Cruise control wiring.

[chase.grantham.7]

I have an 82 silverado, it has a blinker/cruise control stalk without wiper function. I swapped a 6.0 in and I'm wanting to hook up cruise control, it needs a momentary for accel/decel and on/off switch, I wanted to use the stock stalk/switch but I don't think it will work. Every picture of the stock wiring I can find shows a wire with a flat blade that appears to have 2 maybe four terminals on it. Does anyone have the schematics for the stalk I have, it doesn't "plug" in it has a screw that holds it on. I have ordered switches I can mount in the dash but I really want to use the stock parts. Are the "set" and "coast" buttons momentary? How many poles does each switch really have?

Did you see the Cruise control info in the tech section?

Yes I did now, thanks for the info it's exactly what I needed.  I think I have a way to make it work, let me know what you think. I can connect 12v to the center pin and pin 3 will be energized when I switch the cruise on, pin 1 will be energized when I hit the set button and I can connect 1 and 3 to a relay for the resume button, is there anything wrong with this? I am attaching the stock schematics and the directions for cruise for drive by wire.

Should work.  Let me know what you find.  I have a cruise setup for mine that I haven't tackled yet.

Finally started to try to tackle this on my truck today.  Everything seemed to check out using an ohm meter, but I think after hitting the switch a few times something inside broke. Where there once was a perceivable click from off to on there is now no resistance on the slider until I slide it to resume, and now the leads don't ohm out.  I want to get another turn/cruise stalk, but it seems I have an odd year or something; the stalks I find are either turn signal only or are turn/cruise and wiper, my truck's wiper controls are in dash.  I've looked on every parts site I can think of rockauto, ,oreileys,autozone,napa, even ebay and can't even find a picture of this stalk. Does anyone have an idea of where to go to find this? I'm attaching a pic of my steering wheel and stalk.

Hey,
I know this is an old thread but I was wondered if you ever solved your cruiser control issue? I'm looking to do an LS swap (n the future) and trying to figure on dealing with this. I hope you can share some kind of update? Thanks.
