Cruise Ctrl. issue

[I1T2BLV]

I am looking for some pics or exact location of the cruise control linkage guys. Cruise has not wroked in over a year and the driving distances I am doing would be alot easier to take w/ it engaged. Please help.

Did it detach from the throttle lever? How are the steering wheel swicthes? Check the connector down by the cruise chamber. The speed sensor at the transmission may be defective or not making a good connection. The fuse?

Here are some thoughts for you.
If you Cruise is vacuum operated check the vacuum connections for leaks or blockage. If it is electrically operated check all connections, including the ones on the clutch, brake, including the emergency brake, and multi-function switch. The switches mentioned turn off the cruise control if any of the mentioned items are used, e.g. the brakes.
Lastly the clockspring needs to be considered. There are three functions run through the clockspring, that is the horn, the cruise, and the air bag. If more than one of these things is not functioning then it is a good bet that the clockspring is at fault, or there is a connection problem. Connection problems can be a corroded connection, a loose connection, and/or a broken or shorted wire in the harness. The clockspring is behind the air bag and the air bag MUST be disarmed before it can be removed safely.

A 93 ATX has all-electronic cruise.

The linkage goes from the module (mounted between the driver's side strut tower and the master cyclinder) to the throttle.

Check the switch on the bottom of the master cylinder. Disconnect it and temporarily install a paper clip as a temporary bypass. See if the cruise now works. If so, replace the switch.
