thank you. cruise control hasn't worked for sometime, then speedometer quit working. Mechanic told me that speed sensor was at fault but couldn't find one and there was a nation wide back order. Now, speedometer works but cruise control doesn't. also, electric radio antenna wont go up or down and mechanic told me motor not available because car is obsolete and would try junk yard for one.
I would be grateful for your help.
Thank you.

Hi Nickolay,

Thank you for the donation.

If the speedometer works erratcally, the cruise control would not work.

NO CRUISE CONTROL WHEN SET BUTTON IS PRESSED & RELEASED
Check for: blown fuse, no vacuum at servo and/or defective servo, disconnected speed control
cable, brakelight switch out of adjustment, faulty electrical circuit, faulty park/neutral safety
switch input to SBEC and/or faulty SBEC.

As to the radio antenna, if parts are not available, you can consider getting a different make to be installed, maybe with a little modification.
