No... it was _headlights_ and cruise. On my '95, the jake (an exhaust-
type) is fully integrated with the automatic transmission and cruise
control. When cruise is set, the jake will cycle on-off on down
slopes to keep the speed in check. Only touching the brake turns off
the cruise.

Now, having written that, it makes me wonder if I'm getting some
'crosstalk' between the tail and _brake_ lights that might be killing
the cruise control...

I do have diodes in the toad brake lights. I would have been happier
with retaining the "European" tail/turn separation, but the umbilical
cords didn't have enough wires to allow that _and_ to provide power
to the transmission lube pump (required for my toad). The only
obvious symptom is the alarm for the lube pump that activates when
power isn't getting through. If it were only the lights, I'd never
know once we're on the road.

I have two umbilical cords that I've checked and tested. The first
time I encountered the problem, I actually had a loose wire in the
umbilical cord plug -- but that's been fixed. Both cables test
"clean" without undue resistance.

Thanks.
