thanks for reply.

For the European Yaris, you need to use an aftermarket cruise control, since the European ECM doesn't seem to have the function built in.

Check out the link below. This Belgium based company makes an aftermarket CC for European Toyotas:

thanks for quick reply, if you are right, toyota has made 2 differenct ECM only for Cruise function?? very strange. i'm studing toyota thought, and in my car i have all predisposition for all optionals. This thing means that toyota don't make too many productive lines for different cables, why they should do this for ECM?

I don't know why they have different programs for the ECMs for the different markets. I would think that people all over the world would appreciate cruise control.

And i think that the funcion of "cruise control" in ECM of european models, is only turned off, and it can be activated.
