The cruise control fuse is a 15 amp fuse located at position #17 in the fuse block. That's the only fuse I see in that circuit according to My wiring diagram. I hope this helps. Take care.
Check with a Dealer for a Recall on the Cruise unit and park the car outside until you do. There were fire hazards for some year models. Get your Vin# checked to see if the upgrade was missed. The Dealers installed an inline fuse to repair these.
First I think it should be said that whatever is wrong with your cruise control it is definitely NOT caused by a fuse. Fuses do not cause electrical circuits to fail. Failing electrical circuits case fuses to blow.
With that said, there are 2 fuses that affect your cruise control operation: Fuse #6 (10 Amp) and Fuse #7 (15 Amp), both of which are located in the instrument panel fuse block. Fuse #6 is the power feed to the cruise control servo and Fuse #7 is the brake lamp fuse, which provides power to let the cruise control servo know when you have applied the brake.
Fuse number 1 (15amp blue fuse) located under the dash is the primary fuse for the cruise control servo...check that first...Also, if i recall correctly there was a mandatory recall notice issued in 2005 for this model related to cruise control failures. Check with your local Lincoln Mercury dealer for more information. You will need your VIN number to see if the repairs on your vehicle have been made. Good luck, i hope this helps.
Have seen this problem before. You need to look under dash at brake pedal and find a blue switch with plunger contacting pedal, disconnect connector and jump with a peice of wire and drive to see if cruise works and if it does replace deactivation switch this should get you going.
Your manual should tell you that. Also check your brake light switch by the brake pedal. It also disengages the cruise. If it is bad the cruise will not work but the brake lights may still work.
