FJCruiser Cruise Control Failure

I have a 2022 Toyota FJCruiser with a gasoline engine, and my cruise control suddenly stopped working at 49915 km. The cruise control does not engage, and there is an error stored in the memory. I've checked for obvious things like a blown fuse related to the cruise control system, but that seems fine. Could a defective speed sensor cause such problem?

I had a similar issue with my FJCruiser. Did you check your brake lights? Sometimes a faulty brake light switch can disable the cruise control. Is the 'Cruise' indicator lighting up on the dashboard at all?

Interesting point about the brake lights. I'll check them. But if it was just a brake light, wouldn't I expect other symptoms? I mean, is there any other sensor that could also be the culprit?

Yeah, when mine went, I was surprised too, just cruise control dead. I'd get it checked at a workshop. Turned out to be a defective plug connection of the cruise control component, which caused the error. If you don't have the tools to perform advanced diagnosis, getting it checked professionally seems wise.

Thanks for the tip! I got it checked out as you suggested. Turns out you were right: it was indeed a defective cable connection. The repair cost was 95€. Everything is working fine now.
