Hey y'all.
Just got my truck out of the shop the other day. Had the clutch go out-had it replaced with a new clutch, pilot bearing and flywheel resurfaced. It's a 98 W900L with just short of 1.5 million on the clock.
When I got back on the road I noticed that neither the Jake or cruise ctrl is working. My first thought was maybe a fuse or relay...Unfortunately the labels in the fuse panel are hard to read. So I got my test light and checked all the fuses, which were fine. I would try a good relay out, but even using the Googles I am having a hard time finding a fuse panel schematic that I can read on my tablet.
So, anyone have a link to a good image I can try? Also, any other ideas on why they aren't working? I pulled the switch panel out and made sure nothing was loose or unhooked and all was OK.
Thanks in advance.
No Jake brake or Cruise control

I am not a mechanic and don't claim to be one but I had a 379 years ago that did this same thing. All it was was the spring on the clutch pedal. The pedal wouldn't fully release and this caused cruise and jake to not work.
Rideandrepair, flood, Bean Jr. and 2 others Thank this. -
my first thought would be clutch switch. I bet if you have auto shut down idle timer to kill the engine it doesn't work either. Or high idle

Rideandrepair Thanks this. -
I'm not familiar with the clutch switch. I'm guessing it's by the clutch somewhere? -
I would say clutch switch too. Look under the cab, usually the linkage hits it somewhere
Mudguppy Thanks this. -

No not really gup, I'm trying to think how to explain it. It will be a two wire switch with a long spring looking piece for the on/off or open/closed. Wait on a kdub with a hung pedal its under the dash. My Pete is under the cab but its a whole diff set up
-
Oh, okay. So I need to pull the dash cover off under there then. I'll check it out. Thx. bro.
-
It's either the Brake or Clutch Switch or the Throttle Pedal Position Sensor that is attached to your Accelerator Pedal or it could be the Accelerator Pedal itself.
-
Yea that cover underneath. You should hear a click when moving the pedal first little bit
Mudguppy Thanks this.
