I had the same problem a few years back .
I found that Both of the horns were RS and replaced them, Then magicaly the cruise control came back to life
I have absolutely NO idea how this worked but it did.
So my cruise control and horn have decided to quit on me. Bastards.
Nanocom reports brake switch 1 and 2 are working correctly. Brake lights are working correctly. Horn fuse is OK but I replaced with a tested good one anyway. Changed the horn relay with the fog light relay and the ACE relay. No change.
Nanocom does NOT report any change in the status of the set/resume steering wheel switches. Nanocom also reports the changes in the status cruise control master switch correctly.
So this leads me to the conclusion that the clock spring is fubar even though the steering wheel radio controls work properly. Is that a reasonable conclusion or have I missed something ?
Cheers,

Thanks for that Slunnie - it give me more thing to try when we next have a break on our trip up north. The wiring diagram will be especially useful. Thanks to a Win10 update I have no rave unless I can get going in my iPad.
It’s a pity it decided to play up only after our enforced break at Woomera due to the SA lockdown. It could’ve packed up at the start of the lockdown then I would’ve had a week to play with it. We’ve got to Coober Pedy and our next spare time is Alice Springs.
I tested the horn by wiring it directly and it’s OK - bloody loud at close range though.

While we’ve been stuck in Newman waiting for a new front drive shaft which we can pickup on Monday I’ve been fiddling around trying to get the horn anc cruise control working. It transpired that the right side horn button got itself jammed up somehow. Pulling the whole assembly out and carefully reassembling it seems to have restored normal operation. Now that the cruise control switches report correctly on my nanocom I have high hopes for after I get the new drive shaft fitted.
I have today that getting a loctited steering wheel nut undone provides hours of “amusement “.

Hi Mark, probably not really 'required now' that you've figured out the electrical issue, but on the topic of RAVE not working.
Did you 'install' RAVE from the CD onto the PC?
If so, try this a a bit of a longshot to see if it works for 'ya.
In file explorer on Win10, click on the C drive on the LHS pane. Then search it for a file named cdlt010x (proper file name is cdlt010x.pdf) and hopefully it will find it somewhere on the C drive if you have it installed.
If you don't have it installed(fully) and needed the CD/DVD to view the manuals, then insert the disc and search that device instead of the C drive.
You technically don't need the RAVE program to work to see the pdf files.
if you do locate this pdf file, just open it with any PDF viewer program(I use SumatraPDF myself).
Once you know the name of the files that relate to the section of the manual you want to open, and those files are on the hard drive, it's easy to do manually.
And the file names kind'a make sense. so if you can find ellt file, then the workshop manual pdf for the D2 is called wmlt(and a number after that) .. wm(ie. workshop manual) lt(ie. D2) .. and I have no idea what the number is referring too.
I never installed the RAVE .. just copied all the files over to the hard drive and opened them as required.
Hopefully that's it for your niggles on your trip .. and from here on it's all smooth running.
Arthur.

In one of the D2 faceplant groups there is an iPad friendly RAVE in the files section. Seeing as I never travel without my iPad mini (drone controller screen, ebook repository, etc. ) it works for me.
