cruise control prob
 

I have a 99 honda accord EX, manual drive, well sometimes my cruise control
doesnt work, it will not come on or engage at all, but heres the wierd part
it only happens maybe 3 out of 10 times. Still a problem, what could be
failing, i took the swtich apart and played with it but still have the same
prob.

Possible vehicle speed sensor failing. If the speedometer is electronic
it would be erratic at the same time. Should return an error code, so
have the codes read.

OK, this might seem silly but I had a similar problem with my 5 speed Civic
EX. Once I made sure my feet were not near the clutch and/or brake pedal,
no more problem. The cruise works like a charm, knock on wood. Good
luck.

Sometimes the brake/clutch cancel switches are adjusted a little too close
and will prevent the cruise control from coming on. Easy to check - when you
do get the cruise control working see that you can brush either pedal with
your foot without kicking the cruise off.

50 times it will eventually come on.
