Yeah, intermittent cruise, if they use buttons on the steering wheel are an indication the clock spring has some fault.
Clock springs are easy to test as they all seem to use a resistive ladder arrangement for the buttons. That means the resistance changes when different buttons are pressed. So using a multimeter and checking resistance while wiggling steering from side to side should tell you if it's ok.
BUT airbags are dangerous and i've no idea what volts or current can set them off, so i wouldn't connect a multimeter until you look at the service manual procedures for this and read and understand it in detail. (usually it's to disconnect car battery and wait a while, then disconnect front airbag connector). Now you can test the existing clock spring before considering replacement.
If it is faulty, great, then replacement is easy. No reprograming is needed because it's just a flat ribbon cable with connectors each end. Disconnect the car battery and wait a while to discharge the airbag system. Then take off the steering wheel (which you've centred already) and now you should be able to see the clock spring. Each vehicle brand/make/model has its own methods tp remove the clock spring but it's reasonably straight forward and should be self evident. Ideally you need a steering wheel puller to safely remove the wheel (i've seen a person smack themselves on the forehead manually pulling the wheel off; the laughter wasn't appreciated).
The only issue is that new clock springs are centred and have a pin that you pull during install. With an old clock spring, you have to gently find and centre the device. Gently and fully rotating one way and then the other way counting the turns. Then you must ensure its centred before installing. Otherwise if its not centred, and you install it (turned half way to the left), the first time you do a full turn (to the left), you'll tear the flat ribbon cable within the clock spring housing.
But if you can't fault the clock spring during the test, it's something else...
I can't point you to VE workshop manual but google may help on that front.
