    Cruse control buttons?

    Hello to all. First post here. I have been having difficulty setting the cruse to come on. After much pushing and hitting, it works. I feel I can say it is not the clock spring, horn works and no airbag lights. Any ideas? Do the buttons come off to be cleaned somehow? Thanks for...
