Re: Cruise control issue

I Checked the pad, it WAS missing, I replaced it with a gromet for the door. and checked the switch it self for continuity. switch seems OK.

however, the issue is the same. there is another switch at the top of the Clutch pedal, and one for the brake, could these be an issue?
