Hello all, I recently notice that my cruise control is not functioning. I have a 93 1.8l v6 gs. When i press the cruise on button, the light comes on but when the set button is pressed on the steering wheel it does not do anything.
how do i go about troubleshooting this? Is it vacuum controlled? Does it use a relay/fuse?
if you have any advice what to start checking please let me know.
thanks

There is a fuse and the cruise is vacuum controlled. I would check the fuse and then the vacuum line. The diaphram can also go out, but I've not heard it to be very common that they fail.

Well fellows, the meter fuse is fine and the line from the vacuum unit under the hood is connected to the manifold.
Is there anymore connections under the hood or can someone point me to a diagram of the crusie control system.
thanks

Check for a blockage or kink in the vac line. Basically (with the car running) disconnect the hose from the cruise unit and see if there is a good amount of vac suction against your finger. If not, the hose might be plugged or kinked, or the small vac port into the intake might be plugged with crud. I hope that helps. It's a pretty simple circuit to diagnose.
