Lost cruise

[1994IDI]

Anyone able to point me in the right direction for where to start diagnosing a loss of cruise control? It just stopped working all at once.

90% of the time it's the brake switch

I have the same problem on the truck i just bought haven't had the time to diagnose it but from what I am told the play to start is the cable that runs from the throttle to the module is weak and will tend to break.

If all else fails, and it's not one of the above, read the tech article on this site. That might shed some light.

Yes, the horn does still work. Thanks for all of the feedback guys. I have not been around the truck for several days as we are out of town right now. I'll get back with more info when I get back.

I'm back at this guys. I read the tech article, but am clueless as to some of the terminology. Can anyone put into some lameman's terms as to where to start. It sounds like the brake switch is a frequent culprit? Any help?
