My cruise started by shutting off every once and a while and now does not work at all. I couldnt find a bad fuse. Could it be a bad switch? 2nd question, are there any websites with exploded views of my steering wheel. It has an air bag also do I have to worry about it deploying if I have to replace the switch?

A diagram will be tricky here, other Ford models is not easily looked up! If you try to pull the air bag, dissconnect the negative battery cable for 2-3 mins to deactivate it...In the mean time check the cruise deactivTION SWITCH ON THE MASTER, UNPLUG IT AND JUMP THE TWO terminals on the connector.
