check your furses first off..then look under thehood down by your 2 main fuse boxes..there will be a grounding strap and alittle black wire that grounds out also..if its broke your cruise will not work.

check your taillights, I know that if one of the lightbulbs are burned out it wont work. Thats what was wrong with mine, my small brake light on the spoiler was out.

INTERESTING!!
My cruise stops working intermittantly and I could never figure out why. Sometimes if I stop and restart the engine, it'll work again.
