Brake Switch (Cruise Control): Service and Repair

REMOVAL






1. Disconnect the deactivator switch electrical connector.
2. Twist the deactivator switch counterclockwise slightly and remove.

INSTALLATION
1. Install the bracket. Tighten the screw to 7.6-10.4 Nm (67-92 Lb-In).

NOTE: Inspect the deactivator switch bracket for damage. If necessary, remove the screw and replace with a new bracket. Be sure the guide tab is aligned in the slot on the brake pedal.

2. While slightly depressing the brake pedal, insert a new deactivator switch and turn counterclockwise until it locks in place.
3. Release the brake pedal.

NOTE: In the installed position, with the brake pedal applied, the deactivator switch is closed. Be sure the two pins of the switch are aligned alike before releasing the brake pedal.

4. Connect the electrical connector.
