Thanks for the video it answers a lot of questions and makes it simple to work on my cruise now. It seems to be harder to find people that can answer questions about these older trucks. Good job.
Great video. Thank you very much! ❤
I have been looking forever for this video. Keep all the great 87-91 videos coming!
Thank you so much for this. I wasn't able to find a good enough video on this to tackle this project but I believe I'll finally add cruise to my 1988 F150!
This was great, and now I can test my system to find out why it is not working for me
What a wonderful video! High-quality, good info. Thank you!
Absolutely great pacing. Thought I knew all the obs tricks. Nice to learn some new ones

Thanks! didn’t get a chance to work on it- Rain 🌧️ and cold 🥶
Thank you Sir. What a great explanation. Much appreciate it.
your a great man! many many thanks, i just inherited a 1990 fordxlt 150 and is my first time operating a efi motor, so you got me thinkin in the right direction because ii'd probably be methodicaly thinkin of how this old truck runs without a damn carb 😆😂😉
Very well done! I will like to see one for these old trucks on how to troubleshoot them, wiring harness test and so on. 1991 F150, Mine stopped working, out of the blue and a good schematic will actually help.
Thank you……this is gonna help diagnose my non working cruise control…….
I came here to help diagnose a speed control system, not install one, but there's a lot of good info here. Good work. 👍

I am doing this addition to my Manual 1991 F150, and I was wondering where the gray safety switch plug went. Is it a part of the harness, or does it plug in elsewhere? Thanks!
Great video! I have a 91 f250. I swapped the zf5 into my 1986 f150. Thinking the cruise control will come along as well.
Thanks for this

No problem. Thanks for watching!
Great video, I'm planning on this swap too. I noticed that 90-91 trucks don't have the little grey 2-pin connector under the kick panel, but im not sure why, or if it matters?
If you replace a Ford Factory 87-91 “Non Cruise Control” steering wheel on a same years factory Cruise Control steering column’ will a dash check light come on since “Cruise Control” isn’t hooked up anymore.
Excellent 👍

@@dexterranch I made sure all the pieces of the puzzle are there and connected as you described. The cruise control is intermittent and mostly not turning on! any thoughts which component could be the culprit? the servo ?, the cut-off switch…

My gut says servo. I would start by thoroughly cleaning the male and female side of the connector that goes in the side of the servo. Also try to get a little dielectric grease in each pin. Make sure the horn is functioning properly. If it’s not it could be a grounding issue from the column to the frame. Hope this helps.
I have an 87 with the 5.0L gas engine. Has cruise control...but it ain't working. won't engage. I checked the fuses...all good. check the vacuum line going to the servo...lots of vacuum present. checked and adjusted the vacuum purge valve hooked to the brake pedal. what should I check next?
I'll take the 1st comment and the 1st thumbs up😉🙂

@@dexterranch well things have been kinda crazy here, we had a fire a few weeks ago and lost are barn and pretty much everything in it, I was able to get all my cow out so we didn't loose any critters. Now we're fighting with insurance they don't want to pay out cause we had equipment in there for are lawn business so there trying to say it should have been covered by business insurance not homeowners. So it been real fun.

We went to are regional Dexter meeting in September I was thinking about you then.
So in theory, I can add the factory cc from my '95 parts truck and slap it in my '88? Both are f250 5.8 4wd

92-96 is different stuff from 87-91.
