Cruise Control Doesn't work

[KYSHO]

My Cruise Control does not work. Everything else works fine. I have checked the fuses and they are okay. I have also checked to make sure it is connected to the throttle. I don't know where else to go from there. It has not worked since I got the SHO, a 1992. I did search but all the problems were related to non-working cruise control along with other devices such as horn or blinkers. I am only having a problem with the cruise.

Any suggestions?

I had a problem with my Cruise Control not working. I ended up being an easy fix. The clutch pedal was tripping the switch that disengages the CC and by simply pushing the clutch pedal up with my shoe before activating the CC I fixed the problem.

Wish all things have such an easy fix.

Could be your VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor) - if this goes, the cruise system doesn't know how fast it's going, and the CC can't operate. Mine was bad in the 93, no cruise.

The earlier SHOs had a problem with the cruise control cable end unclipping from the throttle shaft on the throttle body. I know this is an obvious thing to see, but for you or others that loose cruise function, it is the first thing to check.

i agree with scott, mine has a tendancy to come unclipped - the first time it happened i was on a 500 mile road trip to utah - didnt find out until i got there - man was my ankle killikng me!
