Alright, I'm diving head-first into this cruise control problem...
First, I checked the fuse(s), everything looks good.
I moved onto the switch on the left side of the steering wheel. No lights come on, but it appears that its functional when I put a voltmeter up to it.
I tested the actuator as per the service manual. The instructions were vague; I didn't hear the motor but I did hear some clicking when I applied the jumpers to the unit. Does this mean its working or not?
I'm going to the junk yard this week and getting a new switch (just to rule that out). Stay tuned...

Yeah, the brake light switch (at the brake pedal) will disengage the cruise control. It's certainly not the ONLY possible thing to cause the problem, but it deserves checking.
If that switch is stuck, you'll have 2 problems together... no cruise control, and your brake lamps will be on all the time.

I have seen where an improper adjustment will cause one side of the circut to close (brake lights off) and the "other" side not (cruise) so it is worth testing. Of course we are not sure what year you have. Might be the same as the OP but not stated.
Then if a manual trans there is another switch involved.
