are you talking about the switch on the bottom of the reservoir?? also, i've got a spare column i can get the clockspring off of, but can i look at it and see something to tell me it's broke?? i'd hate to install this other one to find out it is bad also.

i did not buy the truck new, so i don't know what has/hasn't been done on the recall, i will find out this weekend. i put the other clockspring i had on truck last night and still have no cruise and airbag light flashing. so i don't know if i just have 2 bad clocksprings or some other problem.

A lot of trucks have burned up and that is why the recall.
I also changed my wiring so the power is off to the CC when the key is off plus I added another smaller fuse that is in series with it.

As I said above it could be a bad switch on the MC. Some of the members have said that the speed control started working again after Ford replaced it free.
Just go to any Ford dealer and pop the hood, it’s free and they can tell by looking if the recall has been done.
