My cruise control controls no longer work, checked all fuses under steering column and in power distribution box. Any ideas other then start checking every wire possible?

the most common problem is the unit itself. it is highly unlighly that any of the switches or wiring has failed. if you have a second contique or have another ceger close by or a junk yard try switching units.

also the ford service manual has a pinpoint test procedture for the cruise control

Is the hook that pulls the throttle still in one piece? They crack and pop off. Mine has been glued together about 5 years now.

should tell you in your owners manual if you have it. to answer the first question above check you connections to the cruise control and the fuses if not you may have to replace the switch.
