Cruise Control not working

[mikeykey]

As the title suggests, the cruise control is not working and I'm wondering where to start first. I recently (within 2 months) replaced the turn signal / hazard / cruise control module thing in the steering wheel column. It has worked since then, but just recently completely stopped working.

Any advice?

start with the fuse.

 

[mikeykey]

It intermittently works. Kinda weird. It worked for half the ride home today, then just stopped working.

Fuse is good

do you know if your break lights work correctly? what year is your tahoe?

 

[mikeykey]

Yeah, brake lights work. Its a 1999 4-door.

all signs in my head are pointing to the brake switch.

when I replaced my multifunction switch I found that I had to jimmy with where it connects to to get it to work properly.

 

[mikeykey]

Yeah, I was thinking it might be the connection under the dash that the multifunction switch plugs into. The one with the bolt right through the middle of it. Chevy could have done a lot better on designing that one! it was a pain in the ass to get to

you might want to check every fuse in the cab...and make sure both your brakes are working..I know you said you checked...but at night, have someone turn on your lights and make sure all three brake lights are working correctly, separately from your tail lights.

Brake lights work. Plus it intermittently works, which suggests maybe a electrical control module or something. I don't really even know if there is such a thing on these. Anyone?

mine doesnt work either. i was told that i had to replace the entire cruise unit which was like $100+. never got around to it.

 

[mikeykey]

I use it so much, i'd pay $100 for it. The problem is I have no clue where it is.

It's been nearly 8 years. How much more time do you need

I am having the same issue. Has anyone figured it out? I have a 96 GMC 1500 conversion van.
