So on my 97 cheyanne.
I have a 5.3 and I also have complete wiring and computer to go dbw or dbc. Trying decide which route I'm going. I found all info I need to get cruise to work with dbw.
Only piece of the puzzle I lack, is information, in regards to dbc and cruise control. Is it as simple as connecting the existing 97 cruise cable to the dbc throttle body? My understanding this year has its own cruise "computer". And being I'm retaining the nv3500. The vss should remain to this computer, unless I botch something combining harnesses, correct?

It is as simple as connecting the cable and leaving the cruise module wired in.

I know this is an old thread but does the 96 have its own computer for the cruise control? I ls swap my 96 k2500 and using the 4L80E that was factory. I have a standalone harness. I just confused on how to wire the cruise up.
Thank you

Built into the cruise module on the firewall. If you went with a DBC throttle body, only need to hook a VSS signal to it from the LS PCM to keep it working.

Thank you for the reply. So need to tap into the vss wire from the LS PCM to the cruise control module on the fire wall? Do you happen to know what color wire on the fire wall? I beleive the vss wire is brown or is there another spot in the comperture i should tap into? Again, thank you for all your help.
