    Hy guys got a quick question, for some reason my fogs and my cruise control never work, when i first got the truck the cruise control worked but only sometimes, now i cant get it to work at all, the light wont even come on in the dash for it. same with my fogs. has anyone had this issue? i cant figure it out, Ive check fuses and relays from what i can see would be correlated to both systems. Im lost as to what it could be.

    Thanks all for your help!

    Have the Fog Lights ever worked?
    The head lights have to be ON and in the Lo position.

    Have you Physically checked the fuses?
    Or have you just read the manual looking for a common fuse or relay?

    I checked all the fuzes and the relays I could see that might have to do with it. And no dogs never worked. No matter the position

    You really need to check power to the fuses and relays.
    I’d personally start at the Fuse for lights themself. Then unplug the lights and test there.

    Most likely the cruise control is your clock spring. Here is a great YouTube video on the fix. I just did it on mine a couple weeks ago.

    I bought the Napa part for $200, that way if it wasn't the issue I could return it, or return it if it goes bad again. Super easy fix, I don't have an idea about the fog lights though.

    Changed out the clock spring and I have CC again. I do have a airbag light that idk why I have. But oh well.

    Just gotta figure out the dogs now. I may just pull the stock dogs and put in led stuff
