Thanks for your reply. When you say steering wheel controls, do you mean something inside the steering wheel itself? Is that something that's easy to check, or will I have to start dismantling everything? Also, which fuses should I check, and where would I find them? I want to be sure I'm checking the right ones before I accidentally make things worse!

In the case of my Astra, the issue stemmed from a faulty connection within the steering wheel control module. Diagnosis of this issue necessitated specialized equipment and expertise. Given the potential complexity and the error code stored, I would recommend consulting a qualified technician for precise diagnosis and repair. It can save time and potential further complications.

Thanks again! I took it to a local mechanic today. It turned out to be a defective cable or plug connection of the component, just like I suspected! They replaced the defective cable and the total cost was 95€. Cruise control is working again. Your advice to see a professional was spot on!

Greetings. I experienced a comparable issue with the cruise control system in my 2012 Opel Astra. While the specific root cause may differ between vehicle models, the initial symptoms appear consistent. Have you considered a potential malfunction within the steering wheel controls themselves, or perhaps a defective pedal switch? These components are integral to the cruise control's operational circuit. I would also check all relevant fuses.
