Cruise control stopped working

[SKM348]

Right out of the blue it stopped working. Check fuse box inside and there is no slot identified for cruise control. Any idea of where to check or what to do? I have an '02 ES 5sp
w/56k miles
Thanks

this might sound outrageous, but check your rear brake lights. the cruise control system is tied into your brake circuit, and i believe if you have a brake bulb out, the cruise won't work.

Duh, the main switch was not on!

Thanks to everyone, the 'main' switch on the steering wheel was turned off!! I had forgotten about it since it is not visible.

As a side note, my cruise does work right away in the morning when it's cold. My car sits out on my driveway all night and it won't work until I've driven several miles and the engines warm up.
