Coming home from a C&C this morning my cruise control up and quit. The fuse is good and every thing on the engine end is connected. Open for suggestions on where to look next to trouble shoot. Thanks in advance.

Theres a switch on the brake & clutch if you have a stick that can keep the cruise disengaged if they hang up or go out of adjustment.

I converted to digital cruise so I can't help you too much.

I agree, my switch on the brake peddle was loose and not engaging. A zip tie and adjustment and all is well.
Check for a vacuum leak as well but probably one of the switches.

The cruise control selector/on/off switch is also a common source of problems with the stock Fiero cruise control.

Thanks guys. I'll check the pedal switch(s) and the stalk in the next couple of days. I'm thinking the pedal area makes the most sense as I do normally drive shoeless as my size 13 feet take up a lot of space. With the cold weather this morning I did have a pair of my cold weather clown shoes on. Hope it is a simple fix and I will post the results of either success or failure after I check.

Just found the reason for mine not working today, at the stalk where the wires exit.
