Solution to my limp home problem

The car is a Federal '93 300CE that I have owned for 2 years. It came with a peculiar problem in that it went into "limp home" at the start of each day within 1/4 mile of my house. No ASR light and stopping and restarting would clear it for the rest of the day. Changed all of the usual suspects: brake switch, OVP relay, micro switch on throttle linkage, 2 different throttle actuators, speed sensors front and rear, brake light connections and holders, ASR controller, new tires, new engine temp sender, all to no avail. Error codes still pointed to the ETA. Then the Cruise Control failed. Found a used "E-gas" controller although EPC calls it a "Cruise/Idle" controller. Installed it and the limp home has STOPPED. Didn't solve the Cruise Control problem but a new stalk switch should do it.
