∙ 19y ago@150K, there is a Strong chance that you have low oil pressure. As such, there is a electronic oil pressure sending unit on the lower front right side of the block. Unplug it for a few seconds. If your check engine light goes away, theres your problem. I personally would hook up a $17 manual oil pressure guage just to be safe. As for the cruise controll problem, this is a common problem. just outside of the transmission, there is an electrical attachment to a vehicle speed sensor. Check both the wires leading into it and the connctions at the sensor itself. Replace at your descretion. As for the o2 sensor, it is possible, but not likely. o2 sensors will rarely set of a trouble code on an EFI motor unless you have a cylinder not firing.

∙ 19y agoThe most common cause for a cruise control that stops working is that the electrical components or switches have stopped working. Sometimes taking it apart and cleaning the contacts will fix the problem.?æ
check fuses then refer to the speed control sensor which is on the throttle body closest to the air intake hose that controls the engine idle and speed control. Good luck.
Change the cruise control switch.

The wiper control module on a 1998 Mercury Grand Marquis can be found behind the instrument panel. It is close to the steering column, on the right side.
You can view the 1997 Mercury Grand Marquis owners manual online at : www . motorcraft service . com ( no spaces ) Click on Owner Guides ( starting on page 90 , the owner guide has pictures and instructions for the functions the turn signal lever does , explains the cruise control buttons etcetera )
Check your fuses and wiring to the control first.
