    When the brake is applied the cruise control does not cancel, I have replaced, the stop and all the pressure sensors in the manifold (pictured). I am assuming there is another switch/sensor somewhere? I have searched threads and haven't been able to find this info. Any help would be appreciated

    Does it cancel if you pull the Johnny bar - tap the clutch - toggle cruise switch on dash?

    And - do tractor brake lights activate on pedal brake push/Johnson valve?

    Yes, the clutch will kill the cruise control. The cruise toggles work normal (,high idel, ect). The brake lights do work as normal as well. The hand brake does activate the stop lights too. But neither the foot brake or hand valve will cancel the cruise control when applied.

    I’ve got a 1995 - the ground circuit for the cruise had been hacked into for an accessory, messed up the cruise circuit.

    Unit new to you?

    I believe this is the is the sensor. Have you checked that one of the wires are hot?

    The engine is not seeing brake applied signal.

    What engine? Has it ever worked?
