Default Wanted Cruise control Brake and Clutch switches

I have come to the conclusion that it may be the Brake and clutch switches that are stopping my cruise retrofit working,

so has anyone out there got some please...

What makes you think its the switches Martin ??

I had to swap them around when i did my retrofit and the clutch switch is a ****** to seat properly (you think its pushed in as its firm but its not).In the end i seated it properly but getting at it from the top of the dash rather than reaching up and double jointing.

Im sure i have a spare white switch though if needed

the clutch switch was in the car already(white) so not sure of it, i got a black brake switch with the parts of the donor car, will have a go at reseating the clutch switch to see if it makes a difference

Clutch switch stopped mine from working,not in contact with the pedal,Lates disjointed his arm and did the deed.Had to swap the White for Black on the brake pedal,works like a new one............

Anyone have a clutch switch? Think mine might be broken? Pedal doesnt seem to be in contact with the switch (white switch).

Will have a bash at re-seating... but it seemed in the correct place. Mine is standard factory fit.

Cheers
