    My 2006 tacoma cruise control sometimes will work and sometimes will not. Acts like a loose wire. Any suggestions? Thanks

    Welcome to the forum. :wave:

    My guess would be a faulty spiral cable in the steering column. Toyota has issued a recall for those things and the cruise control 'controls' use this cable.

    Thank you for that info. Will call dealer. I just returned from a 5,000 trip and sometimes it worked and sometimes it did not.

    Clazzio seat covers,
    Check your brake lights for a short ... because, as we all know ... the brake lights disengage the cruise control ... just a thought.
