ACC Error - New Car Wash?
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
While it was not entirely uncommon for me to get a "No Cruise Available" message after running through the local carwash, I recently changed carwashes and now have an error that will not go away. I value your suggestion(s) as to where I should begin.
Let me start by saying that I do not have access to a body code reader, so the obvious is out. I also assume that the error had/has something to do with water getting into a connection or similar.
The new full brush carwash is much more thorough than was the old one - did a better job - but the chemicals are also different. For example, the brakes do not like the new carwash either as they seem to take much longer to work properly after a wash. I suspect the chemical mixture is the brake fade culprit and may be related to the ACC failure.
Thoughts?

Haven't had time to dig deeper, but wanted to clarify something that took an immediate left turn in the discussion: I do not get the "ACC Sensor Blocked" message. It goes directly to "Cruise Control Not Available".
What I expect to find when I get under the front end is a leaky wiring harness plug. I suspect that high-pressure water penetrates the seal and the wax/detergents have fouled the connection.
Got an upcoming oil change, so sometime in the next few weeks I'll let all y'all know what I found.
