How to turn off the cruisemain warning in Honda?

[Beatrice]

To deactivate the cruisemain warning in Honda: 1. Press the on/off switch to activate the cruise control system, then press it again to cancel; 2. Maintain current speed and press the accelerator or brake pedal to deactivate. Honda models include: Civic, Enjoy, CR-V, Life, MNV, etc. Taking the Civic as an example, it's a compact car with dimensions: 4517mm length, 1799mm width, 1434mm height, and 2700mm wheelbase. The Civic is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine delivering 130kW maximum power at 6000rpm, and 220Nm maximum torque between 1700-5500rpm.

The CRUISEMAIN indicator light being on means the cruise control system is activated. There should be a button with a speedometer icon on the right side of the steering wheel - pressing it will turn it off. On some models, this button is located on the side of the steering wheel spoke, so you might need to feel around for it. If pressing it doesn't work, don't panic - it could be due to poor contact or a system glitch. When I encounter this situation, I usually lightly tap the brake pedal first, and most of the time the light goes off. If that doesn't work, try turning off the engine and restarting - last time this happened to me on a camping trip, the indicator returned to normal after restarting. Be careful not to let water seep into the gaps around the steering wheel buttons when washing the car, as these components can be quite delicate.

The "cruise main" light on the Honda dashboard indicates the activation of cruise control, and the method to turn it off is actually quite simple. Look at the control area on the right side of the steering wheel, where there's a main switch button labeled "cruise." Press it firmly until you hear a click, and the dashboard light will immediately turn off. If pressing the button doesn't work, try stepping on the brake pedal—sometimes the system responds a bit slowly. Once, when I was driving a friend's Honda, the button didn't respond, and it turned out to be due to poor contact in the steering wheel clock spring. These control buttons are prone to sticking in cold winter temperatures, especially in older cars. It's advisable to keep the buttons clean and avoid attaching phone mounts or decorations on the steering wheel that might block the control area.

To turn off the cruisemain light, simply locate the cruise control switch on the right side of the steering wheel. It's the round button with a dashboard icon in the middle—make sure to press it all the way down. In newer Honda models, this button is positioned for thumb access, while older models might have it near the turn signal stalk. Sometimes the system activates accidentally without you noticing. Important reminder: Always deactivate cruise control before descending steep slopes—once I forgot to turn it off on a mountain road and the car kept accelerating, which was really scary. After parking, check that the cruise control unit wiring isn't being pressed by floor mats.
