Gray - Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) Wire  
The Gray Vehicle Speed Signal (VSS) wire is how the Cruise Control 

“knows” how fast the vehicle is moving. The 

Pulses Per Mile/Kilometer (PPM/PPK) are a characteristic of the vehicle and must be set accordingly. If VSS cannot  
be located on the vehicle then an auxiliary road speed sensor must be used [Signal Generator or Magnet & Coil Pick-
Up Kit (Kit # 250-4165) (Dakota Digital P/N SEN-4165)]. If you use an auxiliary speed sensor, plug it into auxiliary 
speed sensor connector and trim the Gray VSS wire short as not to pick-up any stray signals.  
 
In order to locate the VSS and TACH signals in your vehicle, consult a Vehicle Shop Manual. 
 
 
Light Green 

– 

Optional

 Neutral Safety (NSS) - 

(wire is taped at beginning of harness)

  

The NSS function is an optional safety feature of the Cruise Control. If a vehicle with an automatic transmission is 
accidentally “knocked” into neutral while the vehicle is in motion and the Cruise Control is active, the NSS wire, when 
connected, will disengage the Cruise Control before engine over-

rev. If the NSS wire is not “hooked-up”, the cruise 

control will function; but the Dark Blue tachometer wire must then be used. This light green wire terminates in the 
harness.  
 
 
Orange 

– 

Optional

 Enable Output (ENO) Wire - 

(wire is taped at beginning of harness)

 

The ENO Function allows you to use the Cruise Control as a driver for an external L.E.D. The ENO Wire will supply a 
ground to an LED (the positive side of an LED has ignition power), when the system is engaged. This orange wire 
terminates in the harness.  
 
 
Auxiliary Speed Sensor Connector - This connector is utilized when the Gray VSS wire is not used as the vehicle 
speed source. Please contact Dakota Digital regarding the Magnet & Coil Pick-Up Kit should your particular installation 
require one.  
 
 
4-Pin Switch Connector - This connector is utilized by the control switch. The control switch included with your 
purchase has a mating connector which plugs into this connector.  
 
 
2-Pin Switch Connector - This connector is used in conjunction with the 4-Pin Switch Connector. The 2-Pin Switch 
Connector is utilized by certain control switches which require an additional power and ground source such as those  
containing an LED indicator light or optional Radio Frequency (RF) models.  Dakota Digital does not carry the RF 
switches so this plug will not be used. 
 
 
 
Bulkhead Connectors  - These connectors simplify the installation of the wiring harness through the engine  
bulkhead (firewall). Simply disconnect the connectors, run them through any 19mm 

(.75”) hole in the firewall 

(preferably near the steering column), and reconnect them once inside the passenger compartment.
