Default Help Cruise control stopped working

I have just replaced the clutch master cylinder on my ZTT CDTI and whilst out today cruise control is not working.

Does it need to be re activated as I removed the battery to fix the clutch if so how do I do that.

More likely you've disturbed the connections to the pedal switches

The micro switch to detect that the clutch pedal has been pressed is not seated correctly, you need to re-engage by feel at the top of the clutch pedal, it feels like a square block and needs to be pulled towards you I think, you will hear and feel a click when its back engaged.

Yep with the pedal pushed down, reach up and push the switch down as low as it will go, and then slowly let the pedal come up and the switch will reset itself to the correct position.
