Cruise control retrofit

Citroen C3 cruise control retrofit

You are fitting accessories to a C3 and the customer asks the usual question at the counter: can it have cruise control? Yes, and it does not involve pulling the pedal assembly apart.

Why the C3 keeps coming up

It is a comfortable, popular hatchback with a soft ride that suits motorway cruising, which makes the missing feature more obvious than it would be in a sportier car. Owners notice by the second long trip.

What makes it awkward

Modern Citroens run on a CAN network that rejects anything it does not recognise. A part meant for another model can pull a fault light onto the cluster and send the customer back to you, annoyed, with the car on the forecourt for a second time. That return trip costs more than the first fit.

The route we take

Our unit gets its road speed straight from the C3 bus, has no mechanical link to the engine, and is programmed for the C3 at our end. It is one of the CAN KONTROL line assembled at the Scorpion Automotive site in Chorley. Give us the year and trim and you get the configuration and wiring approach back.

Questions about the Citroen C3

Does the C3 lose any factory function when this is fitted?
The module reads from the bus rather than replacing any part of it, so nothing the car already does is removed. Engineers confirm that for your year before you buy.
Which part of the CANM8 range is the same job?
In our published cross-reference, CAN KONTROL CRUISE sits against the CANM8 Cruise Control range. We name it so you can compare like with like.
Can I get one unit for several C3s?
You will need one per car, but the configuration is reusable, and the quantity field on the form lets us quote the batch together.
