Default Cruise Control Issue

The cruise control on the 98 cuts out after hitting a bump. Once thje car warms up it seems to do ok???? Also, it seems to act up in the rain, although I usually don't run with it in the rain but maybe it will point someone in the right direction.

The first thing you need to do is pull the codes from your car. Please post the codes and we (on the forum) will be able to get you closer to a fix.

Check how close the switch is to the brake pedal. If it is not close enough when you hit a bump the play in hte pedal could disengage it.
