The cruise control was working fine, I had to cancel it due to traffic and when I tried to go back to cruise control later in the trip it would not work.
This works...the cruise is directly tied to the brake lights...when I replaced the brake and side light bulbs on my 2004 Santa Fe,,,the cruise started working with no other adjustments. It must complete a circuit or something.
A:2005 santafe: after searching internet besides the tail lite filaments as cause for malfunction of cruise control (cruise lite on but cannot set/or accelerate. I read a post by a Hyundai service tec that said every third santafe with that prob the switch on steering was faulty.
Two phillips screws removes the switch unit and unplug is easy from harness. There are two printed circuit boards that are perpendicular to each other and are electrically joined by four (4) soldered pins from one board to the other....a gentile wiggle of that joint revealed that the solder joints were broken on one or two of the four...... with a FINE solder tip you can re-solder those loose joints being very careful NOT to bridge one pin to another......repair 100%
I was having the same issue with my recently purchased 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe...Check your taillights/brake lights. Turns out, they are tied into the cruise control system and if one is out, the cruise control stops working. When I bought the vehicle, I knew the taillight was out, but did not know the cruise control was out. I still would not know they were tied together (and that I had unknowingly repaired the cruise control) if not for a post found here:

hope this helps :) and happy motoring!!!
My 2003 Elantra's cruise control has stopped working. (The "cruise" indicator lights up on the dash, but I can't set the speed.) As it happens, a while back I replaced the incandescent taillight/brake-light bulbs with brighter LED substitutes, and until I read your comment it never occurred to me that could be connected to the cruise control problem. Unfortunately, I don't recall whether the cruise control problem appeared at the same time, or before, or after, I installed the LED bulbs. What do you think: could that have caused the problem? It seems strange to think that it could be the problem, since the brake-light bulbs are always OFF when cruise control is operating.

Cruise control will not come on when the button is pushed. The light on the cruise control does not come on either
