Weird Cruise Control Behaviour

[crash-harris]

Cruise control finally works! ...kinda.

On the way back from our Memorial Day work weekend at our favorite campsite, I decided to attempt to use the cruise control again. This time it worked! BUT! The Set/Accel switch is functioning as the resume switch and the Off and Coast switches are both functioning as set/accel. The Resume switch does nothing. The only way to turn it off is to tap the brakes and I'm not 100% sure the On button is actually turning it on. I also noticed that my horn stopped working which previously was due to only 2 lag bolts connecting the column to the firewall and not grounding well.

I did save the link to the cruise control diagnostic info, but wanted to get opinions first. Ideas?

Sounds like the ring contact thing is bad. Forget the proper name.

May want take apart horn pad clean switches and clock ring

The clock ring and contacts are clean. I made sure of that when I swapped steering wheels and was tracking down my no horn issue. The horn pad and switches got swapped as well. Before the swap the cruise control did nothing.

Here's to hoping the switches just need cleaned!

I don't have the values handy, but you can ohm the horn pad at the harness plug under the dash.

Was it a cruis column?

Was it a cruis column?

I've never seen a difference

It's a non-tilt column but the turn signal switch has the copper contacts for both the horn and cruise control ring on the steering wheel. Plus (obviously) the cruise control module under the dash.
