Cruise control
I have a 97 STX 4.0 4x4 auto
I have replaced the buttons, the clock spring, had the recall serviced, and checked the fuse and tested the servo. All to no avail anyone else have a clue as to what might be causing my problem? or something else to check.

What exactly is the problem? Is it not engaging? Is crude control just shutting off?
Did the cable break?

I'm sorry that would be helpful wouldn't it. It won't engage won't turn on at all.

Re: Cruise control
First reaction here (after checking the fuse like you did) is to locate and check the brake switch as it may not be telling the servo that the brake is not applied.

Re: Cruise control
This may sound stupid but is there a way to test without buying a new one?

Re: Cruise control
DVM using the ohm function to test continuity.
There is no such thing as a dumb question, if it was dumb it would not have been asked.

You can unplug the switch and jump the wires. I added it to my 2000 and just jumped the wires.

Re: Cruise control
From Ford Service Manual:
Do not start engine during this test. Transmission in Park or Neutral with parking brake applied.
Put the key in the ignition and hold the OFF button on the speed control then turn the key to the on position and then release the OFF button. This puts the speed control in diagnostic mode.
Within 5 seconds of releasing the OFF button, start pressing the buttons in the sequence shown below:
ON
RESUME
COAST
SET/ACCEL
(For each button pressed, the speed control light should flash ONCE, indicating that the pressed button is working.)
If, after pressing the last button (SET/ACCEL), the speed control light flashes:
2 flashes - defective brake pedal position sensor and/or a bad clutch pedal position sensor or the circuit is defective.
3 flashes - Brake deactivation switch is open or circuit is defective.
4 flashes - Vehicle speed signal is out of range or circuit is defective.
Immediately after the last flash code is complete, the speed control servo will pull the throttle open and then release it. This should be watched to check that the throttle and cable are not binding or inoperative for any other reason.
Although it is rare, it is also possible that this code could flash early during the diagnostic procedure.
5 flashes – Speed Control Actuator defective.
Turn ignition switch to the off position after test.
