Cruise not working after removing upper Intake plenum to replace all the fuel lines.

[Angry Possum]

Hey all, I just replaced my fuel lines recently, I had to remove the upper intake plenum to get to the lines etc. The cruise worked prior and effortlessly. I checked all the vacuum lines, cruise control vacuum hub thingy etc but it's still not operating. What could I have unplugged and what should I look for, seems I obviously unplugged something. It's all connected correctly at the throttle body. Traced the vacuum line to the cruise hub. All good. Maybe something I may have unplugged under the truck.

You didn’t mention checking the fuse. Here’s the diagram in case you don’t have it.

Check and make sure that your brake lights are still working.

That would be a good check.

The taillights definitely work. That was the first thing I checked. I'll check the brake lights out later, thanks

@RobbieD The Brake lights work. I guess I can check a fuse. Anything else to look for?

If you have a vacuum gauge make sure you are getting vacuum to the servo.

Check the hose that goes to the brake pedal dump valve and make sure it is connected.

Check vacuum line routing, I had an issue that drove me nuts where the hood hinge would pinch the feed line off as it ran over the top of the brake booster. Everything tested great in the driveway but it wouldn't work right on the road.

Make sure you didn't move the throttle cable going to the servo too much and damage it.

Great info thanks. I was down in that lower area where the vacuum to the brake pedal is when I was attempting ro remove the original fuel lines in the engine bay area. It's very possible I could have pulled the vacuum line for the brake pedal. Also, I didn't check the fuse yet, but I will in a lil while.
