cruise control

I have a '99 4x4 ext. cab. F 150 xlt, 4.6. My cruise contol buttons just stopped workin all of a sudden one day after workin perfectly fine previously to that day. Besides checking fuses, can anyone give some places to start looking. Honestly i havent checked anything yet, i dont like messing with electrical parts, i know it can be a nitemare, at least thats my own personal experience with older cars. thank you

Check the switch on the master cylinder for wetness. If it's wet replace the switch with a new one.

I had the same problem and replacing the switch fixed the cruise.
