Cruise Control?

Post by MX-3 for Me »

Just a quick question,
Does anyones cruise control work? Mine hasnt worked since I bought my car. Just wondering if the reason could be something simple?
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated :)
That except "have you ever heard of a mechanic"
Thanks! :)

Look in your engine bay and make sure that the vacuum line from your cruise control is connected to your intake manifold...

For the guy whos accelerate button doesn't work.. Take the center of the steering wheel off and make sure that the connectors are clean and not broken. I punched mine once after I got in a wreck and broke the connector. I've forgotten what I did to fix it, but it was simple. I also cleaned the copper connectors and it is much easier to get it to work now.
For the guy whos doesn't work, cruise problems could be cuased by several things. Start by checking thevaccum hose and then make sure all wires are connected. Then check all the fuses. If that isn't those things you'll need to be pretty mechanically inclined to search out the problem.
