- Lever out the remaining tang of the outer cable (1) then lift the cable away from the throttle relaxer mounting bracket (6).
- Turn the outer control cable (2) towards the engine approximately 45 degrees (a) to release the cable lock mechanism (3) from the cruise control module (1).
- Pull the outer cable (2) from the cruise control module (4) and disconnect the inner cable (3) from the electric stepper motor strap and fitting (1) by lifting the cable upward, approximately 45 degrees, allowing it to be released from the end fitting.

Installation Procedure
- Ensure the cruise control cable is routed correctly.
- Ensure the motor strap (1) is not twisted. Attach the inner cable end (2) to the motor strap end fitting (3) at the cruise control module (4).

- Rotate the top cam (4) of the throttle relaxer (5) and install the inner cable ferrule (2) into the slot in the cam (3). Ensure the inner cable is properly in the groove on the cam.
- Push the outer cable retainer (1) onto the throttle relaxer mounting bracket (6) ensuring the cable retaining tang locks into the mounting bracket.

- Allow the internal spring of the cable adjuster/lock mechanism (1) to take up the free play of the outer cable (2).
- Push down on the outer cable locking retainer to fix the outer cable to the correct self adjusted length.
Important: After the cable is fitted, ensure the throttle opens without binding and returns to the fully closed position under throttle return spring tension.
