Check the connector at the cruise deactivator switch, located on the master cylinder. It should have battery power on the LG/RD wire in RUN via F11 in the underdash fuse panel.

Deactivator switch is a normally closed switch. If the circuit is open, the cruise is disabled.

Steve thank you for your help, I will check those connetions. Do you know if the computer would have that parameter burn out if the performance chip wasnt correct?

Is that the famous switch that catches the truck on fire when it fails? It burned several peoples garages down when the truck was parked inside.
