I have a '97 Honda Civic 5 speed manual. The cruise control recently just stopped working. The light ON the cruise button on the left side of the dash does not light up anymore. I have checked the fuse and it looked fine but replaced it anyway just to be safe. I have a feeling that it is the button itself that is broken because i accidentally used it to switch off the cruise because my model didn't come with a cancel button, only set/slower resume/faster button on the steering wheel.
