Default Cruise Light Stays on!!! Help...
Hard to believe....&nbsp\\; Cruise light stays on... I can set it no problem, but cannot shut it off with the on off button.&nbsp\\; It shuts down if I tap the brakes or roll the throttle back, but the orange light stays lit 100% of the time.

Sounds like a simple warranty item....since it is causing you no operating headache, just wait for the next service to be due.

Does it stay on with the rocker on the dash turned off? Cause if the rocker is on it will stay orange till you activate it. Then it turns green.

Just a guess, but doesn't the Cruise Light have something to do with the heat management system?

If you haven't done so already, contact the service manager and document the fact that the cruise continues to malfunction\\; also, with the TBW, and the electronic cruise control, I'd be concerned about the malfunction as a safety issuefor all you know there may be a dangerous defect in the ECM causing this malfunction.
