So my cruise control used to work and one day it just decided to...stop... I finally decided to work on fixing it tonight so I went out to the car to inspect a couple things. I went to the control unit first since it is the easiest to get to. (Above the ECU above the glove box, Fuse 6 is GOOD) Pin 1 has 12v with the key on RUN. Pin 9 has a good ground as well. I checked continuity between the blue/green wire and 12v when you push the switch to accel/set and it has continuity when pushed. My next step tomorrow morning will be to check that the switch has no shorts in it. Then check the clutch switch. Then see if the control unit is getting a signal from the gauge cluster. When I check for the speed signal at the connector for the control unit, I'll be using the blue/ylw wire. Do I need to be checking for a resistance or voltage? I already pulled the control unit out of it's case and nothing is obviously blown up. Anything else I can check without replacing stuff with "known good parts" ?
