Weird problem with my cruise and it's not related to the brake switch like everyone else online I tested the brake and clutch switch and regardless the switch nonfunctional would throw a light on the dash when I do a cruise test. When I perform the cruise test by pressing the button sequence. I get no flashes and so to make sure it wasn't the switches in the steering wheel being faulty I unhooked the bpps and then got 2 or 3 flashes depending on which brake switch I pull. Now, as I say it's intermittent so sometimes it just works and has no issue and goes along perfectly fine, I did replace the cruise unit with one from a newer 05-07 model year I didn't check what year the car was in the junkyard, but I had this issue with the old cruise unit too. I'm not entirely sure what to check next I was thinking clock spring but the horn, buttons, and (hopefully) airbag works. the SRS module can communicate with it but not immediately after a battery removal (don't know if that's relevant). All the brake lights work I even got a spare center light that I tested and it still has the issue. all my rear lights are normal bulbs not LEDs (except the OEM center light). I can provide more info if needed
If you have access to an OBD2 reader, you may find there is a problem elsewhere in the car that is interrupting the normal operation of the cruise control. Even if you swapped the cruise control out, if the fault lies elsewhere, its not addressing the original cause. best wishes.

This is most likely a wiring issue in the steering column. I advise you not to attempt to repair this on your own unless you are an experienced mechanic. If you do be very cautious as the airbag wiring runs through there and can be a very dangerous mistake.

I cant remeber the airbag light code but i was having the same problem with my husbands truck. I found out it was a cord under the drivers seat that had become slightly loose. It has to do with the seat belt or something. I just pushed it back in and the light went off. I read that in the 2002 explorers that the cord they used when manufacturing it was too short so if you happen to push the seat back to far it could come loose again home this helped .
SOURCE: Cruise control switch works sporatically.
Faulty product. I install cruise control for 6 years. One of the cables are hooked into the throttle and the other in the vaccuum actuator, since it is electronically controlled actuator, the object itself might be losing it's contents or frankly worded, is taking a nose dive. works much like a brake booster does.
Is it a PID system? (Proportional integral derivative system)
or is it just standard proportional?
That will play a factor.
If you just have one of those cheesy controls (cruise controls), than replace it, obviously it wouldnt of cost much. if it is not, check the actuator and replace it! Replace the Fuse, brush it with wire brush, clean up all connections.
You should be ready to roll!
Good Luck.

the clockspring in the steering column needs replacing I beleive there was a recall for that call the dodge dealer with your serial number to see if it was done on yours. you never know you may get it repaired for free.
