Hello,
I have a 97' 4.0 4x4 5 speed xlt Ranger.
The cruise control on my truck only works momentarily. I press the set/acc button and the dash light "cruise set" flashes but turns off instantly. I have run continuity tests on most all of my sensors and checked the resistance of my steering wheel buttons. I don't understand why the light shuts off immediately. It's as if the system allows it to engage but a sensor quickly shuts it off. I don't know if the motor is actually pulling on the throttle body cable, but I am looking to test that today.
Any thoughts?
