Good call, Matt!
However, we need to keep in mind that the O/P's truck is a six-oh!, according to his profile.
Skyhigh, it might be a good thing to fill our your signature file, and let folks know to what vehicle profile you are referring.

Is your ABS light on? If so it could be the Vehicle Speed Sensor on the rear axle. I was told this as a possible fix to mine, but I also don't have a functioning cruise control. However replacing the VSS took care of the ABS light. I'll be watching this to see if a solution is found.

Third brake is not staying on with no brake applied.
I'm by myself right now & can't tell if it comes on when applied, will check that later

The clock spring is in the steering column. Images here
If it turns out not to be that, it could be a few othr things as well. There is a wire off the master cylinder that had a recall. Or it could be the cruise control module itself. Thre is an old thread over in the SD forum here that goes through if it is not the clock spring. They never get to the bottom of this guys particular issue, but he has some good info in the thread.

I agree with ronjon, when mine wasn't working I replaced the clutch pedal position switch and that fixed the problem. It is located on the clutch pedal rod going thru the firewall. I purchased mine from rockauto, but don't remember how much it was. You can search the switch on here and it will come up with instructions on how to locate and fix it.

Are there symptoms to go with each potential problem? My horn works fine, so I don't think its the clock spring. Is there something that would tell us its the clutch position switch or possibly the wire on the master cylinder? Does anybody know of a way to test the cruise control module?
Thanks, Baatzy

Check the pressure switch on the master cylinder. If it's leaking it's probably bad. It is just a NC pressure switch, so it's easy to check.
I am not sure how the clutch switch is set up. Just check to see if it changes states when the pedal is pushed.

If you have had the recall done on the truck for the cruse control, there is a fuse in the wire coming off the master cylinder. See if it is popped. If it is, it saved you from a potentially nasty failure/fire.

I dont have a six speed but.....if the clutch disengaged switch was bad would you be able to crank the motor without engaging the clutch?
I have never driven a six speed superduty so I have not idea what the safety interlocks are.
