Have you had the cruise control recall done? There's an inline fuse in the harness going to the disconnect switch you changed if you have, you need a new harness piece if that fuse is blown.

If it had the fuse harness, the recall was done. The reason they did it that way is when the bad switch starts leaking, it was shorting out and causing fires. Instead of replacing the switch, Ford simply put a harness extension on with an inline fuse. I guess that was cheaper.
