Answer
Hi Aaron,
Check fuses 1 (10 amp) to be sure it isn't blown as that is the power souuce for the cruise control which is shown in my '04 manual. Look closely at the fuse to be sure it doesn't have a crack in its wire. It that appears to be ok then try to get a fault code readout, for free. at an Autozone parts store. Let me know of any such 4-digit numbers that come up which may help us identify the cause.
There is a 7-page section in the manual which I can xerox copy and mail to you if we can't identify a simple fix. Then you can go through it with those pages. But check the fuse and try for fault codes first.

PS: Sorry for the delay but your question just appeared on the 'pool' where the other expert had referred it. I would appreaciate your rating my answer, and where you see the question about a nomination for 'volunteer of the month' consider giving a 'yes' answer. Thanks
