Just been out this evening, and on the way out, I used the cruise control with no problem. On the way back, I went to use my cruise again, but it did not work? at the same time I have noticed that the brake lights have also stopped working, I presume that they are linked, as when you press the brake, the cruise disengages?

I have checked the stupid littler fuse, and that looks ok, does this sound like the switch has gone faulty? I would not have thought that the fuse would cause the cruise not to work, as it is not directly connected to the cicuit.

HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP

Hi Flapper,

I am going to give the dealer a call in the morning, to see if they can check it out, it seems strange that it worked OK, then less than 2 hours later stopped. Not the highest of quality parts though, brake light switches.

Your discs should be done in the next day or so, and I will send them on.

Cheers

Stu
