Richard,
Good advice! I was rather thorough in verifying everything worked after installing the LED tail lights, signals, running lights, brake lights, and yes the flashers all worked. I did not have to replace the flasher relay as I still have incandescent bulbs on the front and sides so all is well. It all got rechecked when I installed a new steering column this winter.
Unfortunately it never occurred to me to check the cruise control and that cost me a new unit. Maybe this one will work better than the vintage unit as it was not really fast or powerful enough to operate the throttle adequately. At least I didn't throw away the other unit and may be able to repurpose it.....maybe my lawnmower.....LOL
