Epica Cruise Control Failure

Alright, car gurus, I'm pulling my hair out here! My 2010 Chevrolet Epica with a gasoline engine has developed a rather annoying problem. The cruise control has completely stopped working. No warning lights, nothing! I've checked the obvious – fuses seem fine. I even wiggled some wires near the cruise control module, hoping for a miracle, but nada. Anyone else experienced this? I even have an error code stored in the memory! This is driving me nuts!

Summary of the thread

A 2010 Chevrolet Epica experienced a cruise control failure with no warning lights. Initial checks of fuses and wires yielded no results. A suggestion was made to inspect the brake lights and consider a faulty brake light switch or a bad connection, such as the clock spring. Ultimately, a workshop scan revealed a defective cable connection, which was repaired, resolving the issue.

I had a similar cruise control issue on my Epica. First thing, did you check your brake lights? A faulty brake light switch can disable the cruise control. Also, does the cruise control dashboard light even come on when you try to engage it?

Interesting about the brake lights! I'll double-check those. The dashboard light doesn't come on at all when I try to use the cruise control. Does that point to a specific culprit, in your experience?

Yep, no light at all points to something upstream, like a bad connection or the clock spring. Honestly, without proper diagnostics, you're just guessing. I'd suggest getting it scanned at a workshop. Could be a defective cable or plug connection. They should be able to pinpoint it quickly.

Thanks a bunch for the advice! Turns out you were right; it was indeed a defective cable connection. I took it to a workshop, they scanned it and found the issue in no time. Repair cost me 95€, and now my cruise control is working perfectly again!
