Cruise Control Not working

[TURBOTAXI]

Mmmm our 5 speed EF wagon has cruise and the CRUISE comes up on the dash when you press on. but the set light does not come on when we try to set. The car was only a cheapie, and if the cruise never works again I will still be happy with the car.
I have replaced the globes after reading another thread, but still no luck. Anything else to look at on a 5 speed EF?

My fault finding was based on the flow charts supplied by fordmods.com
The charts are based on the EL/EF model and the AU is the same set up from a wiring persepcetive to the cruise module.
I hear the E series had a problem with the brake switch. The clock spring is a common problem as well. There is no real reason for the buttons to fail unless one is stuck.
Really there are plenty of things it could be but I would certainly suggest trying here
