the driver. This is especially important during long trips along the highway, lasting more than one hour. The driver's leg does not get tired, because the control unit automatically increases or decreases the fuel supply, so the speed does not change. However, this device is not without its drawbacks. Any malfunction in its operation can lead to an accident, because it independently regulates the fuel supply to the engine. Another drawback is that this device relaxes the driver, which causes his concentration to decrease. This can also lead to an accident.
Is it possible to do a cruise on your own?
When making a CC yourself, the following questions arise:
- where to get a diagram that does not need to be altered to fit your car;
- where to get a servo drive with suitable characteristics;
- how to ensure overall system reliability;
- how to avoid mistakes that can lead to tragedy.
A large number of different diagrams taken from production cars of the end of the last century are posted on the Internet. Finding parts for them is problematic because they are no longer produced. If you use modern circuits with microcontrollers, then no one knows how such a circuit will behave during some kind of failure. Perhaps it will lower the engine speed to idle, or maybe it will sharply increase it to maximum. If this happens at a sharp turn, tragedy cannot be avoided. Another problem is the servo drive, the pitch of which is tenths of a millimeter. This will allow you to smoothly regulate the speed of the car and avoid jerking.
Many DIYers suggest using a motor and gearbox from windshield wipers for this, however, this option is not very good due to high inertia and difficulties with adjustment. If you use the electronic gas pedal drive from a damaged foreign car, then why not take the control unit from there? Installing such a drive on a car with a throttle cable will require installing and connecting a servo drive to the throttle valve. All this allows us to conclude that you can do cruise control yourself if you are well versed in electronics, have access to the component base and can carry out a serious modification of the car yourself.

How much does a cruise system and its installation cost?
The cost of inexpensive cruise control models that provide a minimum number of functions (maintaining and smoothly adjusting speed) starts from 10 thousand rubles. The delivery set includes a control unit and a servo drive. More expensive models, the cost of which reaches 30 thousand rubles, are equipped with an LCD display that displays the operating mode of the CC and the main parameters of the car, and is also capable of self-learning. Often such units are equipped not with a vacuum, but with a completely electric servo drive, which does not require intervention in the operation of the vacuum brake booster, so its installation is several times simpler.
When choosing a cruise control model, keep in mind that all electronic components officially imported into the Russian Federation or produced domestically must have the following documents:
- passport in Russian, which describes in detail the characteristics, device and installation;
- certificate of conformity issued by the Federal Agency for Metrology and Technical Regulation.
If you purchased the installation kit for a vehicle other than yours, you will have to buy the wiring separately or make it yourself with the appropriate connectors. The cost of installation is 2-5 thousand rubles and takes 1-2 hours. The installation also includes a full setup of the cruise control and testing of its operation. If the CC is installed on a car with a mechanically driven injector, fuel injection pump or carburetor, you need to buy an electronic gas pedal sensor. This will allow you to turn off cruise control by pressing the brake or gas pedals, which increases the safety of driving.
Connection
Procedure
:
- Remove the instrument panel
- Connect the new steering column switch to the dashboard (green -> 23 panel pin, red -> 24, yellow -> 10, black -> “ground”)
- Run the dashboard for the first time with a test (press the daily mileage reset button and turn on the ignition), the cruise control and speed limiter indicators should light up.

How to install cruise control on a car yourself
To install the CC yourself you will need:
- cruise control installation kit;
- electrical diagram of your car;
- wiring for CC corresponding to your car or suitable connectors and mounting wire;
- electronic gas pedal sensor (only for vehicles with manual throttle control);
- a tee and a hose, the diameter of which is equal to the diameter of the hose of the vacuum brake booster (only for CC with a vacuum servo drive);
- a fuse whose current is 50 percent greater than that indicated in the passport of the KK control unit;
- tester;
- drill;
- a set of keys;
- a set of screwdrivers of different lengths and thicknesses;
- various nuts and bolts for attaching the servo drive and control unit;
- insulating tape;
- Ability to read schematics, connect wires, and perform complex plumbing work.
Using the diagram, locate the wire that transmits the ABS sensor signals. If your car does not have one, then the wire that transmits signals from the electronic speedometer. If it is not there, then the wire is the tachometer, crankshaft position sensor, camshaft or electronic ignition control. From this wire, the CC controller will receive data on the vehicle speed or engine operation, from which it will determine whether it is necessary to add or reduce the fuel supply.
After this, locate the wire connected to the brake sensor that turns on the brake lights. From this wire the CC controller will receive a signal that turns off its operation. Next, locate the wire from the electronic gas pedal sensor. If you have a mechanical pedal, connect a sensor to it. Locate the wire that supplies the ignition ON signal to the injector controller, electronic ignition, or diesel fuel valve. The KK control unit must be connected to this wire. To connect the servo, find the wire for the generator or power supply to the ignition coils.
Find a location on the front panel to install the buttons and QC indicator. In the engine compartment, find a place to install the servo drive. The distance from it to the throttle valve should not exceed 2/3 of the length of its cable. Find a place to install the control unit. It is advisable to install it in the cabin under the front panel.
- Disconnect the battery.
- Secure the servo drive and control unit. If you have standard wiring, then lay it so that the wires do not dangle and connect it to the appropriate connector and connect the fuse. If there is no standard wiring, assemble it based on the car diagram and pinout of the control unit contacts, and also connect the connector to the standard wiring. Install the fuse.
- Connect the wiring to the CC control unit and the servo drive.
- After this, be sure to check that you have connected everything correctly.
- If everything is fine, start the engine, accelerate the car and check the operation of the cruise control.
Attention
Consider the following - independent connection of the CC control unit to any type of automatic transmission requires deep knowledge and experience. If you know how to do this, then you don't need a description. If you don't know how, then don't try to connect. The result will be a damaged control unit or automatic transmission.

Cruise control significantly increases the level of comfort in the car; every driver can remember more than one situation when, from constantly pressing the pedal, the leg became numb, and from constantly changing the position, the back and neck began to hurt.
One factor in installing cruise control is efficiency. By controlling the gas pedal yourself, the car is much more likely to be in the acceleration-rolling mode, this can increase fuel consumption by up to 10-15%.
Another advantage of this cruise control is the presence of a pedal booster . This software function allows you to set one of three preset modes.
Economy mode - weak response to the gas pedal, maximum fuel economy.
Drive mode is identical to the factory mode, perhaps a little more economical.
“Sport” mode - the fastest possible response to the gas pedal, with slightly increased fuel consumption, the car becomes much faster.
Control of the device is similar to standard cruises. Switching on is done using one button, switching off with the brake pedal or by pressing the button again.
Cruise control model Drivenge Lada Largus MT was created specifically for this model with a manual transmission.
It doesn’t matter what kind of ECU and gas pedal connector the Lada Largus has. For each unit, the device is equipped in such a way that intervention in the electronics and software of the vehicle control units is not required.
Detailed instructions are included with the device.
You can install the device yourself without having serious knowledge of electronics.
