OK So we still have a Williams Dana Cruise Control on our '82. I had it working earlier but it quit recently. I wanted to share the repair.
I pulled the Card and cleaned it with some Electrical Cleaner (I think that it was CRC). I then took a new and soft eraser and cleaned the connections where it plugs in. I then replaced the Fuse Holder with a new fuse. These repairs lasted about a year and a half until it quit working again.
After a recent complete inspection I found that the Magnet had come off of the Transmission just before where the Drive Shaft is connected and under where the Sensor would pick up the Signal. I found the proper Magnets at a local Hardware Store for $1.00 and used some JB Weld to epoxy it on. It works great!!!
The latest repair cost a little under $5.00.
