Cruise control doesn't work. RESOLVED - Pictures included.

Found this. Off to see what is shows.
If it's a manual, don't depress the clutch. If it's an automatic leave it in park. First, turn the ignition to the accessory/run position but don't start it. Press and hold the CC off switch and then repeatedly turn the ignition from run to off and back to run again, you should do this 3 or 4 times. End this sequence with the ignition in the run position and then let go of the off switch, and you should see your CC light blink once, which means it's ready to run the self diagnostic. If it flashes 5 times at this point then it's a faulty speed control module, which is that servo I mentioned above. Quickly after the light blinks (like a second after), you then need to hit the other cruise control buttons in this order, and you will need to hit them fairly quickly for the test to proceed:
1. On
2. Resume
3. Coast
4. Set/accel
The CC light should blink once after each button you hit. Kind of take your time hitting the buttons and it's easier to keep track of the flashes, which is important at the end because you need to count the number of flashes that come after you hit "set". There won't be an immediate flash after you hit "set", there will be a slight delay, and then will come another short series of flashes. This next part is all verbatim (except for the parenthesis) from the Ford guide I'm translating here.
0 Flashes (no flash after last button is pushed): suspect circuitry or speed control steering wheel switches.
1 Flash: Static test passed (cruise control should work)
2 Flashes: BPP (brake pedal position) switch is damaged, circuit is damaged, or the brake or clutch pedal was applied during test.
3 Flashes: Brake deactivation switch is open or circuit is damaged.
4 Flashes: Indicates the speed signal circuit is open or damaged (wheel speed sensors, ETC)
5 Flashes: Suspect circuitry or module.

Ok. No flashes.
Here is where the problem is. The cable freely moves in and out of the plastic clip that attached to the throttle body. I assume when the guys did the motor swap they removed a "c" clip or something that hold it there OR is there a way to adjust the slack on the cable?

Is it connected on the other side? The cruise control servo could be disconnected on the other end of the cable. I believe this sits on the firewall.

I fixed it...
I went to OSH hardware. I got a "servalite" #3003U or sku#039008215369 & "socket set screws" they needed to be longer since the cable was only 1/16" #8-32x3/8 or sku#030699369485

Cool pics and part #'s. My cruise just stopped working a few weeks ago and I'm going to have to run the test as posted to see what's going on. Glad you got your fix in!

Cheers,

Scott

Your welcome. Although my hunch says my issue was due to my spi>zetec swap.
