Cruise died
Hi. My cruise control on an '04 work truck died randomly. Was working fine last week, this week, nothing. Looked for a relay for cruise, but there wasn't one. Fuse was good. Everything else tied into the cruise system was working, ABS, GEM etc. Don't have the time during the week to have dealer look at it. Out of warranty @ 56,000...

Are you having any other problems with the likes of the speedo or ABS acting up, or ABS light on????
Would the cruise engage, but then randomaly drop out????
If so, suspect a problem with the ABS speed sensors output signal. It's located atop the rear differential.
A scan tool that can monitor live feeds could check it. Also scan the computer for pending trouble codes.
Just some ideas to ponder.
Let us know what you find.

my '93 has intermittant cruise, will work fine for months then not work at all for a while. its working now but had quit around july and hadnt worked since until 2 weeks ago. its a nice surprize when it does work, cant worry to much about it on mine being almost 14 years old.

Check your brake light fuse and brake switch, clutch switch too if it's a stick. if they are bad, the cruise wont work. If your cruise was an added on option like mine was, it was have an inline fuse that will be somewhere in the wiring under the dash on the drivers side.

No ABS light, functioning properly. Brake lights work so I assume that rules out fuse and switch. Just won't engage. Hit ON and SET and the light doesn't turn on or anything. Just dead. Cruise was factory, but no other options really. Auto too...
