Hi Tom! Welcome to IRV2! We're sure glad you joined the gang!

Congrats on the new rig! I'm not a Fleetwood guy so can't answer your question. Keep her between the ditches!

Good luck, happy trails, and God bless!

Welcom to the forum..

IMPORTANT - There is a Ford recall that effects Cruise Control . The brake switch can leak, and short internally, This then causes a fire. This can happen sitting in storage or on the road..

Take your VIN number to any ford dealer. tell them your having a problem with the cruise control and is your vehicle part of the recall..

There should be 2, 2 amp fuses under or near the master cylinder if the recall was done. They are ATC fuses in little holders.

If either fuse is blown, the switch shorted out and is a cheap replacement from most auto parts stores. Ask for a Ford cruise control cancel switch.

What chassis is your Fleetwood on? I would think it is a Workhorse.
