Hello sorry if this is in the wrong section but i didnt no were to put it.
I have an EF fairmont and the cruise control dont work, when you press the button on the left the light comes on the dash that says cruise, BUT!! when i go to set it (over 40 kph of course) i press the button and nothing happens.... just NOTHING!!  Does anyone have an idea or can anyone point me in the direction on what i should look at? Thanks

My EL Fairmont is the same. I'm thinking about trying a different cruise control module and if that doesn't work I'll replace the buttons on the steering wheel. My brake light switch is working properly as my brake lights all work.

Another thing I was told to do was to see if the cable from the cruise control module is in good condition - No kinks or broken outer casing.

Ok Gangster, this is my issue, if the cruise is turned off buy braking spacificly that poxy switch down buy ya pedal then that may be the issue, but for some reason this stupid switch is broken in a way that keeps the brake lights on????
 So ive been cruisen around with my brake lights constantly on  lol ooooops!! So hoping this is the only cause ill get a new one ASAP and see if it works FINGERS CROSSED

I bought a good second hand cruise control module today so tomorrow I'll put it in my EL and see how that goes. I've also heard that the clock spring can also be to blame for the cruise control not working....Anyone else heard that?
