My cruise stopped working on my 1991 GMC Sierra 1500 while I was driving. I did a continuity test on the brake switch and it works fine. Any ideas?

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.

Cruise control will not engage consistently

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

Crusie control does not work on 2011 gmc sierra 1500 and I've already replaced the switch?

If the switch is replaced,then it can be wiring issue or faulty cruise control board.But as the switch is replaced,get the voltage at the switch tested to confirm the switch is actually receiving voltage.If no voltage received at switch power supply wire then ,apply external 12 volt power to the cruise control switch wire and then see if cruise control comes ON.If yes,then you know wiring is issue.

I have a 1992 gmc sierra,the cruise control still doesnt work after replacing the box and switch, is there a seperate fuse or trans relay?

The brake light switch can prevent the cruise from working.
On the cars there is a 5amp cruise fuse so I would think there is one for trucks too.
You may have to get a shop manual to get the diagrams to check the circuits and have a test procedure.

1990 GMC Sierra 1500 pickup. Windshield wipers, Cruise Control

May want to look at replacing the wiper circuit board.It is located on the firewall adjacent to the wiper motor and has a some what square black cover with 3 torx screws and wireing harness pluged into the side.We had a truck that every time you washed it the wipers would stay on until it dryed out.You can try removing it and spaying it down with contact cleaner just watch the brease on the two contact tips.Well hope this helps.

Cruise control wont work

normally the brake switch is the issue with these trucks. it is located under the dash where the brake pedal meets the linkage to the brake booster.
