Why is the cruise control not working on my Ford Explorer?
The most common reasons a Ford Explorer cruise control isn’t working are failed control module, sensor or switch issues, or throttle actuation problems.
Where is cruise control on dashboard?
Once you’ve reached your desired speed, turn on the cruise control system. In most vehicles, these buttons are on or behind the steering wheel. A light will appear on your dashboard once it has turned on.
Where is the switch for cruise control?
Locate your car’s cruise control switches.

How do I activate cruise control?
To use cruise control, you can typically press buttons on your steering wheel to activate the system, set your speed, adjust your speed up or down within the system, and deactivate the system. Using cruise control lets you set a speed for your car to maintain even if you take your foot off the gas.
How do I know if my car has cruise control?
The most obvious way to see if your car has adaptive cruise control is to look on the steering wheel (or sometimes on a stalk behind the wheel). Buttons and switches marked ‘Cruise’, ‘Cancel’, ‘Res +’ and ‘Set –’ are tell-tale signs of a cruise control system, along with a digital display on the instrument panel.
Typically, the cruise control buttons can be found on the right-hand side of the steering wheel. Depending on the car, the location of the controls can vary, but the functionality of the cruise control will usually be similar across the board. Here are the basic buttons you can use to operate cruise control.
How do I know if I have active cruise control?
When the system is turned on, you’ll see a white Adaptive Cruise Control icon in your cluster display or on your Head-Up Display, if your vehicle has that feature. The icon may look like a speedometer with a vehicle on top of it or an arc with a small triangle pointing through it.
