About a year ago my radio started to not go out but the sound would go down and if I turned it all the way up I could hear what sounded like the old tin can and string phone we used as kids to play. Yes Im getting old. It would come and go every day or so. Since it has gotten to where it goes out for days. I also noticed that my blinker/door chime cannot be heard during this outage also. Now about 3-4 months ago my cruise control started to not work. I can turn the power on and it lights up but when I try to set it nothing happens. Sometimes it will start working again the same day and othertimes it doesnt work for days. I think it has something to do with wet or cold weather making it happen but cant nail it down. Has anyone heard of this?

try lifting the brake pedal with your foot and then setting the cruise control, if it works then theres a good chance you need a new brake switch which is very common, as far as your radio/audio noises without being there to play with it I don't know of anything to suggest.

Thank you very much cleveland63b. I will give it a try this afternoon.

Cleveland63b, you were right, the minute I lifted that brake pedal a fraction the cruise set. I will try adjusting it tomorrow. Thank you again

depending on your vehicle most of them don't have an adjustment but don't cost much to get a new one, I would recommend using OE I've seen a lot of aftermarket switches fail within a few months
