I have a '99 C2 Cab. My cruise control has not worked since I bought my car. I dug under the dash today to see if the brake switch was working properly. It seems to be fine, but while under the dash, I found a wiring harness that wasn't connected to anything. Here are a few pictures (not very good due to the fact that I have to stand on my head to get under the dash). Any help what this is? Thanks.

I can't see any of the wire colors to verify but it sure looks like the connector that plugs into the cruise control controller box.

Thanks, Loren. After posting this, I found a post by Richard Hamilton with a picture of the cruise control connector. I just went out and crawled back under the dash and felt under until I found the pins for the connector. Plugged it back in and now the cruise light comes on. I will test it out for functionallity tomorrow. Thanks!!

Cruise works fine now. I had this car at the dealer for some other things last summer and asked them to take a look at why the cruise wasn't working. They said they looked and didn't see anything, but it was probably related to a bad ignition and they wouldn't run any furter tests unless they replaced the ignition. Of course they would only install the new style ignition to the tune of $500. I said no thanks and replaced the ignition myself with the old style $10 ignition and it made no change. Apparently they didn't even look at the cruise or surely they would have seen this wiring harness just hanging there! Sorry to vent, but once again this website has saved the day and a bunch of money!!
