I have a 2011 Prostar with a Maxxforce engine and Eaton Fuller 13 speed. The cruise control works in the high split gears, i.e. 13, 11, 9 and 7. It does not work in the low split gears, 12, 10, 8, 6.
I've been laughed at by mechanics and told it's not possible until they test drive and end up eating humble pie. The factory uploaded the programming and inspected it. Created a new program, still not working.
Anyone know a parameter or sensor that can cause this issue? It's not funny when I am in California and cannot set the cruise at a speed that will not get me a ticket or have to set the cruise in 13th at 1150 RPMs...
Thanks, Mike.
Cruise control doesn't work in even numbered gears.

The cruise control programming is based on engine and road speed min and max limits. There is no input to the engine from a manual transmission about which gear or range you are in. You should be able to turn on the cruise, get the truck to the desired speed and selected gear and hit "set". I can't tell by your comment, but did they road test it? Did they contact International Tech Services for help? You said the "factory" uploaded the program. Do you mean the dealer? Did the dealer do any ECM calibrations? Do you have drive line protection or driver reward enabled at all?

it is splitter position problem. Cruise is off when you shift splitter. Spliter sensor reads low and high position. When no low and no high cruise is off till you comlite shifting and press resume button. Sensor stucks and reads low position only. in high position it reads nothing.... It is problem of MAN TGA truck. International use MAN TGA powertrain.
