I’ve got an 80 K10 and the cruise control transducer is bad. It’s a two terminal Cardone 36-101 part, and I’ve searched the interwebs and have only found some on some sketchy websites. Does anyone have a recommendation on where to purchase one? Thanks in advance!

Idk if its my transducer or not because i changed the lower speedo cable and gear and spun the in feed on the transducer and the output spun. I spun the cable from the transducer to the gauge and the needle moved but my speedo and cruise still wont work...

I know, from what I’ve seen they run around $100.



I picked mine up off ebay... $80 and it solved the no cruise control issue. Good luck finding them anywhere else. If you do happen to find one on a salvaged truck, chances are the electronics are wasted from sitting in the elements. 80's technology and moisture don't mix well.
