Can the Haval M6 be modified with cruise control?

Haval M6 can be modified with cruise control, but it must be installed by a professional institution. Introduction to cruise control function: When the cruise control button is pressed, the car can maintain that speed. The function immediately disappears when the brake pedal is depressed. How cruise control works: The cruise control component reads the pulse signal from the vehicle speed sensor and compares it with the set speed, then issues commands to the servo mechanism to adjust the throttle opening to increase or decrease, so that the vehicle always maintains the set speed. How to use cruise control: Press CRUISE to activate cruise control. Press the adjustment button once in the RES+ or SET- direction to increase or decrease the set cruise speed by 1km/h. Press the button in the SET- direction to set the current speed as the cruise speed.

I've looked into many Haval M6 modification cases, and cruise control can indeed be retrofitted. First, you need to check if your car has pre-installed interfaces. Older base models may require additional control modules and wiring harnesses. There are specialized modification shops in the market that can help you replace the steering wheel buttons and reprogram the vehicle's computer. The whole process takes about two to three hours and costs around 1,500 to 3,000 RMB. However, be sure to choose a reliable modification shop, as improper wiring could potentially affect the braking system. My neighbor had it done last year, and it really makes highway driving much easier, though it's hardly used in the city.

As someone who frequently drives long distances, I find retrofitting cruise control quite practical. Technically, it's entirely feasible to modify this on the Haval M6, with two main approaches: either replacing the entire steering wheel assembly with cruise control buttons or adding a third-party module. The former is more stable but more expensive, while the latter is cheaper but may have a noticeable delay. I recommend prioritizing OEM parts, as aftermarket components are prone to triggering fault codes. After modification, pay attention to testing the sensitivity of the brake disengagement function—safety comes first. My own car has been running smoothly for two years post-modification, but remember that such modifications may affect the electrical circuit warranty, and you might face hassles during maintenance at 4S shops.

For young people who enjoy car modifications, installing cruise control is not a complex project. For the Haval M6, this modification requires removing the steering wheel to install control buttons and connecting the ECU wiring harness. The most critical step is programming the vehicle's computer to activate the function. Those with strong DIY skills can purchase a kit and tackle it themselves, but beginners should seek professional help. After the modification, remember to test it on the highway, focusing on whether acceleration and deceleration are smooth, and whether the system immediately deactivates when the brakes are suddenly applied. I recommend adding a fuse protection module to prevent short circuits and electrical damage. Prices vary depending on the quality of the parts, ranging from 800 to 2000, which is much more cost-effective than upgrading the audio system.

Last time at the auto parts market, I saw several Haval M6s getting cruise control retrofitted. The technician said the technology is now mature, and a dedicated decoder can program it in just ten minutes. The key is to use shielded wiring to prevent false fault reports, and it's best to choose a module with speed memory function. After the modification, fuel consumption will slightly decrease, and your right foot won't need to constantly press the accelerator on long trips. However, special attention is required: using cruise control in rainy weather can easily cause skidding, and it's not recommended on mountainous roads with many curves. A retrofit cost of around two thousand is reasonable, but older vehicles might need additional expenses for wiring harness replacement.
