Cruise control

T-2000, when I turn the cruise on, the dash shows that its on and set for whatever speed, but for some reason it does not work. Where should I start?

There should be a switch attached to your clutch linkage, chaeck and make sure that it is fully released.

Now that you mentioned the jake, it will be off but yet still sound like its on sometimes between the first couple of gears

Had the same problem on my W900 neither the cruise or the jake would work. Ended up being the clutch pedal wasn't coming all the way up. Got that fixed and now it works fine.

With the Cascadia I drive, I can leave a rest area without ever touching the brakes and the cruise will not set speed until I touch the brakes at least once.

I also had a truck i could not get the cruise on and they told me you have to put your foot on the brake before you release the park brake and then the comp. will recognize the cruise i hope t his helps.
