    The auto level system does what you describe if the rear suspension is in the preset level position. Light comes on when button pressed and nothing happens. Or it is too high - say you leveled it with a passenger or load and now you are trying to reeve it. Then the compressor will not operate. Another thing to be aware of is the system does not operate ir the side stand or main stand are down, the bike is not in neutral. Hope these help. Check out the Facebook Suzuki Cavalcade group.

SOURCE: cruise control wont work

Has the clutch safety switch been bypassed? - Does the bike start without the clutch pulled in? if so replace the clutch safety switch, most common cause of the Cruise not working, Remember that you must be in 5th gear, clutch & break levers out, foot off the break pedal, throttle twist grip not below idle - into the spring loaded portion below idle (There is a switch in there to turn the cruise to standby), The cruise switch on the right switch block is on. Any more than this, refer to www.suzukicavalcade.com and join the email group.

The wires from the Stator to the Regulator/rectifier do get very hot. Remember that the stator always puts out maximum power and the reg/rect shunts what ever your bike does not use to ground. A very wasteful thing to do, but that is what Suzuki decided to do with most of their models. There is a yahoo email group for these bikes joined through a link at suzukicavalcade.com - try it.

I was hoping to find you an free Owner Manual, but there isn't one.

Normally Fog Lights can only come on with Low Beams or Sidelights to reduce glare. I can't imagine that they are supposed to come of with directional blinkers because it would confuse anyone at the front of the bike.

1985 Suzuki GV 1400 Cavalcade LX common issues

The main issues with these bikes are: 1. Charging system - both the stator and regulator/rectifier last about 40,000 miles. 2. The original fork brace needs to be replaced with a solid one - available from www.cademaster.com 3. Replace the original factory plug in the secondary (by riders left foot) with a "Tracy" plug and keep an eye on the oil level every 500 miles. Otherwise these bikes are great. Parts are still available from either Cademaster or cade king. Check out Facebook Suzuki Cavalcade group.

Left key on, nothing lights up jump started and hooked up cables back wards, not getting power any place

There is a "Circuit Breaker" located beside the battery, small red button in the center of a white circular topped unit with a opaque - not quite see through - push it down while listening for a "click", if it does, then that is your problem.
