Cruise control turns off when wipers are on?

Just when you've figured out the right speed adjustment you're thru the storm...lol

 

My truck did that. I have Detroit Diesel Diagnostic Link standard edition. But I couldn’t change it.
I had to get the dealer to change it, requires the professional version software.
At first we tried to shut off all three conditions that kill the cruise. They are the wipers, the headlights and the four way flashers.
The only way to get it to work was to leave one of them on. Seeing as if I have my four way flashers going I’m probably not to concerned with cruise control. We picked that one to remain in effect.
So now I can use cruise with either or both headlights on and wipers on.

 

They sell it as a window washer additive too so you can add it to the reservoir and have it apply itself as you use the wiper fluid... doesn’t treat the entire windshield but the parts that it misses are not looked through anyway... so this will save him from having to climb on top of the engine.

Strap a midget to the hood, and give him a squeegee. Whenever you need the windshield wiped, just hit the button on the remote to activate his shock collar.

Otherwise, I'm out of ideas.

 

They are ‘little people’

 

I absolutely hate that ... I know it's supposed to be a safety feature, but I find that it makes matters less safe... With cruise off, I have to divert much more of my attention to the speedometer (company monitors speed over the speed limit), meaning less time with eyes on the road ahead of me.

 

It’s so you don’t end up like this
