Well, today my left rear turn signal went out. Now my indicator light is blinking crazy fast. That's to be expected, I think. Anyway, this is my problem, when the cruise is on and engaged, I move the lever for a right lane change and the cruise disengages. As soon as I flip the lever back I can engage the cruise again. But if the lever is in the position for a right lane change or turn, the cruise will not engage. I've never had this problem before. Even at high speeds, I have accelerated with the cruise and changed a lane at the same time. What could be going on? I really don't think that the blown bulb and the cruise are in any way connected, but I thought I would run it by you guys before I take it to the shop. Thanks.

Yeah, I'm gonna get that crazy blinking fixed today. We'll see if the other problem stops when I change the bulb. I'll keep you guys posted on what happens. Thanks.

Alright guys. I just changed the bulb out. I'll let you know if the cruise is still not working when I get home from work.

If that light doesn't fix it, chances are it's a bad multifunction switch. Around $70ish and you should be able to replace it yourself.

Well, guess what? That crazy light fixed it. I couldn't believe it. We're all good now. I just can't comprehend how the cruise control and a burnt bulb have anything to do with each other. Thanks for the help guys.

I would expect such things from Microsoft, but not a GP... At least those features pay the mortage

It's so you know you have a bulb out, IIRC when the third brake light bulb goes you can't pop the trunk with the glovebox button. Gotta love those electrical engineers.
