Diagnosing cruise control problems??
Ok, so here's where I'm at. When I bought my '86 the cruise control diaphragm was busted and missing, also the stalk for the turn signal switch broken. So, I found the needed parts in my local junkyard. I basically pulled the ENTIRE cruise system from another '86 incase I needed extra parts. So, I've installed everything, and.... Nothing... The d@mn thing doesn't work!!!

Re: Diagnosing cruise control problems??
I gave up fixing my 83 cruise. I added an aftermarket unit from Rostra. Worth every dime. My 83 factory manual has info. I don't think I have the pages scanned into PDF files. I'll check.

Re: Diagnosing cruise control problems??
I have checked the brake switch and its good... Wonder how likely it is that my switch is bad?... Or maybe my VSS
