CRUISE CONTROL

The speed control system is designed to disengage when the clutch pedal is

depressed. This is accomplished with a clutch switch. The speed control system

disengage function is operated by opening the circuit between the speed control

module and the brake lamps. This prevents engine over speed when the clutch is

depressed and the speed control system is engaged.

The disengagement switch is a plunger switch that operates when the clutch

pedal is depressed and the pedal moves away from the switch plunger. The

switch is adjustable and attaches to a mounting bracket on the clutch module

With the clutch pedal in full up position, resistance should be less than 5 ohms.

With the clutch pedal depressed, the circuit should be open.

Vehicles equipped with automatic transmission use a shorting plug instead of a

clutch switch. Make sure the plug is installed and has good contact.
