When any (lights ) such as Check Engine Light , Traction Control Light or ABS light come on the cruise control is disabled . Have your codes read or have a shop find the problem .

Not always. I’ve never had a car where the CEL disabled the cruise. And in our old Town & Country Minivan the ABS light didn’t disable the cruise control. Now I will admit that my newest car is an 09 and I’ve seen threads on here where more lights come on in newer cars to try and alert the driver to a problem so they aren’t as likely to keep driving with them on
