A wild Newfoundlander! My only guess would be fuses but you've already checked those. But you asked in the right place I'm sure someone on here has a solution for your issue.

is it possible that no one on this site with cruise replaced there stock stereo ? thought someone would have known something .

I have replaced my stock stero a few times with no problems. The only problem i have with my cruise is that i have to pull my clutch pedal up to engage the switch to say the pedal is all the way up. Once i do that the cruise works as it should.

what type of wiring harness did you use to hook up your stereo ?

i had the exact issue with no cruise control after installing aftermarket radio. I found the wiring diagram and saw that the green/white wire controls the auto volume adjust for the old radio which the new radio does not have. I pulled out the new radio and left the green/white wire disconnected and cruise control now works fine. hope this helps

If that clipping the grn/wht. deal works,then this has to be the best Tech forum in the world. That kid might have looked for months before finding the prob. And had a sore rht. leg to go with it.
