haven't experienced the cruise cutting out using the indicator/wiper stalk but do experience cutting out when using it to reduce/gain speed and again does what yours does being temperamental working when it feels like it i have cleaned them up but with no joy I think there's a thread on here about this I think the only way to resolve this is to replace them unsure of cost as haven't looked into it but def seems to be a common problem

 

I was going to have the buttons changed but now I'm starting to think it's the module itself

I was looking at the links and don't really know whether or not to replace the buttons themselves or what so many possible component failures in that system

have you tried disconnecting battery and see if it resets

 

No haven't tried disconnecting the battery, have tried clearing codes

 

ive disconnected battery all works fine for few days then just plays up

when I get some time im going to give ford a ring to get price on buttons and see where to go from there(if there expensive ill live with it playing up) im sure someone on here might give some advice

I did quite a while back speak to someone at ford about this was told to clean them up as seems a common problem which I have cleaned so is leading me to think this route first ill keep this updated if I ever get around in doing it and what the outcome is

 

I think i will probably go down the same route in a few weeks, driving me insane

well I've just phoned ford about price for these buttons wait for it...............£101.06 ..........................EACH SIDE unreal price when I was told I thought that was for both of them

I think I will live with it unless I can find some on eBay but then you never know if they had the same problem so could be wasting your money

 

Loads about on ebay.

Message the seller with your concerns and ask if they will accept a refund if the buttons don't work. Even offering to pay return shipping and getting a couple of faulty ones first would be better than 200 quid.

http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/291121515005 from a TitX, others may be able to say if you need ones for your trim level. Not sure if adaptive cruise etc alters the button layout. Ideally some from the same trim level as yours would be good. I bet there's whole wheels with air bag for less than 200 on there.
Ford are morons. It's like they don't want to make a sale. If their parts prices were at least semi competitive they could make a business of it. I guess that's why my local dealer is also a unipart agent and only too happy to source OEM quality repro parts.

cheers for that see they are now sold but your def right about ford they are a joke in the prices they ask

 

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111357551216?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

was just having a look at these but underneath the( can )button mine has( off )would these be compatible can anyone advise

 

Wouldn't risk it with those. Likely the button would just perform the off function on your car but it might not. That one looks like for setting a speed limit or, maybe it's off a car with adaptive cruise and ones for normal, ones for adaptive.

Currently having the same issue. Dealer has replaced the steering wheel buttons under warranty which seemed to fix the problem for a few weeks but it has come back. Next up is the clock spring.

As sudden as it started has gone back to working perfectly since my last post, hopefully this is permanent fingers crossed

ill give it a week lol

 

My 59 plate Titanium X started doing exactly the same "set-" or left indication would turn system off. As it was a company car it went back to the lease company with the fault. My my Tit X sport is doing something similar. I was told the switch's were sealed units and so could not be cleaned. Has any one stripped them down to find out?

Cars in to Ford on Tuesday for the clock spring replacement under warranty. Cruise control is still playing up. Works less and less frequently.

 

Update: cruise control still working perfectly so far, looks like dousing the buttons in contact cleaner may have worked in my case

 

Today is the fateful day. Been in the garage since 8AM. We'll see how it goes after I pick it up from work.

Apparently the Ford's warranty people aren't too happy at having to replace the switches and the clock spring.

 

So...did it work?

So far... Yes. It's been working perfectly. I'm going to give it another week or two before I say for sure however. Last time they had the clock spring out just to replace the switches it worked perfectly fine for a few weeks then got worse than it was originally.
