    There is a microswitch for both the clutch and brake pedals. You should be able to push each pedal down a touch and here a click. If not the cruise control will not function properly. Over time you'll get a sag in the pedal and if you hit a bump, the cruise will shut off. The micro switch is easy to adjust, you'll have to remove the kick panels under the dash. Theres a bolt that takes a 10mm wrench, loosen it and set the switch accordingly. Hope this helps!:biggrin_25519:

    thanks I will check out the clutch switch, I adjusted brake switch recently,so don't think that is the culprit.

    usually it is the clutch switch. you can try lifting it up with your foot to see if that is the problem, if so just a minor adjustment should fix the problem.

    Yeah mine did the same thing, adjustment on the clutch switch. If that doesn't work, look at the TPS.
