I recently had the cruise control go out on my 1994 944 and 945, so I thought I would share how I fixed each for next to nothing.

Using my mighty vac I traced the problem on my 944 to a pinhole leak on the cruise control bellows under the hood. I cleaned the rubber bellows and applied a small inner tube patch.

On my 945 I traced the problem to a leak at the brake switch near the brake pedal. I was able to take the switch apart and replace the "O" ring with an extra from a pack of o rings left over from some AC work.

It has been several months and both are still working like new.
