My cruise control isn't working....  It has worked fine up until last week when it quit working.  Fuse inside the car is not blown, vacuum lines appear to be ok and the electronic plug is plugged into the cruise control itself securely.  Any ideas?

Check the vacuum line very closely.

try lifting up on the brake pedal when you're trying to set the cruise. Maybe your brake switch is out of adjustment.

yes, more than likely the pedal is touching the cruise cancel mechanism that is under the dash, near the brake light switch.

make sure the pedal is not pushing the green plunger into the switch in its resting position.  but make sure that when the pedal is pressed it contacts it, otherwise the cruise will not shut off when you hit the brake, you will have to shut it down manually on the t/s stalk.

It doesn't run anymore.

Well I took a look at it today... turns out the big rubber vacuum line going into the cruise control had a hole melted in it.... long story short, the cruise now works.
