I have a late model GM steering column with a turn signal stalk that has the Hi/Lo beam, wipers and cruise control on it. The wires coming out of the stalk are color code as; red, green, blue and white and they go down to a plug that also has a black wire looped to two of the posts. I have installed an after market Audiovoxx Dash mounted Cruise Control that has the speed sensor from magnets around the drive shaft. There are 4 wires on the dash mounted switch color coded as; red, brown, green and yellow. I am trying to make the column mounted stalk the control instead of the dash mounted control. Any Ideas would be greatly appreciated. This whole installation is on a street rod and I am not 100% sure of the year of the donor steering column.

Since U don't know the year of the column:
Is the plug on the handle flat or square? And R U sure that it is a white wire? Also can U switch your cruise box to Open or Closed Circuit for your handle? ------------- MO

I just double checked the color coding of the plug and it is red, green, blue and white. The plug has 5 posts with wires attached. Across the top they are colored as follows with the second row on the bottom. There is a jumper wire from the Black post to the White post. RED GREEN BLACK BLUE WHITE

Not knowing the year is an issue with me, but U can use a ohm meter to determine the functions of the wires. The only GM handles I have wiring R like this:
White = 12 volt ignition
Green = ON
Red = Set
Yellow = Resume
U still need to check if your Cruise Box will switch to Open Circuit Handle/Switch
The dash switch U are using now is Closed Circuit and the GM Handle (if that is GM) is Open Circuit ------------- MO

Sorry for not replying sooner but I have been on vacation and this is the first chance I have had to reply. To "mo12V"; how do I check for an open or closed circuit? I am certain this is a GM column but again I am not sure of the year. To "ynst"; I am not sure of anything at this poin, although I do know the wiper switch on the stalk continues to work the wipers so I have all but ruled that portion out.

I have never posted a picture to one of these forums, but I will try. I have tried several times to upload the picture but it will not upload because of its size. I will try e-mailing you directly if I can figure out the address. My home address is tkinsell@rochester.rr.com if it does not go thru to you. Maybe you can send me your address.
