Default 81 cruise controll electrical testing

Can anyone tell me how to test the electrical side of the cruise controll system. can not find a schematic for it. The cruise system was removed by po due to a bad speedo cable.

If yours is a "Cruise Master" like my 78, I have a scanned image of that portion of electrical schematic that I can send you. PM your email address to me and it's yours.

jerry, i have a matcher for your car (78 pace) that someone along the way had removed the entire cruise system (along with other stuff) right down to the turn signal lever with the cruise on button in it, so i am starting from scratch. it would be greatly appreciated if i could get a copy of the schematic you have and would love to see some pictures of the different components installed under the hood. i have sent along a PM also.

many thanks for taking the time to help me out.
