Brake Switch (Cruise Control): Adjustments

Cruise Control And Stoplamp Switch Installation:

The release switch assembly and the stoplamp switch assembly cannot be adjusted until after the brake booster pushrod is assembled to brake pedal assembly. The cruise control release switch and the stoplamp switch are adjusted together. Incorrect adjustment could cause the cruise control system to not work properly. For more information about the stoplamp switch adjustment, refer to Brakes. Brakes and Traction Control

Adjust

2. Twist switch to lock into desired position.
