you need a cruise control servo.

the system on a 99 crown is a full electronic servo so a vacuum concern is not an issue. my first question is does the horn work? the cruise system uses power from the horn circuit to activate the cruise so it the horn fuse is blown you get no cruise. the second question is if the air bag light is on, if it is the clockspring assy in the steering column is probly broken. in the horn does work and the air bag light is off you will need to find a service manual that will tell you how to test the switches, they are the next most common failure, the manual will also tell you how to check the resistence and voltages of the system, the only special tool you need is a multimeter.

Stick a test light in the wires to the cruise control de-activator switch on the brake master cylinder. It's on the front and has two wires to it. Both wires must be hot until you push the brake pedal hard. Likely the switch has failed, it's so common that Ford has a recall on them. In fact, you may wish to call the Ford dealer and give them your vin. If the recall applies to your vehicle you may even end up getting it fixed for free!

Either the brake cut off switch, under the hood, or the speed control servo assembly. Make sure first that the cable is still hooked to the throttle body

the gentle won't come on whilst the cruise administration is grew to become on, in simple terms whilst it is activated. If the gentle does not come on or the cruise does not guard speed (above 25mph for it to artwork) after pressing on, then the two coast or set/accel, you may run the cruise administration self attempt. With the foremost off, carry the cruise administration off button then turn the foremost on. interior of 10 seconds, launch off then press on, resume, coast, and then set/accel, in that order. The cruise administration lamp could desire to flash with each distinctive button pressed. After the final button, the lamp will the two flash as quickly as to coach the attempt has exceeded, two times if there's a topic with the brake swap, thrice if there's a controversy with the cruise deactivation swap under the hood (frequently on the grasp cyl), or 4 situations if there's a veh speed sensing subject. If the gentle never comes on, then you definately ought to learn ability to the cruise administration module, the switches and their wiring.

It could be something like a vacuum leak. Worse case is that the control unit went out. In that case it will have to be replaced. Take it to a dealer and get it fixed. good luck.

are you mecanical? you need to check all fuses, lingage adjustments to the actuator, vacumm hoses, acuator diapram,
it can be a long process if the vacumm hoses are leaking at the switch, under the dash and out to the engine.You need to pick up a cheap hand vacumm pump for testing.
