It shouldnt. The cruise control senses by the switch on the pedal not by the lights.

Where do you find the fuse for the cruise control on a 2000 Ford Focus?

What would cause the cruise control to stop working the light on the dash ison?

Check your tail lights. If they are stuck on the switch might be bad. The brake switch will cancel the cruise. If a light has a ground fault the voltage will feed back and cancel the cruise. Those are a couple places to start looking. If that's not it, it's probably a little more severe.

How do you install a brake light switch with cruise in a 1990 Jeep Cherokee?

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.


What if your cruise control went out on a 2003 chevy venture could it be a fuse or what?

I had this same problem with my 2003 Venture. The Cheverolet dealership told me that the cruise contol is directly linked to the brake lights. The simplest and cheapest place to start would be to check your brake lights...if they are not working, you will not have cruise control.


2002 Tahoe no cruise control or fender mounted brake lights?

No cruise control or fender mounted brake lights on a 2002 Tahoe could mean a short in the wiring or the ground wire has failed. No cruise control is also a result of a bad oxygen sensor. Most GM made vehicles have two oxygen sensors.

The cruise control may not work is there is a problem with the brakes. Check to ensure that the cruise lights come on in the dash. Also, check all the vacuum lines to see if there is any issue.

Why two brake light switches in a 1988 240 Volvo?

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.
