Cruise Control on 2001 Dodge Stratus SE stopped working. The green light comes on but it won't work. The fuse isn't labeled in either of the fuse boxes to see if that is the problem and I didn't get the manual with the car. Any suggestions???? How can you fix a broken cruise control? The cruise light will stay on but as soon as I press "set" it shuts it off.

Have you recently had any brake work done? I had a 05' freestyle that did the same thing.. when you tap the brake the cruise kicks off right? so if your brake pedal is sticking or not returning fully to the up position, the cruise will immediately kick off like you applied the brake. Check to see if your brake lights are staying on when you release the brake. Let me know what happens, please and good luck.

Catherine, Check your cruise control fuse as a first step. Could be a bad brake switch, faulty vacuum line, faulty multi function switch,etc., may have to have a good Tech. diagnose and estimate repair.

2005 dodge stratus cruise does not work but light comes on.

first check to see if brake lights work, because brake light switch will deactivate cruis control when you press brake pedal to slow down stop.if brake light switch okay, dealership has to check out cruise control since pcm and vechicle speed sensor control the cruise control also.

2006 dodge stratus won't crank and cruise control won't light

Must not have been much of a mechanic. If the engine runs and sounds fine sometimes and other times it doesn't then it does not sound like a mechanical problem with the engine. Sounds more like a issue with either the ignition system or fuel system.

2001 Dodge stratus cruise control dosen't work

One thing to check is the micro switch on the brake pedal arm, I had the same problem.
For some reason the switch came loose and it wasn't being depressed.
All I had to do is re adjust it so it would depress the plunger on the switch when the brake was not applied and activate the switch when the brake pedal was depressed.
I set it to the sensitive side so when you barley tap the brake pedal it shuts off the cruise control.

Hope this helps.

How to locate and replace the flasher in 2001

Sounds as if the hazard flasher is going out. The only problem is that I don't know where it is located. Since yu said that sometimes it works, try it and see if you can find out where the clicking noise is coing from. It should be from somewhere near the steering column. Replace it.
