Saved the pics you sent now just tell me how to fix that thing I don't think there is a Ford dealer close by

 

that part HAS to be instaled by ford, it is a recall, and needs to be put in to keep your car from catching fire even when parked, but it won't make the cruise work if not working now. check to see if the harness is hooked up,or burned, the linkage is hooked up on the throttle body, etc. do you have a airbag code flashing? does your horn work?

 

No airbag light and no the horn is not working
