I have a 1991 GMC Sierra 1500. The other day the cruise control kicked out on it's own. I pressed resume and it was fine. I pressed the brake to kick out the cruise and it never worked again after that. I have never had any problems with it until now. Any thoughts?

check the brake switch on the upper arm of the brake pedal, if its bad your cruise control won't work because the truck thinks your pushing the brake pedal. I had the same problem in mine, it's a $30 part that takes about a half hour to fix
Your cruise won't engage because your brake lights are on permanently. These are on permanently probably because your brake switch is faulty. It's located near the top of your brake pedal.
Check your cruise control fuse or relay. It will be in your owners manual. If fuse is good than the cruise itself may be faulty. Check continuity on cruise controler itself. If there is power, than the controller itself is bad and need to be replaced. If there is no power than it may be a faulty switch.
check rear wheel sylinders for moister. an indicator for a leak. replace it then bleed brakes. refill resivore should be fine then. check front calipers also or leaking line.
I did a continuity test on the brake switch and it works fine.
