Cruise Control Intermittent Problem S70 1998

Help please,

Cruise Control acting up:

- Highway speed
- When activating Cruise, it works only approx. 1 time out of 10 times that I tried
- No consistent pattern of when it works and when it does not work.
- When it works, occasionally when car hits a small bump, it turns off by itself.

WHERE DO I START?
- Is there a Cruise relay that I should check?
- Is this likely from Cruise Computer?
- Or is this likely from some mecahnical (? cable) that I can check?

Thanks

The switch above the accel or brake pedal is loose. Just tighten it up and you should be golden.

But your back will hurt for a day or two! What a terrible place to put things.

I had a similar problem on my 96 850 Na glt. Check the cruise hook up at the accel. pedal and look at the vacumn lines below the battery box(if you have a
access to a lift it would help getting to vac lines) Mine was at the accel pedal and once I fixed the cable hookup it hasn't missed a beat.
