I have a 2009 Victory Vision and only have 1500 miles on it and have only had it for two weeks. I went to use my cruise control, well nothing happened. The on & Off light comes on,however, the little green light on the dash does not come on and i am forced to ride with out it.
Has anyone had any problem with their cruise control?

Have your shop check the switch on the rear break pedal, mine did the same thing easy fix.
The cruise control thought the break was on all the time.

Check brake light bulb. I believe you need it to work for cruise to work. Check fuses.

Check the two wires in line on the throttle cable. Most common reason. Pictured in the thread below.

Not suggesting "lack of experience" here, so please don't get ticked. But since you are teeny bit new to the Vision are you 100% sure you are.............hitting the correct buttons to set the cruise? Hey...it could happen

Would hate to see someone to go to the dealer and say thier cruise don't work just to find out they weren't setting it properly. Be kinda embarassing.

Just a refresher...hit the top of the left button so the red light comes on and then hit the top of the right button to "set" the cruise.

Oh....this problem has surfaced a few times around here. Check the rear lamps and make sure you don't have a bulb out.

 Ditto.  Had mine stop working on a long ride after a rain once.  Pulled off the connector (which appeared attached still) and reconnected it. Problem solved.  When I got home, I applied dielectric grease to the spade connector and squeezed the connector a bit to make a tighter connection.  No recurrance.

I had the same thing happen on mine and they said it was traced to a pinched wire from when i had the tour pack off then put it back on and pinched it. Just a thought.
