1988 Crown Victoria cruise control not working
horn
The horn and Cruise Control are all connected to the Number 17 fuse, my guess would be that the fuse is blown.
YES, I had the same exact problem with my 88' Vic when my horn was sticking, after pulling the #17 fuse, the controls on my steering wheel were disabled. I can scan the Ford Owner's Operation manual for you if you'd like.
But experience and my owner's manual tell me different from what Fang says.
checked all fuses, all check good. thank you!

If your horn doesnt work either you have to remove the steering wheel and there is the connector for the horn/cruise control. If nothing broken there, check the clock spring too!

Although I don't think the cruise is an issue for safety, reach in under hood , or in grille area and find your horn(s) and just pull the connector off them temporarily, so they won't blow & put fuse back in and see if cruise starts to work again. It's not unusual for circuits to be labeled wrong or not at all in fuse panels. Then you can turn your attention to horn problem.
Testimonial: "Thanks for the help! and especially checking back in. However i didn't find out about it until now. Horn was a broken switch, all power on #17 fuse."

check fuse and also check the wire going to the horn and check the inside of the horn too and check the ground

have you checked for blown fuse(s).?
yes, all check good. thank you!
I'm not sure who posted for me before, but something to know is that the cruise control won't work on the Crown Vics if it is going less than 25 miles per hour. For me it wouldn't activate until after 30, it's simple, but there is a mininum.
