Question Auto-Cruise Dead

The auto-cruise in my '95 XLT is totally dead. I can find no blown fuses. The button on the sterring wheel do nothing.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to where to look for the problem?

Don't know about the Aerostars, if memory serves older Ford trucks have an issue with cruise not working when a brake light bulb is burned out. Check your brake lights, expecially the third brake light on the lift gate.

If the horn is similarly inoperative, the culprit is the clockspring mechanism - a wire winding that allow the steering wheel to turn while connecting all the electrical components in the steering wheel to the main wiring harness. Do a search under clockspring for further information.
