Replaced ABS ECU, now cruise doen't work.

I replaced the ABS ecu, and now my cruise control doesn't work.
(TBH, it might not have worked before - but I was told it did!)
Is the cruise control controlled by the ABS ecu, so might just need activating via tech2?
or am I likely to have another problem?
I've had a look at previous threads re. cruise problems, and I can't see any obvious problems (like cable disconnected etc)

The only part the ABS plays is providing a speed signal.

So if the speedo is working then its not the ABS at fault.

It could be a red herring.
I'm not definite that the cruise control on mine ever worked.
I know it's got the winter pack AND the cruise fitted, which elitepete says was never standard.
So it's possible someone has retro-fitted it, and never activated it.

IIRC the cable from the cruise to the throttle bodies was quite bent due to the location of the cruise control
