09 f250 we just bought used and the cruise was intermittently working. Three weeks into ownership cruise stopped period. Found this video among several others and this one made it perfectly clear. Bought the switch that night and installed it the next day. First I ohmed it out and got zero ohms on the new one. Removed the old and tested it and got no reading at all. Definitely bad. Cruise works now, every time. My wife says "thanks!" So do I! I really appreciate you taking the time to make life easier for all of us! Merry Christmas
You have it bass ackwards Michael. Continuity without pressure means the switch is closed... so it's a normally closed switch. btw: Gazillions of earlier fords have a recall due to faulty brake pressure switches causing fires, including total loss of vehicles and homes when parked in attached garages or close to houses, because one terminal is always hot and a fluid leak in the switch creates a short to ground, but usually just loss of cruise control combined with a parasitic battery drain. Some switches are on a brake line junction instead of master cylinder.
Just came across this video, really going to be helpful. Quick question, do you remember if your cruise control light was illuminated on the dash and cruise not working? My light doesnt even come on. Thanks.
Will this cause ur truck to idle high or trouble using the shifter? I feel like my truck is trying to regen lately..I just had this code pop up and I had these symptoms

Thanks changed out the pressure switch on my 2010 F250 and Wallah cruise works again after 2-3 yrs!
Took longer to get the friggin connector off than replacing the switch.

Five minute fix but lots of research to get to that point! Joys of ownership my brother once said to me!
Ty bro I knew my pedal switch wasn't bad
Thank you for the video. Fixed my cruise in 5 minutes
Thanks for video I’ll be doing my this weekend. On some older Ford trucks the sensor was on top of the master cylinder. That would be a 1 minute job.
Thank you for the video...
I replaced both switch and still doesn't work, just ordered steering wheel control piece and I will see after I change.
Job well done mine just stopped 08 6.4 180k. How much was that?
Your a good deducer‼️‼️ Probably better than anyone at a Ford dealership❓❗️🤪🤪🤪
Thanks, mine quit couple weeks ago. On the to do list as had other more important things to do.
How did you get that plug off?
I wish you had shown the testing process ? Where did you have the red & black leads?
Now if you can just get the jake brake to work thanks for the video Mike
That's what's wrong with mine! You the man thanks bud
Good to know. I have an '06 F 250.

I don't know. My truck is deleted

Thanks Mike for the information verry usfull vid.
Dam you killed me with that duh moment 😄
As a garage owner you are not to devote any usable time for personal vehicle repairs. Didn't you get that memo😁
That memo went in the round file with the time card that said no more that 40 hours a week.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@MichaelJBerg yeah I just had a talk with an employee about no overtime pay. Wait, I work alone. Damn
Thank you sir!
