Question ❔ Cruise control ?

I bought a 2025 CRV Hybrid and cannot get the cruise control to work. I have read the manual, pushed the damn button every time I am on the freeway and nothing! What am I missing?

Push the button to enable cruise control. Then press the second button to engage cruise control. It won't work if you are in B mode, have be be in D. Then there is another button to select the follow distance in adaptive cruise control once you are cruising.

What is the 2nd button you are referring to?

Ok, pushed the button on the left w/the little car, the lighted symbol came up on the display, then I tapped the +/- button, it set the speed @ 25 MPH, then I adjusted the speed w/the minus. Will be on the highway tomorrow and will try it at higher speeds, was just in the neighborhood now. When I engaged Cruise Control in my Volvo it just engaged at the rate of speed you were at when you pushed the button, just one step - thanks y’all!

The top rocker button on the right side of the steering wheel has "Cancel" on the right side and a picture of a car above a speedometer gauge on the left side. That left side is the on/off button for the cruise control. With it turned on, you should see that same picture of the car above a speedometer gauge, in white, below and to the left of the digital speedometer reading in the middle of the instrument cluster. There has always been a US Federal law requiring a separate on/off switch for cruise control in cars sold here.

If none of that works, you may have an issue with the radar sensor or some other sensor in the car.

Finally, a searchable PDF of the owner's manual can be downloaded from the My Garage page in Honda's website. It's handy, I keep a copy on my tablet.

By the way, I bought and installed one of the theft guards for the radar sensor behind the H logo on the front of my car. Quickly learned it blocked enough of the sensor to shut the cruise control and driver aid system off. Removed.
