I push the cruise on and the light comes on in the information center. I push set and then it says canceled. I do have a air intake manifold running actuator pin missing. Which is causing my check engine light to come on. Also rough idling, sometimes hard to start and poor gas mileage. I am in the process of taking care of the actuator pin or clip. Would that affect my cruise control? Also, the front doors do not automatically lock or unlock like the other back ones.

Hello,

the cruise control will not work with the check engine light on you must get that fixed first before the cruise can work.

As far as the door issue please start another question.

Best, Ken
