Ecosport Cruise Control Failure

Hi, my 2008 Ford Ecosport (gasoline engine) cruise control has suddenly stopped working. The car has 170863 km on the clock. The cruise control just doesn't engage. There's an error stored, but I don't have the equipment to read it. Any ideas?

The cruise control on a 2008 Ford Ecosport stopped working, and the issue was identified as a defective cable. Initially, there was uncertainty about the cause, with suggestions to check the fuse box or consider a defective pedal switch. Ultimately, the problem was resolved by repairing the cable.

Interesting. I had something similar happen in my Ecosport not too long ago, also cruise control related. Have you checked the fuse box? It might be a simple blown fuse for the cruise control system. That's always the first and easiest thing to check.

Thanks for the suggestion. Which fuse should I check and where is it located?

I wish I could tell you exactly which one and its location, but I am not sure. If the fuse isn't the problem, it could unfortunately be a defective cable or plug connection. When mine failed, the issue was more complex, and I had to take it to a workshop. I was also told the pedal switch could be defective.

Thanks for your help! It turned out to be a defective cable. Cost me 95€ to repair. At least it’s sorted now.
