New Guy Needs Help

Hey Everybody,
I have a couple questions I was hoping to get help with. I have a 1996 F-350 7.5 quad cab long bed.

1. Should my cruise control buttons have lights in them?

2. When I switch from my rear tank to my front tank my gas gauge goes to E. Any suggestions for trouble shooting this?

Thanks for any suggestions!

No lights on buttons or dash for cruise.

If its not working check your brake lights, if all good then I would pull the top off the servo motor box and see what that looks like. If that's good make sure the motor isn't just stuck.
