You may also want to check vacuum hoses for crack/leaks

No vacuum hoses, the cruise control is all electric. Make sure the stop lights are not stuck on. Led tail light bulbs can stop the cruise from working in some cases. The buttons on the steering wheel are old enough to fail.

If electric, I assume there is a cruise control module under the hood somewhere. You/he will need a Ford E350 engine diagram or repair manual... might want to also check with some Ford truck forums, as the setup is probably shared with some of the trucks/vans of that era.
