There is an additional recall for the cruise control. The original recall added a fuse to prevent fires.

The new recall is about fixing a half dozen problems which include the transmission and brake lights and false dash warnings. It involves 16 million assorted years and models. It would certainly be a good idea to contact the dealer about your problem. The recall is free.

Crusie control does not work on 2011 gmc sierra 1500 and I've already replaced the switch?
If the switch is replaced,then it can be wiring issue or faulty cruise control board.But as the switch is replaced,get the voltage at the switch tested to confirm the switch is actually receiving voltage.If no voltage received at switch power supply wire then ,apply external 12 volt power to the cruise control switch wire and then see if cruise control comes ON.If yes,then you know wiring is issue.

My all wheel drive subaru is now a fwd only. cruise control quit working I pulled the cruise fuse put it back in. the cruise and awd drive worked for about ten minutes then stopped working again. I am at...
Check that the cruise control module fuses are not blown in the fuse panel. Also make sure your stop lights are working; cruise controls are designed to disengage when the brakes are applied, and one method of sensing that is to monitor brake light current.


then reset your four wheel drive again

Ford 4-wheel drive help
This is for 4x4 shifter on the floor.
In the front of the truck on the axle there's a plastic cover with 2 10mm bolts remove it and spray down the shifting actuator it operates on vacuum. You might have to pull it in four wheel and check to see if the vacuum pod is engaging the shift lever on the axle. Then again you might have to replace it very easy to do. But I would spray it down with some WD-40 it should work.

Cruise control quit working
The tip that connects the accelerator cable to your throttle for the cruise control may be broken. I have had that problem before. The light won't come on cause your cruise isn't engaged

Help... My four wheel drive High or Low will not engage on my 1995 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer edition. This is engaged "on the fly". The light comes on indicating they are engaged but they it is not.
Try at full stop in neutral switching to 4 wheel auto ,give it a few seconds and if you don,t here it engage try putting it into reverse and then back into neutral and then into drive. If still dosen,t work tranny switch is likely sticking . service or repair.

1992 explorer automatic hubs.Button in dash does not engage $ whe
I have the same problem with my 92' four liter explorer. I believe it has something to do with the transfer case motor behind the tranny. Under a pinch, I tapped on and around the transfer case
and tf motor, and the four-wheel drive engaged. I suspect it might be from loose wiring or a bad contact of some sort.
