The manual says '95-'98 because they are all the same.
The rear windows not working is common, the circuit board in the window lift ECU cracks and then they dont work.
Remove the window lift ECU, resolder the cracks, windows now work.
It is behind the glove box, open glove box, remove liner, remove window lift ECU.
As for the cruise, there is a vacuum pump that the cruise gets its vacuum from, it is on the passenger side engine bay.

That vacumn pump on my 97 was actaully in the damdest place. It is located in the very front right beside the headlight in the opening between the headlight and where the horn mounts under the hood. It is a trip to reach.
And the window lift ECU housing is bolted in in such a way that removal is a bitch. As it turns out though, you do not need to nubolt and remove the housing, pull the connector off the bottom of the Window ECU housing and grab the edge of the circuit board with needlenose pliers and you can pull it right out of the housing.
With mine you had to put a little finger pressure on the leads and you could see the bad joint open up. I reflowed them all and it works fine. I have read where others tried tow or more times before finding the bad joint. Get a good soldering iron and reflow all of the ones you can get to and it will be better.
