It is with great pleasure that I announce that I have working cruise control in the coach. Also a big shout out to Ken Frey for making that happen. While I try to do most of my own work, I do budget a few dollars each year for things like this. Anyway, the coach was in this week for its annual Pennsylvania State safety inspection and I asked Ken to look at the cruise control. It needed a new transducer and the replacement of a wire in the wiring harness that had lost continuity somewhere. I was able to assist with the tracing and testing of the circuits. Ken is a good technician and knows his way around the schematic and the wiring harness.
I felt like "King for the Day" as I drove home last night with the cruise control set at 55 mph on PA 663. Still many desired upgrades on the coach but I believe on this day, July 26, 2017, everything on my coach is working. While there are still many desired upgrades, everything is now functional as I celebrate 4 years of GMC ownership.

I always leave a bit of room for improvement. When EVERYTHING is perfect,
you only have one way to go!
