Cruise Control

[College Student]

What might be wrong?
My cruise control works randomly, i was wondering what could be wrong.
Any questions ask away.
No lights flash except the air bag sensor light which has been on longer than the cruise problem has existed

I had the same issue where it would work when it felt like it and more than half the time it would not. I replaced the switch that attaches near your brake reservoir which shuts down your cruise control when you hit the brakes, and it works every single time now. It only cost $10 or $15, so it might be worth it to give it a try.

do you have pictures and a part number

Start by checking your brake fluid. If it is too low, the cruise won't work.

Here are some threads to check out concerning the switch:
