Today I was driving home and my cruise control wasn't working. I would click the button, the light would come on, but it wouldn't "set." So, pissed off, I banged it a little and moved the stick in circles but that didn't fix it. So I turned it off, then back on, and when I turned it back on it just flashes on and off, not working at all.
 What is it? The same thing happened with my A/C light, which I posted about approximately a week ago. Plus I have that ticking in my engine that won't shut up. Then my sub only works half the time for some reason... Everything goes wrong right when I want to sell the car!

The problem is, your cruise control got crosswired with your flux capitor. Now it's blinking when you turn it on to tell you that you haven't reached 88 mph yet, or set a destination time. I suspect that the AC light is the same reason- and your flux capitor is stealing power from the sub. DUH!
 sorry man, dunno

or you can try a easy thing and move your steering wheel around in different positions, it might actually work.... It did for my off-roading jeep (don't ask).

Your sensor's probably bad. Same thing happened to me. I would turn it on and then it would just flash at me.
Was going to get if fixed untill I found out that it was going to cost 1100 dollars for a new sensor. |

according to the manual, a blinking cruise control light indicates a malfunction in the vehicle speed sensor or the cruise control servo unit, it also should set a diagnostic code, get your codes read and also check wiring and fuses for those units.

when a light comes on or flashes it means there was a code set. there is NO cruise control sensor. that system works off of your tps, map, BOO switch, CPP switch, and some airbag sensors. |
