I own a 2003 GTI 1.8T with 36Kmi. Immaculate condition. (Still has original tires)
Between last night and this morning the cruise control quit working.
I turn the switch on and the light in the dash comes on and the set and resume buttons do nothing.
Any one else had this issue, or any ideas?

Fixed the problem, 4-pin brake light switch was bad, I never knew the brake lights were not working.

There was a recall for those a couple years back. It is called the N4 recall. Any dealer will have the switch. It's only like 8 bucks at max. For Jetta, Golf, Beetle, GTI.... the switch is green. If it's for a passat the switch is black. However since recalls don't expire, it won't cost you a dime.

This recall also applies to Audi.
