you gotta identify what you've got there.Right now it's sorta like expecting an answer for the color green on the richter scale.What's your vehicle,year,model,etc.

there is only one hose, ther other hose like object is actually set up to power? or grounded, i will have to go look for the number, i bought the truck used from a mechanic, the truck does have cruise control and i have used it before, but my guess is the hose wase never coneccted at the other end the whole time i have owend it.
