I think they changed over to electronic cruise control at some point probably in 1994 as that's what mine has 1996. I think the vacuum type is easier to diagnose and fix since it's often the vacuum solenoid that's bad on them.

For the electric type, I'd start with a multimeter and a wiring diagram after checking fuses and linkages.

Cruise control can be tricky to repair, if you make repairs and get it wrong it can be dangerous(sudden acceleration) so keep that in mind when you start working on it. Not trying to put you off from DIY though.
