i have a 1996 diesel ram truck. up to now the cruise control has worked fine. now it is not working. i am not sure where to look first and how to fix it anything -- comments and suggestion would be extremely helpful. thanks in advance. there were lots of problems with the vacuum lines to the servo. its under the battery and it seems like i recall battery acid eating through the lines always check the easy stuff first fuses and vacuum connections. therere vacuum lines at the cowl area that tend to get pulled apart when replacing the fuel filter as well its worth checking back there too. .
