There is a switch on the brake pedal and one on the clutch pedal for this purpose. If either one of these switches fail, the cruise control electronics will believe that the brake or clutch pedal being pressed and thus refuse to engage the cruise control. The brake pedal switch is the same switch that turns on the brake lights when you step on the brakes. This switch has two sets of contacts, one set for the brake lights and one set for the cruise control. This means that even if your brake lights work, the switch may be bad. |

If the light in the instrument cluster comes on then the switches at the pedal are working just fine. Just as a test, does that light go out when you press the brake? Is your speedometer working? |

Re: Cruise not working
Yes, the light on the dash near the gauges does go out when i hit the
brakes.

Happened to me on my '92 when the electrical and vacuum connections at
the servo under the hood were left unplugged. Check the connections. bob Ted Bealmear wrote: > > Yes, the light on the dash near the gauges does go out when i hit the > brakes. And my spedometer is working. > |

Check the connections. bob If the vacuum connections were left unplugged the cruise light would drop off in 1 second after engaging the `set' button, in my test of course. I'm thinking the mechanisms is not working properly under the hood. Above speeds of 40 mph, peer outside and see if it's working, with the hood open, of course. T W |
