I replaced the radio with a touchscreen "infotainment" radio. I decided not to use the steering wheel controls because I've read that needs another module. Got it all up and working but now the cruise won't engage (I can turn it on and off) and the heater won't blow heat. I'm going through checking fuses. The cig lighter fuse was blown. Would that also control the other systems?
Any other thoughts?

Update - passenger side vent blow hot, driver's side blows warm. I pulled the HVAC Batt fuse for 10 seconds. I'm going to try that again and leave it out longer to see if it recalibrates.
Brake light switch works for the brake lights - cruise still doesn't work

There are other feeds from the cigarette lighter circuit.

You should really get the integration module that allows operation of the steering wheel controls.

Heat is working now as well. Cruise is the only thing not working. Is it possible that the switch works for the light but not the cruise?

I believe that you may need that integration module to regain your cruise control.

Is there a possibility that the cruise won’t work without the steering wheel integration?

Not sure. Can you supply data on name & model of what radio was installed and potentially info of how mfgr addresses lack of steering wheel controls.

I was speaking to one of the companies that supply the integration modules. They said that it shouldn't affect the cruise control. I'm thinking there's a bad connection somewhere
