SOURCE: cruise control

Here's the situation, there was a factory recall on the cruise control module for Explorers and Expeditions during recent years and your vehicle may be included. This is very important because in some vehicles this faulty cruise control module sparked and caught on fire. Here's what you do, call the Ford dealer in your area(service) with the vin number to your vehicle, they will tell you if your vehicle was under this factory recall and if it is they will replace it for free. I would be very careful as you may have one of these faulty modules. Hope this helped.

SOURCE: 2003 Denali Yukon, no Brake lights, no Cruise Control, fuse is OK

Check your brake light switch at the pedal. This controls the lights and disengages the cruise when stopping. I'd look there before I go anywhere else. There may just be a wire loose. Could be a simple fix.

Good Luck and hope this helps.

SOURCE: trailer brake controller problem

I found the problem. Talking with a technician from the controller company, we determined that it was a fuse problem. I found that the fuse to the CHMSL was blown.

this would not be a fuse problem if one side works, your problem will be in the wiring to the light, if light works on the truck then check wiring on trailer and check where wiring starts off from rear of truck the green wire is the wire to check this does rt side signal and brake heres a website to help you. it shows a diagram of trailer wiring..hope this helps.www.etrailer.com

My cruse control suddenly stopped working for my 2004 Chevrolet Trailblazer

There are several possible reasons why your cruise control may have stopped working. Here are some steps you can take to diagnose the issue:
  1. Check the cruise control fuse: The first thing to check is the fuse that controls the cruise control system. Refer to your vehicle's owner manual to locate the fuse box and find the specific fuse for the cruise control. If the fuse is blown, replace it with a new one.
  2. Check the brake light switch: The cruise control system is designed to disengage when you step on the brake pedal. If the brake light switch is faulty, the cruise control system may not work. You can test the switch by pressing the brake pedal and checking if the brake lights come on. If the brake lights don't come on, you may need to replace the brake light switch.
  3. Check the speed sensor: The speed sensor is responsible for detecting the vehicle's speed and communicating it to the cruise control system. If the speed sensor is faulty or dirty, the cruise control system may not work. You can test the speed sensor with a multimeter or take your vehicle to a mechanic to have it tested.
  4. Check the cruise control module: If all the above steps check out, the problem may be with the cruise control module itself. The module may be faulty and may need to be replaced. You can take your vehicle to a mechanic to have the module tested and replaced if necessary.
It's always recommended to consult with a certified mechanic or technician to diagnose and fix issues related to the cruise control system in your vehicle. They will have the expertise and necessary tools to troubleshoot the problem and provide the appropriate solution.

2005 Silverado brake lights on tail not working, cruise out , bulbs and fuses ok

Brake light switch? The cruise and brake lights problems are likely related. The cruise control cuts out when you press on the brakes. I had a van where the cruse wouldn't engage. Then someone pointed out my brake lights were always on. It was the switch.

Brake lights went out so I changed a blown fuse,now the brake lights wont shut off,so I replaced the brake switch at the pedal and still have the same issue,lights wont go off.

Which fuse did you replace ? The one in the under hood fuse box or one of the two in the I/P fuse box . Do the CHMSL - center high mount stop lamps work correctly ? Here is a description how they work .
Stop Lamps
The STOP LP 25 A fuse in the underhood fuse block supplies battery positive voltage to the normally open stop lamp switch. When the driver presses the brake pedal, the switch contacts close and battery positive voltage is supplied to both the STOP 15 A fuse and the CHMSL 10 A fuse in the I/P fuse block, and to the turn signal/hazard module. The turn signal/hazard module then supplies voltage to both of the trailer rear turn/stop lamp supply voltage circuits. The voltage from the CHMSL 10 A fuse is to the center high mounted stop lamp (CHMSL) and the trailer jumper harness. The voltage from the STOP 15 A fuse is to the stop lamps, throttle actuator control (TAC) module, and the cruise control.
Does yours have trailer light hook up ? If so check trailer wiring connector for corrosion . Also check the turn signal / hazard module .

My all wheel drive subaru is now a fwd only. cruise control quit working I pulled the cruise fuse put it back in. the cruise and awd drive worked for about ten minutes then stopped working again. I am at...

Check that the cruise control module fuses are not blown in the fuse panel. Also make sure your stop lights are working; cruise controls are designed to disengage when the brakes are applied, and one method of sensing that is to monitor brake light current.


then reset your four wheel drive again

All lights work and brake light at top works. brake lights on bottom left and right don't work. It was hook up to trailer wires connection. going down the road and when you turn on the right turn signal...

Check a few things...
- The bulbs
- Check for ground at brake lamp connectors
- Check your wiring at the connectors for power
- Check for another fuse blown
- Do not hook up the trailer until you fix the ground problem on the trailer
- On some models, there is a module to control the rear/trailer lighting system. There may be a problem in the module.

1997 TOYOTA 4RUNNER SR5 WON'T SHIFT OUT OF PARK

I had the exact same problem. It is the fuse for the brake lights ( a red 10 amp fuse) that is blown. It was the wiring in the trailer that caused it to blow. Replace that fuse and it will work perfectly!!

1997 TOYOTA 4RUNNER SR5 WON'T SHIFT OUT OF PARK

You have a blown fuse for the brake lights. The shifter will not come out of park if the brake lights do not work. The crusie will not work, either. I will bet that there is a short in your trailer wiring, and it popped the brake light fuse. Easy to check; get in, start it up, push the brake. If there are no brake lights, the fuse is your problem. Please respond if this helps. Thnaks for choosing FixYa.
