Any Idea if if this cruise control from Waeco Magic speed cruise control will work on the Bongo.

There are those that know far more than me but I think that the majoirity of Waeco cruise systems generally work with Bongo's that have 'traditional' mechanical throttle control (you'd need to clarify this but I think that it was the later model years , where they changed over to 'fly by wire' where you would need to use a Waeco MS800)

The MS50,MS300 & MS400 should be ok for general Bongo use.

Do a search of the forum as I know this has been discussed before

& have a look HERE

I believe last_tuesday is correct about the later models using the'fly-by-wire' instead of the traditional cable method. You can still use the Waeco unit but it will need to connect to the accelerator pedal rather than then the linkage by the fuel pump. I've got a MS-50 which is the cheaper model & it works perfectly.
