WHY CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK. CRUISE CONTROL FIX
If your cruise control does not work we will explain what are some of the most common reasons why cruise control does not work. We will demonstrate how to test cruise control switch buttons, we will also demonstrate how to test brake light switch. The most common reason why a cruise control does not work is either faulty switch or brake light switch. Of course, there are other reasons why cruise control may work and we will explain some in the video.

From Joe Gannon the appliance doctor. He recommended a damp wipe with white vinegar. I used a paper towel to accomplish this. In addition I left the paper towel on the switch overnight. It’s now been 6 weeks of flawless operation. White vinegar a mild acid, cleaned the contacts sufficiently to restore normal operation. cheap and easy to try ! Yea to Joe !!!!!! 2016 Chrysler Town & Country.

[@YoungMaliMusic]

Thanks man this helped me. My cruise control wasn’t engaging when you mentioned the switch get them filled up with the dirt. Also other stuff like water and food that take my mind so I decided to tap my French push control button multiple times that may be squashed the dirt or whatever that was in between so now it’s working just fine. Thank you so much.

[@Johnsmith12386]

Press and hold for a few seconds (+) and (-) buttons - that is how I reset my cruise control on Dodge Ram 1500 year 2017. It works !!! I have done it while driving - be careful! Try it others way. Good luck.

2013 Chrysler 300s cruise control wasn't working. Not faults, bad fuse, or bad relay. Control switch on brake pedal malfunctioned. Gave the switch arm a couple strikes (push back with finger and let it go) works good.

I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee 2012. I was tweaking some settings using JScan and ended up losing the cruise indication coming up on dash. I checked all buttons are getting registered as per this video. Brake switch is also functional. Any clues what might went wrong? Also reset the ECM/ECU but didnt work out. Any help is welcome

[@blakkatsound]

great video's, but I have a question, for newer vehicles, does the Security gateway Module need to be by passed first when when using the the Autel Scanners MaxiCOM? or is it as simple as using the regular OBD2 port? thank you.

[@zaidameen1541]

Mine was not working I had oil over due I did a reset, after that it didn’t work so I saw a video the guy said press the wide blank button above the On/Off and RES+ button pressed it a few times and tried pressing the On/Off button it started working I still have airbag sign and my cruise is working now 😊

[@PackedFunk]

2001 Chevy Van. Cruise works perfect until headlamps turned on. No cruise control with headlamps on?? Thanks for help!!

[@Tarnished9200]

Modules use the brake pedal to disengage the cruise control when depressed. No signal to stop cruise control no functionality for it to run.

[@d.j.robinson9424]

super helpful, great video 👍👍💚

[@MrSupaMark]

Would the break light still come on if the break switch isn't working. I don't have that tool to diagnose it.

[@headliner48]

I pushed across the whole black bar above the button and fixed it in a couple seconds

[@peppermint3688]

There is no dedicated fuse for the cruise control, it’s controlled by the clock spring behind the steering wheel

[@Khaled-if4xs]

Thank you brother

[@rael5469]

My cruise control fails to engage when it is hot outside. The problem is intermittent. However this year the problem did not occur until just today, July 3rd, even though we've had 100 degree days before now. But during the fall, winter, and Spring, the cruise control works reliably. But when it gets warm to hot outside it gets intermittent or doesn't work at all. Have any of you had this problem, and if so how did you repair it? Thank you.

[@jerryheberlie6790]

I have a 2001 Buick Century that does the same thing and can't figure it out!!!!

[@rael5469]

@@jerryheberlie6790 Another person told me that the steering wheel wiring goes through a "clock spring" assembly which allows the wires to turn with the steering wheel. He said that in his case he gave the steering column a whack and it fixed it. My cruise control wouldn't engage the other day.....I gave it a whack and it fixed it. So there are videos on how to replace the clock spring assembly in your steering wheel. Good luck.

I have a jeep jk wangler you can turn the cruise control switch on and set your speed, it will set but will only stay on for only about 20 to 30 seconds and kicks off, you can hit resume and it will go back to the speed that was set but eventually kicks off again, any ideas?

[@dionysus2006]

You can turn your cruise control on through the menu system too if you want to troubleshoot to see if it is switches

My nissan altima 2.5 has cruise control issue. It engages and works fine till the car is below 100kmph. As soon as the car reaches 100kmph speed... the cruise disengages and cruise set light starts to flash or blink fast. The cruise does not engage after this till the car is stopped, shut off and restarted after 10 seconds. No check engine light. Any idea?

[@garymorris1856]

Where is fuse for cruise control, Chevrolet, 2010 HHR?

[@ramshacks9493]

I got no lights on my dash I got a 2012 300 I don’t think he brakes have to do anything with cruise control because rarely it’ll turn on and sometimes it won’t maybe you can make another video that’s it’s probably a fuse also

[@Justthemow]

The brakes lights turn off the cruise control when you. Depress the breaks

[@rael5469]

How could a "Brake Off" switch keep the cruise control from engaging? I would think the indication on the analyzer would show "Brake On" when it is off because a "Brake On" status would keep the cruise control from engaging.....not a "Brake Off" status.

Holy Cow! So I laughed so hard about this but decided to try it out. Cruise control was completely not working. Tried to reset by holding +/- for 10 seconds. It didn’t turn on.

[@matthewlatten5034]

Which fuse controls the cruise control?

[@muharem22]

If break lights are working then your break switch is good however cruise control switch (ccs)is seperate next to the break light switch and it could be bad. Hovever, my issue is i can't engage cruise at all by pressing the button onn/off its telling be it coukd either be the button or a fuse. Now i can't find anywhere what fuse controls cruise control. I have come across many videos mentioning a fuse but they don't show which fuse.

Change the brake light switch above the brake pedal. If that doesn’t work also change the cruise control switch which is next to the brake light switch.
