Default Why doesn't my Cruise Control work on my 97 SC2?

The light comes on when switched on, but it will not engage when the "set" button is pressed (at highway speed).

I'm thinking the control module needs to see the input from the PCM re: speed, plus be able to acknowledge that the brake, clutch cruise switch, etc so I am thinking that there may be a broken connection down there. I am tey yet to look up any wiring diagrams.....or is this a deal where you just chuck the cruise control control module and put in a new one. Car throws no codes

I'd try some CRC electrical contact cleaner under the buttons on the switch first, derf. The LW 200 I had didn't want to work correctly and the steering wheel was kind of funky looking, so I raised the switches as far as I could and sprayed the CRC in there and started rocking the switches. Sum beech started working and worked just fine after that! Good luck with it. You'll need it.

I have some and will try over the weekend. Thx for the idea. I rarely use cruise control so it may indeed be as you say

Cool! Just let me know if it works. If it doesn't work, I don't need to hear about it. LOL
