    Not sure what to think of this #### smart wheel. I the cruise doesn’t work nor does the break but the intermittent lights work. But ofcourse they go off soon as u stop pressing thr button so that’s normal for them but the Jake’s and cruise light shows on thr dash their on soon as u let go theirs nothing, I have 7V coming into the steering. Any help?

    If you can get the PDF to work its Kenworth SmartWheel troubleshooting guide, '01 and earlier I believe.

    Now If these issues suddenly appeared after deleting codes would it have anything to do with a fail safe?

    I had an issue with the Jakes not working with a smart wheel but the indicator light would come on. I didn't have regular toggle switches for them so i just pulled the toggle switch panel on the dash and the harness had the plugs labeled for jakes,cruise etc. Got the toggle switches, plugged them in and they worked perfect. Could be an option for you if you don't figure out your problem.

    I’ve been thinking that forsure! Might have to just to get it to work but might be going to KW also! To get this beast fixed. When u likely deleted the smart wheel since theirs more then 3 Jake options and cruise control settings how could u move it to a toggle switch?

    i just got some factory Jake switches and put them in the factory spare switch locations i had on the dash. I only did the 2 for the Jakes but the wires were there for the 2 cruise switches as well.
