I have a 2001 ranger 4.0 automatic w/od and 40k cruise control

I have a 2001 ranger 4.0 automatic w/od and 40k miles. When I try to set the cruise control the light on the dash flashes and goes out when I press the set button and doesn't hold speed. I tried the self diagnostic. I got flashes after every step and I could hear the servo on the unit move but I didn't get any flashes after the original test to diagnose and pinpoint the problem. I would appreciate any input you can give. Sincerely,
Bob Vieira

    If there is a recall for my truck could you please tell me what it is and how to find it. My local dealer said there isn't one?

    I went to the Ford dealer and asked about recalls for cruise control problems and they said there wern't any on my truck. They wanted to charge me $100.00 to diagnose it. I'm out of work and have better things to use the money on. Thanks for the help and time.

Why isn't cruise control working?

Did you replace the cruise control release switch and relay? They are cheap from RockAuto. This sounds like your problem. (The relay is made so that it will not engage, if it will not release.)

Hyundai Overdrive wont engage

It is not suggested strip and twist wires. Better take it to an authorized service station to check what causes the problem.Is it OVERDRIVE SWITCH or CRUISE CONTROL MODULE faulty?
Over drive switch has three points. (5 to 4 selects "ON" or 5 to 6 selects "OFF").
Right click on following schematic, "save picture as" to a location in your PC so you have a ZOOM IN view.
