For those who followed my earlier post about my cruise control not working after installing a touch screen head unit....well, after having techs looking at it at my local dealership, turns out that my unit might actually be the problem, drawing too much power and, in turn, prevents the c.c. to work properly.
Does anyone have specs on how much power the OEM radio and c.c. needs to operate properly??, so i can fix the problem

Depending on what other jobs the fuse does, the rating is usually a good indicator.
Not sure what the current draw of the head unit has to do with CC. All devices on the car, draw what they draw, end of story. The normal result of too much draw is blown fuses or wiring getting too hot.
If you supplied the head unit with power independently, would that allow CC to work :question:

that's is exactly what ill be doing this weekend, putting a relay from an independant power source to see if it does make a difference. but i will also try to put back in the oem radio, before the relay, to see if that fixes the problem
will keep up to date as I figure it out

after more searching and testing, it might seem that the remote starter that i had installed would appear to be causing the issue. when starting my car normally, the cruise works fine, so far. and when i use the remote starter, BEHOLD!! nothing happens and it needs a couple of cycles (start and stop) normally to get back on track
anyone in this crazy world have an insight, would be GRATELLY appreciated

Remove the remote starter. :D

You could run a separate live direct from the battery and use the cable route shown in the fog light fitting instructions on mobis parts eu site
