Problems with Cruise Control on Ford Explorer 92

Hi everybody i have a explorer and my Cruise Control doesn't work, the ask is why ?, how possibly problems ?

if you're TPS is bad it may not work (this would bring on the CEL too)

start by checking the fuse, and the mechanical linkage from the Throttle body to the cruise control unit. also check that you're center brake light is working (i know this sounds weird, but a bulb out opens the break light circuit and may cause the cruise control to think you're stepping on the brake, thus disabling it)

oh, and there are a million other possibility too. if the things i mentioned don't work, start looking for a wiring diagram.. if you really like cruise that much (never been a fan of it myself)

also if you're speedometer isn't working that could be a problem.

In addition to the things rhauf suggests, it seems that a lot of these are caused by a vacuum hose coming loose. Pop the hood and trace the vacuum lines from the intake to the cruise servo, then from the servo to the dump valve and see if any have fallen off or are plugged or something.
