Default cruise control wont work

I have a 92 accord ex AT and When i turn on the cruise control the cruise control light on the dash turns on and when i take my foot off the gas the car doesnt stay at that speed it just drops and drops. if i press the accelerate button it wont accel unless im at 45-55mph. checked for vacuum leaks but couldnt find any. any ideas?? Thanks in advance.

Check for loose or broken cable in throttle body. Maybe a bad diaphram on CC unit itself. Check fuses and Relays if is not a vacumm controoled unit.

I havent had a chance to check any of those. I went to Cedar Point OH, about 225 miles, and when i got up to 60+ mph it stayed where it should and the accel and decelerate buttons works. Just Puzzles me. My guest is the cc unit or the diaphram

What speed were you trying to do it at?

IIRC it's like 20 and lower it will not work.

from what I remember, Cruise control works after 30mph. If your cruise control doesn't work at all then U have a problem with impedence, there are two lights in the push button that goes green when U push, when U set the button on the steering, it turns on at U'r dash light.
