Shop adjusted clutch way to far. Now cruise won't work. Says depress and release clutch. Is there more then one clutch pedal position switch on linkage somewhere. Clutch engages just off floor.

The clutch part might be adjusted right... I believe that particular model (although I'm not 100% certain, as I don't deal with Petes very often) uses an air assist hydraulic clutch... you have to bleed it just like you do a car clutch, and I've seen that part get skipped more than once during a clutch adjustment.
If it is a linkage clutch, it's possible the clutch itself is still properly adjusted, but the linkages aren't.
Or it could've been adjusted way the hell out of wack.
You're gonna want to get that rectified ASAP... aside from hindering your cruise, it'll also prevent you from running a regen. -
Any luck with getting everything working buddy? I have the same issue now, clutch spring went out out, a local mechanic fixed it, now it don't work still but my clutch is super tight
