yeah i did all the basic stuff. fixed it on the way to work yesterday while driving; the cruise control release switch next to the brake switch had become adjusted in too far and wasnt making contact. i pushed it in with my finger ( my dash has been completely apart for a while so it was easy to get to) and it went right into lockup. thanks for the help man
