I have experienced a shut-down of the cruise control on my 2001 s40 after running for an hour or so at freezing temperatures or below. This has occurred on several occasions and can be corrected by shutting down the car and waiting five minutes or so. Start up again and the cruise works fine. I think this is due to freezing of a cable in a sheath, which then melts when the engine heat is not being reduced by wind chill at speed.
Anyone had a similar experience...is there a fix?
