When mine quit it was the sensor on the brake master cylinder. I guess they get brake fluid in them and they quit working. Real easy to change. Good luck.

I have a 98 F150 and the cruise control does not work. Did the suggestion to check the sensor on brake cylinder work???

Sounds like you guys need to take your trucks into the dealer to have the recall done. Unless you would like to have a scorching pile of metal in your front yard.

If the recall has already been done, the pressure switch can still fail and cause the cruise to go out. At least the truck won't burn up if the fuse in the harness blows like it's supposed to....
