I'm so Thankful I found this guy! Being a female and trying to do this alone, I needed good instructions. Thank you!!
Thanks Sha for the kind words. Thanks for looking and for finding my videos. Make sure to subscribe
Ron W. I love the simple straight forward instruction. I have a 2014 Ram 3500 6.7. Cruise control wont turn on unless i pull and reinstall the fuse from the fuse block. It works perfectly until the next time i try to turn it on, then i have to repeat the process.
The best part he never talked for 15 minutes before he did it
Thanks I watch all of your videos and they are extremely helpful . Doing both sides of mine this weekend when the parts come in .
Thanks for being a loyal subscriber!
The OD lights are on because the air bag is out, he is most likely diagnosing the problem and not playing parts darts. Good video man.
Man.....you made me have to watch my own video.....that was sooo long ago. It hurt my eyes to watch. Glad that my quality has come along ways since then and that attempt at trying to grow a beard was another thing lol. Thanks for watching and for the comment!
MotorCity Mechanic: That's pretty funny man, I seen in a post on this Video saying something about, Oh he says undo the battery for 15 mins but you can see the lights on the dash are on. Having a bit of experience myself, I just wanted to remind people that you are a professional and you know what you are doing.
Yeah Its one of those....do as I say and not as I do things lol. I have learned from videos such as that and others to make sure to pay attention to the details like that so that people dont have anything to say lol. Airbags are safe as long as you dont do something stupid. But its always best to film the exact procedure....not need in confusing people.
MotorCity Mechanic: I couldn't have said it better lol. Well you convinced me to like and subscribe.
Thanks Rus! Check out my newer videos....I promise they have gotten better!
Thanks for the video. I love how everything is short to the point.
Your welcome Arman. I try to stick to just what is needed and added as much info as I can at the same time. Thanks for watching and make sure to subscribe!
I also watched the video on how to replace the MFS, I ordered mine today and will be replacing it as soon as it comes in!
You will see that it takes no time at all in the end
I hope so! I hope my part will be in soon. I actually ordered from one of the links listed on your video. It saved me a good bit of money. I shopped around but I couldn't find anyone cheaper than the 1aauto.com.
Thanks for that comment
THANK YOU VERY MUCH for a well made yet simple video, which makes this job so easy.
This is exactly what I needed to know for my 2008 Ram. Thanks for posting.
Cool. Glad it helped. I appreciate you finding it. Make sure to subscribe
I just got my 96 dodge ram is a blessing from God himself and my pride and joy
Thanks for watching and make sure to subscribe!
great video !! helped me out alot with the cruise on my 2005 Dodge.thank for the time you put in on doing the video
Thats cool Matt! Glad to see that the videos help. Appreciate the time you took to comment and to watch. Make sure to subscribe and check out my other videos as well.
Thank You! Outstanding Class
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
I have a 2008 1500 ST V6. I’ve read in forums that these do not come with pre wired, but then some do. I feel like this should be a simple “plug and play”. Or do i have to go to a dealership for them to program it?
Great video, thanks for your help!
I am not 100% sure on that. I havent tried it myself. On some vehicles its as simple as that while others not. Also when we add some features we do need to go online and change the sales codes and re-download them to the vehicle in order for things to work.
Thank you !!
The cruise light comes on, on My 2005 Quad cab 1500 4.7L but doesn’t do anything else at all. You think this is it? Someone else said vacuum? I don’t have the money to keep buying all these parts and i know its a process of elimination. You think this would do it or where u would start with it?
I have a 08 Ram 1500 and my cruise control wont turn on. Any suggestion. Thx
hey man thanks of the video but I'm missing something why did you not disconnect the battery, and why did the bag go off
Are the cruise control switches usually what goes bad or wiring from the steering whee into the ecm? I’m having p0591 and p0585 would replacing the CC switches likely fix my issue or should I look in the engine bay for frayed wires?
I have a 2006 Dodge Dakota Laramie 4.7L 4X4...Cruise was working but now is inoperable. When attempting to set the Cruise Control: Pressing Cruise Control "ON", the Cruise Control indicator lights in the instrument cluster but turns off immediately. Any suggestions please.
I have 2003 2500 ram. My cruse come on when I push the on button, but when I push on the set button it goes off or the cruse dose not come on. Is it my switch or the vac hose buy the carb. thanks for video .
Rick
My backlighting on my cruse controls on my 2009 dodge cummings are not working but the cruse controls are working just fine. Are there bulbs on each side that need to be replaced?
So, how did you determine that the switch was what needed to be replaced?. Mine is acting up now. Seems to have issues engaging when it is cold outside. In addition, I don't seem to be able to find a PN for the 2004 2500. Other than from Dodge of course. Thanks in advance.
I believe it was related to a code that was set. Its been awhile since performing that repair so my memory is a but fuzzy. you need to scan all the modules to check for a related codes.....a simple code reader will not do it. As far as the part number.....I recommend contacting the local Dodge dealer and get the number from them. Then go online and google it and see what options come up as far as price and possible alternatives. The dealer/OEM may be the only option as far as to where to get it in the end. Thanks for the question and make sure to subscribe
My 2007 RAM just started having issues with the Cruise Control yesterday.It will work for several miles and then stop working.I push the Cruise button again and it will work again and sometimes for just a mile or so and sometimes for 5 or more miles.Any suggestions?
I just ordered a new switch for a Dodge Grand Caravan 2005 3.3L V6. I believe the replacement of the cruise control switch is close to the same. Any suggestion since it is a dodge grand caravan 2005 model?
Service info shows to pretty much be the same. Remove airbag and then the fasteners for the switch itself. Thanks for asking and for the question. Make sure to subscribe
Can't you do this without disconnecting the wires on the airbag?
I have a 2007 dodge ram 1500 4.7L I had the cruise control on then the check engine light came on and I lost cruise control. Did a computer check and found I needed a TPS sensor. So I replaced TPS sensor and still no cruise control. Is there a fuse for cruise control? If so where do I find it? Or what should I look for next?
The thing about cruise control issues is the monitoring the data related to that system. You need a higher end scanner to get that info. It will tell you what the possible issues might be as far as inputs and on some modules it will show what is preventing it to work....such as speed, brake pedal, etc. Otherwise its a guess.
MotorCity Mechanic 2005 Dodge Durango hemi. I have the codes P0585 and P0951 which relates to the cruise control switches. Some times the cruise works and other times it won’t turn on at all. Do you think faulty switch or faulty clock spring. Horn still works, air bag light is not on and everything else is ok
my cruise comes on but when i try to set the speed, it goes off. amd will not come back on until the truck is shut off and restarted . then does the same thing no cruise
. 2006 1500 4x4 4.7
The 4.7 has a cable operated throttle which means a vacuum operated cruise control servo. This means that there can be numerous issues. First step is to check for codes and then go from there. If no codes then monitoring the cruise control related items with a scanner will be needed to see what item might be causing the issue. In the mean time the simplest thing you can do is check the vacuum line going to the cruise control servo that should be mounted below the battery which means battery corrosion can damage the vacuum line. Certainly something to check into. Thanks for the question and for watching. Make sure to subscribe
I believe my switch went out but not sure. I have a 2006 Dodge Ram. Around 40 mph I can turn it on, but anything below that, it won't work. Could it be the switch and where can I buy the switch at and how much?
Funny odm lights are on dash wow and he disconnect the battery 15mins ago.
Its one of those....do as I say....not as I do haha. I feel the need to tell the proper steps per the manual but to be honest....over time I have found some steps not needed. When ever I do that I catch the dash lights as you mentioned when editing and always curious if others notice. Guess some viewers pay attention to the smallest details. I appreciate that and thanks for watching. Check out my other videos and subscribe!
What is the symptom on bad fuel pump relay on 2008 Ram 1500!!
Typically you would get a no start or it would start stalling out and then shut off.
@@MotorCityMechanic well I got a 2008 Ram 1500 the truck crank and about 10 seconds the truck turn on but is like weak I replace alternator and try a New throttle body and is still doing the same thing do you know or hear something about??thanks for reply !!
@@MotorCityMechanic and when I put the old alternator the truck turn on with no problem I whent to the auto parts and when I was back the truck start stalling again!!
I enjoyed this video. My only question is if it would work on a 2006 with a 3.7L Magnum v6? I've heard different stories on if it is simply plug in the cruise modules or if extra steps are required and I was hoping to see if you would know
Are you wanting to add cruise control to one that didnt come with cruise or replacing a bad switch?
It came with the black plastic pieces so yeah i am wanting to add cruise
I have an 04 24v. the cruise cuts out when I have to go up a hill, and won't work again until I restart the truck. any ideas what the issue might be?
Vacuum leak or bad vacuum check valve. I would check all the vacuum lines going from the engine to the cruise control servo to the firewall. Make sure to damaged lines and in line you will find 1 or 2 vacuum check valves. One of those might be bad.
hi, I have loose cruise control switch on my 2012 dodge ram 3500.. is it the same steps to do as this video/
thanks
+Mustafa Shhadih Its different on there model that your speaking off. For one.....the airbag snaps on and has 3 metal catches that have to be released inorder to get the airbag off. Otherwise the video pretty much will not help. I don't currently have a video on this year model.
Trying to fix my mother's 06 ram. she said she tried to set cruise and it wouldn't stop accelerating. I tried to drive it and it acted like it didn't forget the last set speed. (70 ish) Ran it up the road and then the cruise shut down and will not come back on. SWITCHES???????? Please help and thanks if you can!!!!!
Its a possibility. I havent seen that before personally. The way to test would be to monitor the cruise control switches to see if it shows one being depressed when it shouldnt. That requires a scanner that can access all the modules in the truck and then observe the data from the switches. Otherwise it would be a guess
Thanks for getting back to me. Is there a way I can check power? It turned off and will not come back on. Could be the clock spring? She's retired and I try to work on her stuff to save her money.
The systems dont you the typical powers like 12 volts that we are use to....instead they vary the voltage/resistance for different switch positions. It requires having a scanner to monitor the switch states to see which is working and which is not.
Do you have this type of video for a 2010 Ram 1500 Cruise Control removal? If so, please send me a link. Thanks again
Maybe that truck has the airbag held in with 10mm bolts, but not all trucks use 10mm bolts.
My 03 has smaller bolts, not certain what size exactly, but they do take a torx bit.

Thanks for that added info. Much appreciate and make sure to subscribe.
@@MotorCityMechanic update: The torx screws in the back of the steering wheel take a t15 torx bit. Turns out, those are for the cruise control switches. Once you remove the switches, you'll have access to a pair of t30 torx screws which hold the airbag to the wheel.

My new switch didnt come with any cable connectors, not sure what to do.
The switch doesnt come with connectors. The connector/wiring is on the steering wheel. It plugs into the switch.
I changed my switches on my 2008 Dodge Ram 1500 and the Cruise control is still not working, any ideas?
At this point its going to take some diag to see what the issue is. That pretty much means checking for codes and monitoring the data to see if the switch state is changing and if there is something else that can be preventing it from working properly. Otherwise nothing common that I can point you towards. Thanks for asking and make sure to subscribe.
its tied into your brake light switch. That is a common failure part due to its constant use but inexpensive to replace.
Thanks, my cruise will work for about 1 second and turn off everytime. 2005 dodge 3500
I would make sure to check the vacuum lines going to the cruise servo. Otherwise you need to look for codes and monitor the data to see what is causing it to turn it off using a higher end scanner.
@@MotorCityMechanic its dont and never had a code go off. Only code iv ever had happen was for the map sensor and iv replaced it. But ill check that line your talking about today
@@MotorCityMechanic do you think you can make a video showing me where that vacuum line is because it seems to be really hard to find. I have a 2005 dodge 3500 with the 5.9 Cummins
I will keep it in mind. Typically is runs along the bottom of the rubber seal under the wiper cowl.
2004 ram 3500, cruise control will turn on n lifs own after about 30sec.
What would cause the cruise to disengage randomly? If i hit resume it wont resume unless i touch the throttle a bit. Is that a switch issue?
its tied into your brake light switch. That is a common failure part due to its constant use but inexpensive to replace.
@brich2929 thanks man! I will get it changed and see what happens!
Hey thanks for the vid I appreciate the time you took to produce it. I have a 2005 Ram Hemi auto ST model without cruise control And am wondering if my truck would be pre wired for cruise? If so could I just add the cruise switch and have it work properly?
+dough3208 Thanks for the kind words. I cant remember exactly but it depends on the engine size. The hemi being electronic throttle body would mean the install should be fairly simple. I would have to get the last 8 digits of your VIN to have my parts department pull up the kit avail and maybe even see if the install instructions are avail to see if anything odd.
+MotorCity Mechanic I have the 5.7 hemi and it has the electronic throttle. The vin is 5J535052 ,I was doing some reading and get conflicting stories some say my truck would be pre wired some say its not . I planned to go get the cruise switch to the junkyard and hopefully have them plug and play but if i need more parts then i will likely not bother. thanks for the reply.
+dough3208 I checked with my parts department and there is no listing for an add on kit. The newer trucks have to have the build configuration changed and downloaded to the vehicle when items are added or removed inorder for them to work. Yours is old enough that you most likely wont. I have no additional info on adding the cruise at this time. I would start with removing the air bag on the drivers side to see if the wiring is there for both the cruise control switches first.
+MotorCity Mechanic Hi I appreciate you looking into it for me, I will start by checking for the wiring and if its there then ill see if i can get the cruise switch and install it and go from there. ill let you know if it works out. Thanks for the help.
+dough3208 cool. I will keep an eye out for your update
would it be similar for a 07 dodge charger 2.7?
The process will be completely sufferer and require removing more components. Here is a video that will help you with the repair.....it requires removal of the same items as in the video. ruclips.net/video/VwW0jUN_6G4/видео.html
Hello Dave, I sent you an email asking for some help. I hope you received it, if so please respond at your earliest convince. If not, please let me know and I’ll resend it. Thanks
In my 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 Hemi the cruise control stopped working. When I turn on the truck and press the cc button it lights up as soon as I take off/accel it turns off and doesn't engage at all nor while driving above 30mph... Checked the vacuum hoses look fine and all the plastic hoses look fine as well what else can't it be please help!!!!!!!
That_Guy89 x The truck has a hemi so there is nothing under the hood related to cruise control. Reason why is there is no throttle cable because its drive by wire....electronic throttle body. Everything is controlled by the engine controller and other modules as well. The only way to tell is to observe the sensor and switch data with a scanner capable of viewing all these items. It should show a reason why its being denied and turning off. Make sure to subscribe and spread the word
So a speed sensor and brake pedal switch wouldn't be a wouldn't be a culprit to the problem or maybe E-brake.....just wondering???? My truck doesn't show any codes and I tried switching the key on and off 3 times and another try with 5 tries no codes nothing it was working fine before!!! Thanks for commenting back really appreciate and already subscribed and definitely will spread the word thanks!!!!!
speed sensor would set a code. the scanner will show alot of cruise control related items and even state why the last cruise control effect was stopped. Thats why the correct scanner is needed....not just to check codes but to see why the cruise control was disabled.
What kind of scanner would that be?? Should I take it to a dealer so they can check that for me!!!
the scanner that I know for sure will check it is the factory scanner. I cant speak of other scanners because Im not familiar with them. I use the factory DRB3 everyday so its what I know. Best bet would be visiting the dealer, otherwise you would be just throwing parts at it blindly
