I think I'm having an issue with the cruise control in my '89 Grand Wagoneer, but I'm not sure what the problem might be. When cruise is engaged, I can't increase (or decrease) my speed using the buttons on the turn signal stalk. I need to completely turn off the system, accelerate (or decelerate) to the new speed, and press the engagement button again. Besides this issue, the cruise control system works great.
For example, if I'm cruising along at 45 mph and hold the R/A button until my vehicle reaches 50 mph, the Jeep will decelerate back down to 45 mph as soon as I release R/A. The same thing happens with the Decel/Engagement button, except in reverse.
Every other cruise system I've used has worked differently... tap R/A to increase by 1 mph, or tap Decel/Engagement to decrease by 1 mph.
I've already swapped out the yellow cruise control box with another one, to no avail. Do I have a problem or is this just the way that AMC designed it?
