Cruise control question

Apr 12, 2006 5 Replies

I have a 2000 Dodge Ram 1500 Van, V8 5.2L. When I press the cruise control switch, I see a green "Cruise" light on the cluster. But the cruise doesnt work.



I checked the fuse boxes, both next to the brake booster and the one next to the instrument cluster. They dont seem to have a fuse for the cruise control.



What should I look out for next ? Any tips will be appreciated.



Condition of vacuum lines going to the cruise control unit - or a vacuum leak somewhere else in the system.

Did you just buy the vehicle or have you had it and the cruise control stopped working?

I just bought the vehicle and it wasnt working then.

I was asking because after I bought my truck I was fumbling around around with the cruise control and it was not working either. Till I figured out I was not hitting the buttons correctly. I have had many cruise controls also. It seems they all work differently

I finally pushed the cruise ON/OFF button, saw the cruise light come on then pushed the SET button and it engaged. But that was just me, maybe you did as I did and thinking it was not working
