dang nabbit that Frnuiioc@43 ! FB oia$^%3643 .... oh, you meant insight... nevermind.

hahaha ya thats about what i said when i started working on it really anything would help :)

check the cruise control motor on the drivers side wheelwell by the fire wall. other than that idk. good luck

Isn't it on the passenger side. Atleast it is with the non SE models. I dont think anyones even works anymore except a few. Ray greens probably does...lol

should it make a click or anything when i press the main button? even when the car isn't running

My 84 GSL's cruise control box was behind the drivers seat, til I took it out and put it in the wrong bag. Anyone have an extra?

Might, I'll need to check. I have a habit of tossing them.

Check your vacuum connection/source to the unit under the hood, also I think there are switches at the clutch and brake pedals that if not adjusted properly may disable it.
On my truck, there is a vacuum hose to to the brake pedal switch.

Both my 85GSL and the 85SE work perfectly. I find them very useful even on short drives down the freeway. But I've never had a problem and I've never debugged one. I dread the day...

I hope this thread produces something for the archive, for that unhappy day when I have to fix one.
