    Cruise control issue fixed (horn fuse)

    My Cruse control stopped working just the other day, after looking through the forum posts I was planning on removing the Cruise control ecu and checking all the inputs. However looking at the fuse box today I found a blown fuse for the horn, I don't know when it blew as it was working last weekend (and so was the cruise control). After replacing this fuse (fuse 16 in the engine bay) I tested the cruse control and it worked. I have no idea as to why, I can't find any documented link between the horn fuse and the cruise control.
    Any Ideas? Am I missing something?

    Cheers Marc

    I can confirm (using RAVE) that this fuse powers the rotary coupler on the steering column, so therefore provides power to the horn and the cruise control switches.

    The only thing I can think I did was to cancel the cruise control, by testing the red button on the trailer brake controller. The red button is a manual override and lights up the brake lights and applies the electric trailer brakes.

    I havent been anywhere near water, other than the past week of Ex tropical cyclone.

    Thanks for the answer.
