Neither was burned out. Cruise now works at all speeds. WTF?
Old cruise controls do that. They can become intermittent. Sometimes
using them daily improves reliably and sometimes not (but they USUALLY
act up again following a period of disuse). They will often work for an
hour or two and then quit or they may not work until the engine is
REALLY warmed up. Resolding by someone with really good soldering skills
corrects these ABOUT 50% of the time (if you don't have really well
developed soldering skills DON'T practice on a cruise amp). Some units
really require replacement of the electrolytic capacitors or even
transistors. Schematics are very scarce - Mercedes doesn't supply them
to anyone.
