I installed the Rostra electronic Cruise a couple years ago. It had been working for the most part. Just a little temperamental at times having to set it a few times before it took.
It isn’t working now. I checked for power and ground. Both are good. Does anybody have any suggestions for me? I just don’t know where else to check at this point,

I had similar problems on two occasions - the solutions for me were
found under the coach, at the magnets glued to the shaft and the wires
connected to the pickup - first fix was replacing the magnets glued to
the shaft (one had disappeared - two are necessary on FWD vehicles); the
second fix identified that the spade clips attaching the wires to the
pickup were oily and loose.  Cleaned and crimped tighter.
