    ok, one more time. Pedal swicth is used for ECM. Pressure switch is located in air switch manyfold, looks like biggest one, but it is ok, becouse brake light is OK

    There are two switches for the brakes in the manifold usually at the bottom on both sides, they are conected by one wire, and ground the system one is for the trailor one for the truck. Under the top dash pannel is the air switch that turns off the fast idle, when the trailor is loaded.
    Just a thought!

    Figured it out....had an open pressure switch in a spot where it was supposed to be closed. That's the reason the cruise would work with the service brake in the down position, ecm was getting backward signals
