Good morning,

My 1978 450SE has cruise control but it doesn't work at all. Can anyone give me so insight on where to start to try and diagnose it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I'm guessing that you didn't search, as volumes have been written on this topic.  TThe causes are varied.  But before spending a lot of time on it read THIS and decide how much effort you want to put into it.  Cheers,
