    When my cruise quit, it turned out to be the brake switch.

    I have a 2000 GP GT

    Wow guys, I guess I'll check the brake light after work and see, LOL.

    I hope ya'll are right, I'll follow-up.

    Like mentioned could be a bulb or brake switch, although it's doubtful that they kicked out that easily.

    The cruise module on the firewall isn't typically loud, well...I can't say that I've ever heard one.

    Check where the cruise cable attaches to the throttle body. If that clip broke, then it won't be able to work the throttle.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Allright I paid a shop to diagnose it and they said it was the cruise control module which is around $330. They wanted $580 including the diagnosing fee to fix it. yeah right.

    Could I assume it really is the module and attempt to fix it myself. Maybe go to the junkyard and cut one off. Anyone ever changed one of these?

    I can check the throttle cables but it was a reputable place (Fire$tone).
