Subject:Cruise Control Mystery

Folks,

Yesterday after work I ran through the Bentley's flow chart of "how to
diagnose your cruise control."

Every test worked exactly as the book said it should.....except, of course,
the last one where you check ohms across the speed sensor. The action to
take since I had infinite ohms, according to the book, is to replace the
speed sensor.

I pulled the instrument cluster and the little sensor. It seems fine...
there is no resistance across it... it has no moving parts to break.

So.... the problem must be (somewhere) in the wiring between the cruise
control unit and the speed sensor. Sound logical?
