I recently purchased a 2013 Ford Escape Titanium. Great shape, low miles. Everything is good, except for the fact that cruise control stopped working. It doesn't even turn on! I'm baffled as to why it wouldn't, because it worked when I test drove it, I used it a few times. I did do an update to the Sync system, and after that, it seemed to have stopped working. I have no idea how the two would be related, as they seem like completely different systems, but who knows? I've tried disconnecting the battery, I checked connections for the brake pedal switch, going to check fuses, checked every setting I could get to in every menu I could find!
I'm at a loss if it's not a fuse, other than some part failure. But what part? What would it most likely be? Hopefully, it's not expensive, and if it's software related, I hope I can fix it on my own (not feeling lucky with that, given how much the dealer has to do with such things). Please help! I drive a lot on the interstate, and I miss my cruise control. Finding the issue is driving me nuts!
