Cruise Control on my 1995 F-150 will not respond when
I push button on steering wheel..What should I be looking into first?

 

Check your fuses first.

 

I've had this problem, works one day then never again. I've checked the fuses first. There is a recall on this vehicle about the cruise. You can find it listed here on the forum. If ya figure out that this is the problem,(recall) let me know. I might actually takemine down and get it fixed.

 

Had the same problem with a Mark 7 Ihad to in a new brake light switch . 10 min. everyyhing worked fine

 

I bought a 94 F150 back in March the crusie didnt work. My brother in law who use to work for Ford took apart the control box. The gears were froze up, so hecleaned it and sprayed lube on the gears put it back together it worked fine. I dont use it a lot but the next time I did it wouldnt work again. I took it apart and it was froze up again I cleanened and re lubed the bearings at the motor on the inside. Then cafully poped the cap off the outside bearing cover ( carefull has a sping between bearing and cap) it had a slight surface rust on it. I cleaned it then put a light lube on it and on the cover to seal out moister pressed the cap back on and pinched it back tight with a pair of pliers ( it is like a bottle cap it has to be recapped to keep it on). Since then it has worked every time I needed it.

 

I have had the same prob for a while. Test your fuses first, as someone noted. Also, as in my case, the buttons' contacts get either dirty, or worn out. I popped the button covers off, and wiggled the buttons as they were pressed. The cruise control worked fine. So, in my case, I need to replace the little circuit boards assenblies, or the little buttons. The later is probably my best bet since I really can't find an outfit that would sell just the circuit boards assemblies. It seems that everyone I asked says that I have to buy the whole steering wheel, $180+! ... for a $2.00 circuit board replacement...
