Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use this feature with an aftermarket steering wheel?

A: Maybe. This feature requires the factory cruise control buttons to work properly.


Q: I forgot what slot I’m currently in, how can I tell which slot is active?

A: Use VCM Scanner to monitor the “Active Slot” parameter or press the “Coast”

button.


Q: I shut off the car in Slot 3, and when I started it back up the Active Slot was 3!  How

did that happen?

A: We thought it’d be cool if this feature remembered your previous slot and restored it

for you on startup.
