Cruise control on 98 Grand Voyager

[David and Sara Hughes]

Does anyone have a clue where to look for a fuse or breaker that controls
the cruise control on a 98 Grand Voyager? I am thinking that it must be
something like that because the darn thing quit working overnight (worked
one day, next day it did not).
The indicator lamp on the dash will not light up either. I looked in the
owners manual and did not find any fuse to protect this circuit.
Any and all help will be appreciated, and if you would be so kind, please
e-mail me with your thoughts on this because I do not get much time to keep
up with all the postings.
Thanks,

Just a thought and I may be off base here, but consider the clockspring.
It is the wiring harness that connects and carries the signals from
the dash up the steering column and failure can apparently affect
anything electrical in the steering column. In my '99 Grand Caravan it
was intermittent Air Bag warning light. I believe your '98 is subject
to a recall on the clockspring; unfortunately, my '99 wasn't covered by
the recall. (yet!)

Actually, only those items contained within the steering wheel. Cruise,

I am replying to the group as a matter of newsgroup etiquette. That way we
all get to learn if we are interested.

Interesting question. According to the wiring diagram in my Hayne's manual
(no absolute authority) there is no one fuse because so many components are
involved: the engine control computer, the brake switch, the instrument
panel, the transmission. You would need to hunt down the culprit. Are any
other electrical circuits out?
