Common issue...if the brake light swith is not working; the cruise control will not engage and your brake lights will not go on. replacing switch is easy and inexpensive...its located in the upper part of the brake pedal.
On most vehicle the brake switch is one way to shut the cruise off.
It's near the brake pedal or brake light switch.... It deactivates cruise control
There are two. The brake light switch and the cruise control cut off switch. You are probably talking about the cruise control cut off switch. When you depress the brake pedal, the brake lights come on and the cruise control stops. Hope this helps
On the brake pedal.
One for brake lights, one for cruise control. If you hit the brakes when using cruise control, that second switch is what tells the control modules that the brake is being depressed.
at the top behind brake pedal, don't remove the lower switch it for the cruise control
Check the fuse. Then check the wiring.

The cruise control switch on a 1993 Lincoln Town car is attached to the master brake cylinder under the hood. Ford had a recall on this car because the cruise control switch could lead to a fire.
Start by removing the connections for the cruise control and brake lights, then remove the bolt that holds the switch to the brake pedal. Once the brake pedal is loose the switch is held on the brake pushrod by a bushing with nylon retaining washers. Carefully remove one washer and slide the bushing out, the switch can now be removed from the pushrod. Installation is the reverse; line up the hole on the switch with the hole on the pushrod, make sure the tabs for the cruise control and brake lights are facing properly. Reinstall the bushing and replace the other nylon washer, replace the bolt and tighten. Lastly connect the brake lights and cruise control.
cruise control switch
No. The Cruise Control is controlled by the engine ECM. If your cruise control isn't working, you probably either have a bad switch to actuate the cruise control, or a brake pedal switch which is in constant contact, and thus telling the computer it's engaged when it isn't.
