Troubleshoot dead Cruise Control
My Cruise Control doesn't work and wondering if anyone can tell me how to troubleshoot the Audi Cruise Control. From what I can tell, the Audi Cruise Control runs off either pressure or vacuume, unlike Japanese Cruise. This is a bit out of my knowledgebase. THANK YOU...

Mine does not engage when I hit the button on the stalk...
Apparently it is dirty contacts inside the stalk. I have read that some parts cleaner from Radio Shack, sprayed strategically, can help restore operation.
Are you seeing this behavior, or is yours engaging and not holding speed?

I followed these instructions as posted in the FAQ section with "mixed" results
Immediately after following the instructions, my CC worked again for a few days but now no longer works. I will have to try this again since the obvious problem is in the switch.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a4/msgs/2383753.phtml">>>> CLICK FOR LINKED POST FROM FAQ IN CASE YOU MISSED IT<<<</a></li></ul>

Clean switch didn't fix problem, whats next?
Try cleaning the switch didn't correct the problem. Now I got my A4 as used and CC never worked. I also notices I don't need to clutch in to start the motor but can't tell if this is normal or just German car thing. Any other ideas??

Try a search for more CC info.
The lack of clutch to start the car seems to be "normal" on the older cars--it's like that on my '97 as well. Good luck
